Pourquoi passer à 1Password

Avantages

The concept is so simple and makes it easy to make sure you are using secure passwords for all your accounts. By only having to remember one (definitely strong) password, you no longer have to worry about reusing the same password or keeping a paper list next to your desk of all your passwords. With everything these days requiring a login, 1Password makes it easy, convenient and secure to create and store unique logins for all your online and offline accounts. You can store more than just passwords too, securely store your credit cards, passport, driver's license, bank account information as well as secure notes with whatever content you want. They make it super easy and simple to generate new passwords and logins, plus it can monitor and alert you to compromised logins as well as when 2FA is available.

Inconvénients

So far, I haven't found anything that I don't like. Any issues I've come across, their support quickly provided a solution.

Avantages

I use it on Mac and it is integrated into all the browsers I use, which are Chrome and Safari. You go to a site to log in and simply click a button, enter your master password, and you are logged in.

If you use it from the app itself, it's even easier. You just click on one button and it goes to the login page fills it in and logs you in right away.

All you have to remember is the one master password.

It even has an app on the iPhone and iPad to use, plus I have access to my most used passwords right on my Apple Watch.

Inconvénients

Every once in a while it will lose the button on Safari and I will have to reinstall it. I think this happens when Safari auto-updates. Minor, but irritating.

Avantages

The application is fast and reliable. Passwords get stored securely and what mostly fascinates me is that the auto-fill feature really works all over the websites and it can be tweaked to work on local machines. Everything can be organized into folders and tagged. Finding a password is really easy.

Inconvénients

The switch to the subscription model is understendable, but I did not like it in partiucular since I like my software licenced for a one-time fee.

Pourquoi passer à 1Password

Avantages

In my daily workflow, I use a couple of different tools, apps, and services. Since I am a privacy advocate, I use different passwords across all my accounts. It would be impossible to remember all of them. With 1Password I can not only keep track of all my account credentials, I can also make sure that I always set strong passwords. With just a few clicks I can monitor all my passwords, search for duplicates or highlight weak ones. It is pure joy to use.

Inconvénients

Every now and then, the browser extension of 1Password does some weird things. My main browser nowadays is Firefox and it happens sometimes, that the Browser Extension of 1Password does not unlock within the browser. I then need to unlock the desktop app so the browser extension does unlock too. Often, issues with the browser extension can be solved by closing and reopening the browser, not ideal but it does the trick for me.

Avantages

How would anyone survive without 1Password? 1Password not only makes it easier to capture logins, it's a central hub for all things security. There's peace of mind knowing that this information is easy to access, even while on the go. In a business setting, it's great to have vaults to share with your team.

Inconvénients

At some point, 1Password moved to a subscription model. For cost purposes, I preferred that this used to be a one-and-done price. However, the cost is worth it for ongoing security and reliability.

Avantages

I like that I can use 1Password on my phone, on my Mac, in the office or at home. It is very accessible anywhere I need a quick check on one of my online accounts. I like how 1Password integrates seemlessly in my daily workflow, whether it be checking on an old account or making sure I enter the correct password for online banking. I've never had trouble with this app.

Inconvénients

The subscription based model never worked for me. But the app is quite useful without it.

Avantages

1Password manages all my passwords and its been doing so for years. Before that, I was using a free password manager which was fine but I needed a more robust system. 1Password reputation has been solid and the company is people focused so that is always a bonus. I love that I can use my browser extensions and my apps to sign into sites I use often. I use this software countless times per day, its definitely a must have for me.

Inconvénients

So far nothing I am happy to pay for it each year, knowing that my passwords are kept neat and organized.

Avantages

Integration. The level to which 1Password has become part of my personal, family and work is a little scary. I keep any and all personal information in there. Passwords, health records, credit cards, private notes. The list could go on.

Inconvénients

The two versions 1Password and 1Password X threw me a little when I bought a new Microsoft Surface and loaded 1Password on it. I started with X before realizing that I wanted to use v7 with the browser plugin. Other than that though the software pays for itself even time I have to log in somewhere.

Pourquoi passer à 1Password

Avantages

This product saves so much time in my daily life. No longer do I have to get out my password book every time I'm logged out of a program i use daily. It's also much more secure than a password book.

Inconvénients

There's nothing I don't like about it. It does it's job.

Avantages

This app first and foremost allows you to have unique and strong passwords for every log-in. I don't know what my passwords are, and I don't need to know. They are all un-rememberable strings of gibberish which makes them very very secure. I let the app generate them for me. 1 Password does a flawless job of syncing between devices so that my passwords are always close at hand. Also a great vault for securely storing any other sensitive info. Absolutely essential for me.

Inconvénients

There are probably more features in this app than I use, but they might be good for you. Not really a con per se.

Avantages

1Password is available on a range of devices and that allows our team to safely store and have access to our passwords anywhere. The option to create personal, family or business-based "vaults" is great to help manage access. 1Password can also auto-generate safe passwords for new accounts, using a number of different options.

Inconvénients

I have been using it daily and can't think of anything negative to say about it.

Avantages

- Easy to use
- The extension for browsers, makes it easy to use and always at hand
- The password generator is really handy
- The companion apps and integration with iOS makes using it seamless
- The ability to not only store passwords, makes it a great bonus
- Very cheap in my opinion

Inconvénients

Not much, to be honest is a great safety tool. I only wish I could change passwords right on the app, and that would make it complete.

Avantages

Fluid integration with macOS and iOS. WatchTower feature audits all of my passwords for weaknesses as well as websites that were comprised. I love the password generator, and I love the various sections for storing other important bits of info that aren't passwords (e.g. credit cards, software licenses). The app is stable, and updates are fairly frequent. The company is user-focused and consumer-conscious, as reflected by its refusal to pester for app reviews and offering various means of licensing the app (one-time purchase and subscriptions).

Inconvénients

I *guess* I could do with some theming options. The app is plenty attractive, so I don't even know that I'd use them. Still, sometimes there's something comforting about having options.

Avantages

Getting the app installed was easy. Each time I type in a password, it asks to save. I can access my passwords from anywhere - phone, tablet, laptop, which is so convenient. I love that it gives you alerts if your passwords need to change.

Inconvénients

It doesn't always ask to store or update passwords when you change. For those times, it's tedious to have to go to the program and update the password.

Avantages

- Great for Mac and apple products as this is where it was first created for.
- Great UI & UX
- Integrates and syncs across all products

Inconvénients

- The installation can be a challenge for legacy users on new devices after they buy new devices

Pourquoi passer à 1Password

Avantages

I'm using the app since 2009 and never got disappointed in it. It just works!

Easy to install with or without the Apple App Store, with or without iCloud data. The app is so versatile it makes it easy to use under different environments or low network connectivity.

Inconvénients

The adoption and engagement rate is still very low. Why? Because many users or computer users in general does not seem to understand of the importance of strong passwords and keeping their passwords outside of paper or electronic notes solutions (Apple Notes, Evernote) and so on..

In a sense, the only limit of this app is that it require some user intelligence and awareness. If the users doesn't want to set up strong, unique password for each of the services you're using.

Avantages

I can easily create long complex and unique passwords for each login without having the issues of remembering them

Inconvénients

It seems a bit buggy on my mobile devices, but intermittently. There are not many things I dislike about it.

Avantages

1Password is one piece of software I cannot live without.

Inconvénients

Occasionally it won't work for certain kinds of log-ins.

Avantages

I love how their it works on all my devices and I dont have to remember passwords anymore.

Inconvénients

I wish they had better browser extensions and sometimes the app crashes on Mac.

Avantages

If you're wondering if you should be using a password manager, the answer is YES. And 1Password is the best password management tool out there. It's focused on user experience and efficiency. I love how little details like creating a new login in the iOS app are thought through. It's great they offer apps for variety of devices and operating systems.

Inconvénients

It's a bit pricey. They started offering a subscription model and looks like there are no upgrade options for standalone licenses for existing users. Sync through iCloud is sometimes wonky, haven't tested other sync options.

Avantages

I liked the concept of 1Password. I purchased it soon after its release from the Apple App Store, which made acquiring it very easy.

Inconvénients

I was unable to make it work the way it was advertised. After a few attempts, I stopped trying to use it and went back to the old fashioned way of keeping track of passwords.

Avantages

I like that it quickly pulls up the relevant password for the website I’m about to enter and that it integrates with apps on my iPhone.

Inconvénients

Keeping logins organized is a bit troublesome if you update passwords often.
