Bitwarden, the one and only password manager that allows me to host my own stuff while giving me full support on mobile apps! The only limitation is that you will have to pay extra for the haveibeenpwned API integration (which is included in the hosted version)
@@PeteMatheson thank you. I did do the trial and imported all my passwords from Edge but I have 1500+ and many duplicates. It is daunting. Is there a way to clean it up in there? I also need to change passwords on all of my sites. I use the same 3-4 for everything and need to get my stuff in order. Thank you for your time!
Great video, I appreciate you for doing these comparisons! I just had a few minor moments of questioning i.e. when you mentioned a feature of one password manager but said nothing about it being there or the lack of with another pw manager. You mentioned that Synology C2 is the only one that let's you choose where your data is stored but as far as I know 1Password lets you (kinda) choose as well between US, CA and EU. I think there was another thing about 1Password that caught my attention but it was so minor I already forgot. Again, great video!
Hey Beni! Thanks for the comments. Really good spot - I actually missed that, I think because I've been with them for a while now that I've not seen anywhere obvious whilst using the product to know that my data is in X location, vs Synology which clearly shows you each time you log in. But yes, it does look like you can select your location in 1password so that's great! Appreciate the comments!
As an "ignorant" user that just uses the built in google/ apple and Microsoft stuff I NEED a video to teach me what justifies paying 1 password, I understand security but these free and comfortable options are that bad? Has Microsoft ever had a breach?
Thanks Pete, i look forward every year for this video. Personally i was on LastPass when it was free, when they "forced" us to go to a paid version i was a free agent and actually went for Dashlane, I like Dashlane until they removed the Desktop App. So when i saw your videos i migrated again to 1Password. Looks like this year ill just stick to what i have.
Thanks for the informative video! Could also be interesting to consider the payment options as part of “features” or “pricing”. Having one or multiple means of paying for a service is an important security consideration in itself for some.
i love bitwarden i also use it and i do agree that its ease of use is where it struggles and it is more for advanced users. Just personal opinion i think every password manager has its place for a certain type of person non are perfect but they all have there strengths and weaknesses
Hello..1password family link is not working!!.. I tried a couple of times and no discounts as you said?!..the same 4.99$ monthly as stated before payment.!.can you help me?
I have used Keepass for years but may try another PWM in the future. KP has served me well but it requires a lot of hands on management such as backups syncing between devices with USB drives and lacks a lot of functionality of the others. It does not use a vault which is a plus but also a minus.
Hey bud! I’d say nordpass has the nicer interface but bitwarden a better overall product. Nordpass also restricts the devices you can use at the same time, so if you want to use it on more than 1 device, bitwarden is the better option
@@PeteMatheson but bitwarden does not have extra layer of security features like yubikey in their free account ...so I think I should go with nordpass for free version and lots of love from INDIA
Want to thank you once again, as I started with 1Password a few years ago on your recommendation. And I am pleased I did. Not one complaint. Hope you win Lotto the week after me 🤩💰💷💷
Hey Pat! Thanks so much! Always brings a smile to my face when I see your comments 🥳 🙌🏼 It's getting kinda difficult to stay on top of them nowadays! haha
I've used most of these throughout the years and currently use 1password. This has been great for me apart from being a bit on the expensive side compared to the others. How do you feel about Synology being based in Taiwan with regards to security?
Im using Dashlane I didn't know it was a big security issue that its a browser extension only are you sure its an issue? Why would they make it browser only then? I haven't heard of any breaches. So far its working really great on pc and android. My score is a 10/10 from my experience and I have used it a few years. Interesting to see your view on it.
NordPass is good, I might do an updated video on them this year and keep the scoring going for the year as we compare others. There's a video I shot on NordPass last year and it's a nice product!
Maybe someone already asked, but why is no one reviewing the Enpass? It has an app for almost anything, and I like the ability to store vaults “offline” on a NAS.
Your review sounds quite biaised and oriented. C2 DOES have a desktop app. And IOS app too. Also, it may be of the upmost importance to you, but I wouldn't trust an external USB key that I could lose or could get stolen. Finally, I tried 1Password a few times, and I just don't like it. I don't know what it is, it just feels wrong.
Keeper has Yubi key integration as well, and had app login/password on Mac. I prefer a shared password(s) rather than the emergency user access, if I’m going to give access to someone (even if it’s a time-limited one-use password), but it’s just an option.
Just a general reminder that secret key in 1P isn’t fool proof. Secret Key is stored in plain text in Chrome Extension’s indexedDB (go see for yourself). A cleverly written contentScript might be able to gain access to that. That been said it’s already miles ahead of other PWMs.
Also your metrics some what baffles me - you are basically equating 5 pts of support for 5 pts of security. This is biased because these metrics have different weightings in the context of PWM.
@@jcap8391 1P is still the clear best. Just pointing out that 1P is not completely bullet-proof. If you use 1P + SecurityKey then it’s almost impenetrable
@petematheson Possible suggestion for next comparison/tutorial... Business version v Family version offered by password managers. Is it better to pay extra for per users under a business account, instead of using a family account. Is there any extra benefts or is it just a waste of money and time. Cheers
Except plenty of products work just fine without those modules, and you're trusting that they're not collecting any form of personal data. In reality it's low risk, but why have something you dont need
@@PeteMatheson It's not personal data at all. A crash report give the developer just information where in the code the app crashed. This combined with device model and version helps them to reproduce the crash and find/fix the bug more easily, which improves the user experience for all customers. And yes, device model and version is not really a personal information since it's not mapped or combined with an userID or your mail address. Analytics like Firebase, Adobe, etc. give the developer insights on how the user are using an app. For example they can see that a feature is not used or just used by a small group of user. Then they can decide to stop further development of this feature or remove it right away to focus on something the users really want. Or maybe they could decide to improve that feature, that more users can benefit from it. All these data is anonymously tracked and not mapped to you as a person.
@@5amba They say that it's anonymous, but in reality, they could be sneaking in stuff that can track you. Plus, collecting analytics for how the user uses the app is tracking. It's tracking how the user uses the app, which is violating users privacy. I'm not sure you actually understand the world of online privacy as much as I do. I think the best option is actually to ask the user if they want to send the crash report the next time the app is opened after a crash, as well as letting the user see what is being sent (and be able to edit it). This way, the user know what is being sent, and is also able to just not send it.
@@PeteMatheson Thank you for answering the question. :) I used your affiliate link to get 1password, after having used keepass for quite a while and I have to say, the user experience is night and day. I've had 1Password ~10 years ago and it's upgraded its game quite a bit since then. Anyway. I was just mentioning NordPass, because the guy I share my office with recently got it. They are one of the younger competitors in this space and as such are still moving fast to implement new things. He primarily got it, because 1Password can only be purchased with a creditcard and not services like paypal or direct debit.There's still a significant amount of Germans that do not own a credit card and some companies can't get their head around that or don't think the german market is important enough... (We do own bank cards, but they are so called "Giro cards" and even of those that own a mastercard or visa, most actually have a debit card from them, not a credit card). Well that was quite the tangent, sorry about that. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it and it helped me out in making my decision.
10/10 for 1Password security? Might just be me but I don't see a way to enable Yubikey MFA without first setting up TOTP? They also expect you to print out the secret key, write your password down and keep it with your birth certificate.
What's more secure than printing something out, storing it with your birth certificate, putting it in a fireproof safe and keeping it safe at the bottom of the ocean!? 👀 Seriously though :) No issues I've seen with having Yubikey only with no other TOTP - what problems are you having?
Ah gotcha - you have to do it from the web interface rather than the app - but I'm not near my machine right now so can't check! I do still think the Yubikey is more secure than TOTP as it's less likely to be broken into
He gave it 0 on all scores and told people to avoid it. I'd rather he adds that into the video for people who aren't aware of all the Lastpass controversies.
I would not trust that company, read their Terms and Conditions to make sure you know what you are agreeing to. I always think "the next Encrochat" and wonder about some of the people using the "secure email". ALL email is encrypted and decrypted on their system before and after it is stored, it arrives in plain text and is sent out in plain text to other ISPs and mail companies and can be read by anyone. They ask for a phone number which is a joke. They can see all your encrypted email before and after it is encrypted and email to and from the App or browser is only Encryption In Transit, none of the email is End To End encrypted as it's all plain text outside their storage. The only way to keep it secure is to send between proton users and hope none of them have a forwarding address set up that takes it all in plain text outside. Never believe the wild claims on sites, they also comply with Law Enforcement and hand over information and tell you they do this. When or if they can't, or refuse, the datacentres hosting equipment do it for Law Enforcement.
Ew no thanks! haha Mostly mobile, looks like you can get it working on desktop via only Chrome and Microsoft Edge. No desktop client. No custom fields (I don't think) or breach notifications etc (I think!) Will review in more detail but initial thoughts are that it looks to be a very half baked password manager in comparison to other options (Not saying that my review is exhausting all others as there are tonnes of them out there of course!)
this is a password manager review for mac users and you're always considering how robust the system is always asuming the users are not so inteligent, it makes sense? for some yes but to the point of being useless. I mean great video, but you're going into topics about security that would make difference for security freaks only. Who needs 4 layers of security? A big main key with at least 22 characters of specials, low and high case and number and a second authentication method and you're done. Nothing can break that.
Not sponsored by anybody. I don't hate them, but I have zero idea why anybody would use or recommend a password manager that has consistently been breached every single year and rug pulled their users. I keep saying people shouldn't use LastPass in my videos, yet people still use LastPass. Therefore I keep repeating that nobody should use LastPass. But people keep using them. And then they get breached, again. Rinse and repeat? lol
@@PeteMatheson do you wonder why people still use them? Rinse and repeat your message only makes people ignore it. It's like telling someone "don't touch that hot item"... You know exactly what will happen... 😂
From your video I decided to sign up for 1Password Family, but sadly the 25% discount code does not seem to apply when signing up. It shows on the signup screen, but on the credit card page it says I will be charged $4.99/mo annually after my free trial ends. :(
Oh! That shouldn’t be the case. I can speak to them to check the link, also just pop them an email and I’m sure they’ll correct the billing for you. I’ll see what I can do!
@@PeteMatheson It's safe, open source, and actually pretty decent password manager.. However, the biggest down side for me is the UI, it's very boring and basic (old school), user experience in mobile is quite laggy as well. I prefer modern look UI like 1password and Dashlane. If only bitwarden had modern UI like Dashlane or 1password, then it would be the perfect Password manager for me (I'd be willing to pay Bitwarden if that's the case). Until then, I'd stick to 1password.
