I was using Bitwarden for a few years, it is a great option. Once you've adjust your workflow over to it I doubt you'd miss 1pass
I recently switched to Proton Pass as I've moved over to their ecosystem, it's it'll pretty early days and it's got it's problems but I am finding it reliable so far
Long term KeePass user here. I switched to Bitwarden last year. I'd say if you're happy with 1password then don't worry.
You’re all awesome. So much feedback for me to work with.
I’d say the vast majority are recommending Bitwarden (or Vaultwarden should I want to self host), with lots of shoutouts for 1Password as well. Honourable mentions for KeePass as well as a few others.
I’ll continue to run Bitwarden in parallel to 1Password for a little while longer to see if I prefer one over the other. I’ll definitely look into self hosting it as well, although I don’t currently have a domain name so would either have to get one or do the slightly more convoluted method of getting self-signed certificates.
Thanks all for taking the time to indulge me — very much appreciated.
Edit: apparently that’s no longer true and I just didn’t notice: https://support.1password.com/autofill-behavior/
~I use 1Password, and I’m generally satisfied, but what really really sucks is that it only works with domains, but neither subdomains nor ports.~
~So if you’re running your own server that gets annoying extremely fast, because you will have a very long list of suggestions to wade through.~
With Bitwarden (IIRC) one issue is that you cannot save a password when you’re offline, and – again IIRC – it doesn’t even drop a warning about that.
Also good to know, thanks.
I feel your pain with the subdomains - I have a load of Docker containers that I access via reverse proxy and I get a list of every container’s credentials and have to scroll through and select them. Not the end of the world, but annoying for sure.
Yeah, I have a vaultwarden docker just to store the PW for all the other services there… 😂
My work uses 1 Password. It feels relatively safe. They claim that if you don't have your master key they can't restore your passwords. Can not ensure the validity of that claim.
Personally I use Bitwarden and KeePass for my passwords. They are both open source and audited by 3rd parties. I trust them.
Haven't used Bitwarden, but I've heard good things about it.
Until recently I was using Google Password manager and a half-hearted attempt a "system" for unique passwords. Luckily, I wised up and decided to raise my game... after a bit of research, I went with 1Password, and I've been very happy with it.
The integrations are okay, though not perfect. But the thing that has been most useful for me is the Watchtower stuff that basically gamified my security and forced me to change repeated or insecure passwords. I feel in much better shape now, and feel very confident in 1Password's encryption model. So, for me at least, it has been worth the money.
Boo, Google! Haha j/k, each to their own 🙂
1Password has been one of my go-to apps for years now, so I’m clearly happy to pay the $80 a year or whatever it is (I’m a Brit but I think it’s around that price). But it’s very good to know that I can get the exact same (more or less) functionality in Bitwarden for $10 a year. And I have the option to self host on my Docker stack on my NAS should the mood take me.
I absolutely wholeheartedly agree about Watchtower — that’s a nice little piece of functionality. I saw Bitwarden can check if your passwords have been involved in a data breach, but nowhere near as many little add-ins as Watchtower. It feels like a credit score for your passwords 🙂
Nah, it's okay. The google chrome built in password manager is one of the worst options
I'm on the 1password train. I like it, they're professional, and their extension works much better than lastpass
I've been using (and paying for) Bitwarden for a few years now. There are slicker solutions but it does the job for me and I don't really see any need to change.
I'm using bitwarden. The free version has everything I need, but I pay for the premium because I want them to continue.
I have no experience with BitWarden, but I do like 1Password. I previously used LastPass, and 1Password has much better browser/device integration, in my experience. I've been happy with it and intend to keep my family subscription.
I’ve been using Bitwarden for years now, and I really enjoy the seamless experience across platforms. I use Windows at work, Mac/Linux/Windows at home, I also have an iPhone, iPad, Android tablets, and a Chromebook. Bitwarden works great everywhere. I originally chose it because it’s open source so I could host it myself if I wanted to.
I actually pay for Premium ($10/year) because I wanted to use FIDO hardware keys, but you also get 1GB for encrypted file attachments, which is handy.
BitWarden does everything I want, so I have a hard time considering paying far more for 1Password which does the same thing.
I used 1Pass and really enjoyed the native app for a while until they forced everyone to a monthly subscription. Then they moved to electron for the MacOS app and I dropped them. Bitwarden has everything that 1Pass did for me and it’s free. The only thing that Bitwarden lacks is CoreUI animations and fluid transitions (everything is instant when you click it).
Highly recommend Bitwarden.
Bitwarden is very good, but if you are already comfortable with 1Password I don't think it is worth the switch. A lot of people (myself included) just recently switched from LastPass to Bitwarden due to LPs issues and breaches. But 1Password is still very solid and highly recommended.
I moved from 1Password to Bitwarden because I was struggling to pirate the former.
NGL, I think it is kinda stupid to use a hacked software as important as a password manager, same as with an antivirus, so for me the way to go has been to selfhost Bitwarden, haven't looked back since that.
I used LastPass Families for a few years, switched to 1Password for one year, and am now on Bitwarden. For me, it was the native MacOS app, so I can auto-fill apps besides just the browser (e.g. game and productivity software logins).
KeepassXC, synced with Nextcloud to all my devices. Browser plugins and android app. Diceware master pass phrase.
There's no point switching if you are using either of these two, so I'd just keep 1Password.
I guess one is considerably cheaper than the other, so there’s that.
But yeah, other than that, no real reason to switch if there is parity on the functionality.
Barely for a family subscription that they are using, I think 1Password is worth the extra for the polish it has and their support. I suppose if you had a family of 6 then Bitwarden gets a lot more value back as I believe 1Password's is only 5 members included and $1 for extra beyond that.
