Overall Satisfaction with KeePass

We are using KeePass across our organization as an alternative password manager. We have the master database setup on a server and have the clients access it via the synchronize method. This allows all users to access the passwords yet only have to keep 1 database file. We also have different users with their own KeePass file for their own personal passwords. Both options keep passwords stored in an encrypted file so they are only accessible by users that have the correct password.
  • Encrypted database of password
  • Easy to use
  • No cost
  • No easy way to manage access for multiple users
  • No built-in OTP generator
  • No built-in browser extension
  • No cost
  • Simple
  • Encrypted passwords
  • Helped improve password security
  • Allows multiple users access to passwords
KeePass is the most simple of the password managers, but it also means it doesn't scale as well and doesn't have all the features some of the other options have. IT Glue is a much better choice for company-wide management of passwords but it has high costs and is much more than just a password manager. LastPass is probably closer to what KeePass can do, but offers the ability to access passwords from all devices such as computers and phones. KeePass is better for being free and is best for use on a single computer.

[KeePass] works extremely well for personal work passwords and personal-use passwords for home. It allows users to remember 1 single complex password in order to gain access to the entire database of passwords. It doesn't work so well if you want to sync passwords to multiple devices such as your computer or phone. It can be done, but it's not simple.
