Reviews of Bitwarden
Best password manager
Comments: Based on the price the value is exceptional. Bitwarden is part of my workflow a long time ago.
Pros:
Beside the fact that Bitwarden is completely open source and validated by security companies, it has a ton of functionality that really improves security at home and within an organization.
Cons:
I can't really tell a lot. Sometimes I had to initiate the sync manually when I had to use the password between devices, but that is usually rare.
Alternatives Considered:
Highly recommend over other password vaults
Pros:
Organized way of saving and protecting passwords, clearly very secure, and I love that it also generates passwords that meet specific criteria too.
Cons:
The autofill function doesn't consistently work on many web pages which can be frustrating but easily overcome.
Very confusing for set up and use
Comments: Very, very frustrating. Also disappointed because I had invested a fair amount of time comparing different password managers and thought this one would work. Instead it turned into a huge waste of time.
Pros:
That it was free - I appreciate that at least I did not lose money when I deleted my account.
Cons:
User interface, help, instructions, etc. very hard to follow for beginner. It was difficult getting started, and I never could find a satisfactory answer on why there are both a web app and a browser extension. There are also mobile and desktop apps. I could not tell if we needed all of the apps installed, and if not, why would we have desktop, web, and extension all on same computer?
Alternatives Considered:
Great professional password manager
Comments: Great password manager, easy to roll out across the organization.
Pros:
The ability to seperate personal and work passwords, automatic form fillers, collections to seperate passwords per client.
Cons:
I can't really think of anything to be honest.
Bitwarden review
Pros:
Bitwarden provides a high level of security and stores all sensitive information locked from external actors.
Cons:
So far, I have not found any downsides to Bitwarden. I hope to keep it that way.
