Overall Satisfaction with SplashID

SplashID is used by the owner and manager to securely maintain app passwords, it is not used organization wide. The password vault is stored locally on our server, so there is no risk of a hack on SpashID compromising our valuable passwords. It is also used to generate new passwords, so we don't use the same passwords for every app.
  • Generates new passwords
  • Stores passwords offline
  • Maintains usernames and notes for specific applications in one place
  • Tabbing through password creation is not intuitive
  • The app is slow at unlocking to reveal passwords
  • There are a limited number of fields you can use for each password making it difficult if you have lots of information to store about one app
  • It is not easy to categorize passwords and stay orginized
  • SplashID keeps our passwords off the cloud
  • SplashID allows us to have unique passwords for each app without having to remember them or store them in an unsecured manner
SplashID is not nearly as comprehensive as LastPass. LastPass is much easier to orginize and create folders for certain categories. It is also easier to launch logins stored in the vault. The only benefit SplashID provides is that you can store passwords offline. SplashID is better on the pocket book because it is a one time fee where LastPass is subscription based.
SplashID is pretty usable, but there are definitely some key downfalls. Like I previously mentioned, it lacks easy organization. It is also not very user friendly to enter passwords. The password generation tool could use some additional options to remove certain special characters because on more than one occasion I have had to adjust a password to remove a prohibited special character.

Do you think SplashID delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with SplashID's feature set?

No

Did SplashID live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of SplashID go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy SplashID again?

No

SplashID is really only well suited if you are looking to store passwords offline on your own server. There is no risk of them being leakedin a large scale breach of SplashID, but then it is only up to your security. Since it is not stored online, there is also not a way to restore the master password, so don't forget it!
