We've listed the best business password managers. If you’re on a tight budget, it’s wise to go with a free tool like KeePass but we consider LastPass the best to choose if it’s within your budget. Businesses with adequate IT budgets will be better off paying for LastPass, where you know there’s a dedicated support team to contact if anything goes wrong. The main advantage KeePass has over LastPass is that it’s free, but this benefit skews towards individual users. LastPass also has a much more user-friendly interface than KeePass. You can access LastPass through a web interface or mobile and desktop apps, while KeePass is only accessible via a desktop app. For one, it delivers a much better user experience than KeePass. LastPass and KeePass are both great tools, but we consider LastPass the superior option. Just download the app, and you’re good to go. You don’t need to pay any dime to use it, which is a great advantage for individual users. In contrast, KeePass is a free and open-source tool. It's worth seeing what LastPass promo codes are currently available too for other discounts. But, note that if you represent a large organization with hundreds to thousands of employees, you can contact LastPass’s sales team to work out a custom plan that incorporates a bulk discount. Businesses with less than 50 personnel pay $4 per month per LastPass user, while those with a headcount above 50 pay $6 / £6 / AUD$9 monthly per user. The family plan costs $4 / £4 / AUD$6 monthly and covers up to five users. The personal plan for LastPass costs $3 / £3 / AUD$5 monthly. You must pay for a premium plan to make the best use of the platform, and there are separate plans for personal, family, and corporate use. LastPass has a free tier, but it’s limited to one device.

#KEEPASS. SOFTWARE#

KeePass feels more like software from the old times compared to its rival– you're more likely to get confused using KeePass than LastPass. However, the interface is not as modern and intuitive as LastPass's.

The KeePass Windows app offers solid performance that user reviews often tout. The extensions can be slow to load and may slow down other browsing activities. We also observed a pattern of customer complaints about the LastPass browser extension on Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and other supported browsers. Too many credentials make the app take longer to load and switch between features, although the experience varies depending on the specifications of your device higher-end devices experience better speed than lower-end ones. However, you may observe a slowdown in LastPass’s performance if you store too many credentials, think over a thousand. The interface is modern and spacious, letting users switch between features with ease. Granted, the fact that the password entries stored within will have to be addressed, but this is a problem regardless of your password vault solution (or lack thereof).LastPass is accessible via a web interface and a mobile or desktop app, and it offers solid performance on all platforms. If someone leaves the organization who had access to the password database, generate a new key and re-distribute it, and you're back in business, even if they copied the key file. One way to handle this is to distribute the key file to all admins and as long as they have that, they can unlock the password database. In fact, in version 1.09, if the password database is opened by another user, it's smart enough to tell the next person opening it the situation and asking if that user wants to open the database in read-only or normal mode. Looking at it from a shared location, KeePass can be used by an organization to store sensitive logins, such as the root password for MySQL, the sa account password, the usernames and passwords for the SQL Server service accounts, etc. KeePass 2.49 mainly features user interface and integration enhancements, and various other minor new features and improvements.

#KEEPASS. UPGRADE#

It is recommended to upgrade from any previous 2.x version to 2.49. I've also run it as a straight executable from a shared network drive. KeePass 2.49 has been released today You can get it here: Download KeePass 2.49. Therefore, you can stick on a USB drive and take it with you.
