Overall Satisfaction with RoboForm

RoboForm helps me manage dozens of passwords I use regularly for business and personal purposes. It saves passwords automatically if you use the RoboForm browser extension. I also use its password generator, which I can format to a specific number of characters, character types, e.g., lower and upper case letters, numbers, and symbols. The software rates the strength of the password. I use it on a Windows desktop, Mac laptop, and iPhone.
  • Generates complex passwords based on specifications I set, with strength ratings by RoboForm.
  • Saves (stores) passwords in the cloud accessible with a "master password", which Roboform itself does not know (so don't lose that password - it's the only one you need to write down in a safe place).
  • Cross-platform synchronization.
  • They have always responded within 24-48 hours to email support requests.
  • Recommend periodic purging of unused passwords.
  • Offer a "compromised password" alert feature.
  • Don't remind me about a recent update as often as you do now. (I might be able to control this on my desktop's notification settings?)
  • Password generator.
  • Cross-platform synch.
  • Reliable and secure.
  • I've never had my identity stolen based on my personal or solo business use. (I did have it stolen when I worked for the federal government!)
  • None of the passwords I've created using the RoboForm password generator has been compromised - I do check on compromised passwords via Safari browser's program for example.
  • Saves time and money because of the above, and lowers my "hassle factor" because I don't have to keep some kind of elaborate password spreadsheet, which I would have to password protect ... but then where do I store that password?
As noted earlier, I have not compared RoboForm with other password managers because it is the only password manager I have ever used and I have been satisfied with the software for at least 12 years (I frankly can't remember when I started using it but I know I was using it in 2010 so 12 years is my best guess).

I cannot speak to enterprise or larger company use since I am a solo business owner. But for solo, very small, and small businesses it is a reliable, easy-to-use password manager. The cost has always seemed reasonable to me but I admit I have not shopped around because I've been happy with RoboForm - it is the only password manager I have ever used. A personal account, which is what I have, is $23.88 USD per year - they usually have a discount for the first year. If I had employees the business account might be worth it although I haven't investigated it. (It costs more - $39.95 per year per user for a one-year subscription). Discounts are available for 3-year and 5-year subscriptions.
