Password managers?

I'm thinking of investing in a password manager such as Nordpass or Roboform which seem to be the most highly rated and about £0.75p a month.
Any views, pro's - com's on password managers would be most welcome.
Thanks.

I've used Lastpass (free) for years without bother. But recent restrictions on what type of device you can use it have driven me toward Bitwarden (free).
It does everything I need it to and I use it on phone, PC, and Laptop, all nicely synced.

I dumped LastPass after their security issues, now using Bitwarden (Sub is $10/yr). Found it works well on all devices.1

Paid-for Bitwarden here, all good. Allows sharing of selected passwords across accounts, useful for families. Local encrypted database on devices so doesn't need online access to use. Couple of times I've had to contact CS they've been very good.1

Free Bitwarden for me. No issues and syncs seamlesslyThings that are differerent: draw & drawer, brought & bought, loose & lose, dose & does, payed & paid2

Google password manager also useful if you're in their ecosystem (e.g. use Chrome, android devices, etc).Know what you don't1

I've been using Roboform for many years.
It's easy to use, no issues, but it costs around £23 per annum.
There are discounts available for first time users.1 -
1. Two good password managers are "Bitwarden" and "Proton Password Manager".

2. You can try their free version. If you are happy you can then always get their paid version.
Have used the free version of Bitwarden for at lest 3 years and am happy with it.
3. Suggest you stay away from LastPass PWM.

I'd say no, but all of the recommended products above offer free or trial versions - install one or two and try them out.TUVOK said:Are they difficult to set up?
