Roboform vs LastPass

Hi all,

I hope people are having a good comping year!

Our Roboform is due to expire next week, before I renew I wondered what most people use. I have used RF and LP previously and wondered if there was now a benefit I was missing with one over the other?

There may be other ones that I have missed that people are using

Good luck all with comping this year!

    I used to use Roboform and found it good but then I bought a new Macbook and can now autofill from my saved details on google chrome on the Macbook so no need for a paid subscription anymore.

    Long ago I used free Roboform before using it together with free Lastpass as some would fill that the other one didn't, then dropped Roboform as LP had a better free package (didn't use either for passwords) still have LP but generally use autofill on Chrome.

    There is also free Dashlane which I have never used

    I have been using roboform for donkeys years and never paid a penny works perfect for me.
    I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus

    Roboform for me. I've also just had to renew this week but find it worth it as I use it on multiple devices. I just wish that they would treat us the same as new customers with their discounts. I also wasn't impressed that this time I couldn't use it for free on my main computer as it turned over to read only mode even when I went onto their website and downloaded the free version.

    I have never used a pay version of any of them or generally used them as more than a form filler - the free version of Lastpass  allowed multiple devices of the same type to be used, that made it handy compared to the free roboform version as at one point I used computers in different rooms - Norton includes a password manager (never used that bit) but Chrome has autofill and that with lastpass is enough for everything for me

    I hadn't paid for any either until 4 years ago but thought it was worth it because I get to use it a lot and get my moneys worth out of it with using it on pc, laptop, phone and ipad. Originally I only used it on pc but find it great on other devices when I am out and about and have forgotten my password. I also used to use last pass but very rare I use it these days as roboform does practically everything I need it to do.

    I don't use anything for passwords (other than a very thin notebook), the majority of (competition) sites I use don't require a password either and I don't use tech when I am out and about so I have no use for the "extras" that come with any of the paid packages.
