Good Documentation, reliable, zero failure and fast
I often use another password manager as well to keep my passwords separate, ensuring redundancy. But one simple thing Bitwarden could improve is providing an option to duplicate credentials. Often, you're creating many sets of credentials for the same thing. If they all have the same information, notes, login, collection, and naming - all you're changing is the password. The ability to duplicate credential records quickly would be a big win. It doesn't do that right now. A feature I appreciate in another app, EndPass, is a shortcut that opens a mini window for quick access to credentials. Bitwarden could benefit from something like this, in addition to duplicating credentials. Other functionalities like team management and collections in Bitwarden are already simple. It doesn't need much more. We appreciate the simplicity and slow evolution rather than being overwhelmed with unnecessary features. It doesn't need to be pretty, just functional and accessible. And accessibility is crucial. If you're deploying to many people resistant to change, accessibility can be an objection. When someone claims they can't use a tool because of an accessibility issue, you're faced with a compliance challenge. Bitwarden does well in this regard. Still, accessibility should never be overlooked in favor of features. As you add more features, you potentially increase complexity and risk.

It's an inexpensive, scalable solution that has improved our security
We use Keeper to store passwords We previously kept our passwords in an Excel file. Using Keeper makes us more secure.  Keeper has strong security features.  The password rotation feature could be improved. I have used Keeper for three years. I rate Keeper eight out of 10 for stability.  I…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Having all the passwords in one place is helpful."
"The customer service and support are good. The technician is on time and the follow-up is amazing."
"I've found something else that is extremely valuable. Bitwarden refers to it as "emergency access". It's essentially a digital legacy where you can assign approved users who can request access. If you don't decline within a certain timeframe, they can access it in case you're incapacitated or deceased. When I last checked, only a few services offered this feature. Bitwarden had the simplest and best implementation."
"The product has a very friendly community."
"It is open source and the premium package is reasonable."
"Its integration capabilities and versatility, like the ability to securely save passwords and other critical information, make it incredibly useful."
"In our organization, we use Bitwarden for managing product credentials. Bitwarden's collection feature enables us to securely create and store credentials, and we can easily provide team members with access to the relevant collections."
"Auto login across platforms allows for no copying and pasting."
"Available for Windows platforms and also Mac OS and Linux systems."
"​The installation and its use are very simple​."
"Chrome extension and app."
"Keeper Bridge."
"I can access my passwords from any Internet connected device."
"Can create folders for specific types of information (i.e., work, personal, and school)."
"The ability to autofill the login credentials has saved me a lot of time in my day to day computing."
 

Cons

"The product could be cheaper."
"The product must be a bit more unified and refined."
"The solution should be made more secure as it has the banking sector and assets saved."
"It would be ideal if the application could be seamlessly integrated into our open-source software, especially for the purpose of enabling straightforward logging."
"I would like to log in with a master account using a passkey, that would be easy."
"Enhancing the tool by including additional security variables would be a valuable improvement."
"I often use another password manager as well to keep my passwords separate, ensuring redundancy. But one simple thing Bitwarden could improve is providing an option to duplicate credentials. Often, you're creating many sets of credentials for the same thing. If they all have the same information, notes, login, collection, and naming - all you're changing is the password. The ability to duplicate credential records quickly would be a big win. It doesn't do that right now."
"The stability of the solution can be improved."
"The user experience and the mobile app could be improved."
"The technical support has no experience."
"Possible offline access to passwords. Therefore, when internet access is unavailable, I can still access my vault."
"They could possibly add a pre-designed contact feature that would work similar to a cell phone contact feature."
"I would like to see a way to store files and photos in the next update​. If it already does this, I have yet to explore it."
"Ability to set up password profiles that can predefine custom fields and password complexity."
"Room for improvement in my eyes would be being able to share my credit cards and other types of information. The only thing they really share is passwords, and you can only do it with one password at a time. When you're trying to share it out or trying to remove it from being shared, you can't do multiple selections."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not costly. I pay $10 per month."
"I use a free version and it works well for me."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"It is an open-source tool."
"In our region, it comes at an affordable price."
"The pricing is available on the vendor's website."
"We chose their optional annual subscription; I believe we paid monthly — I thought it was a good deal."
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"Just buy the yearly subscription."
"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
"Its price is reasonable."
