With so many online services, it is hard to keep track of all your credentials. However, storing them in text files somewhere on your machine is akin to allowing anyone to access them and use them to their advantage. To never lose passwords and still use your PC in an efficient manner, make sure to use a reliable password managing software that will store your credentials safely.
There are several really good programs that will allow you to create countless pairs of usernames and passwords, enter them in forms on websites and store them in a safe space protected by encryption and additional layers of security. We chose 7 best programs for password management!
1. Dashlane
Heavily promoted by various YouTube content creators, this service costs $3.33 per month which is quite a lot for a service that only stores your passwords. Their solution is also a closed source meaning that people don’t really know how their inner systems operate. The good thing is that you can use the service for free although you will be limited to only 50 pairs of usernames and passwords.
2. Sticky Password
Costs less ($29.99 for a lifetime license) than Dashlane yet also offers a free version and also collaborates with various charities to support good causes. Whether you should trust that the company will exist in the distant future to fulfill their lifetime license obligations is another question altogether.
3. NordPass
With its low pricing and a wide variety of features, this is one of the best products on our list. While you cannot try the program for free, we can assure you that it works just fine and offers high-end encryption to ensure that your passwords are well-protected from unauthorized access. If you pay for the first month of use, you can ask for a money-back within 30 days.
4. 1Password
As the name of the service suggests, the service will protect all your password so that you will need to remember only one — to their service. Priced quite democratically, the service was also chosen by Apple to help its employees to protect their passwords safely. All in all, it is a good platform that offers a technologically advanced password management solution.
5. RoboFarm
This service is a good middle ground between the price and the quality. You will receive all the necessary functionality for just $2. The system may look a little bit outdated, but it does its job perfectly. You won’t be able to customize it to the same degree as other solutions. However, it is cheap and reliable. What else do you need from a password manager?
6. Keepass
A smart wordplay is not the only creative thing that came out of the minds behind this service. It has a free option that allows you to check whether you want to pay for the service. The program is fully portable. You don’t have to install it and can carry it on your flash drive. It may take some time to learn all of the features that the service provides. Nevertheless, it is a highly customizable and very effective program that will save you a lot of time when you master it.
7. LastPass
For just $4 per month, you will be able to receive the full range of utility features that make password management truly easy and safe. You can also try the free version that has many of the features cut. The company has been around for over 8 years and does not show any signs of going away anytime soon. One of the best platforms, for sure.
