It looks interesting — but I haven’t test it. Bitwarden is open source and the information is encrypted before it leaves your computer, so from a security standpoint it’s pretty solid. Offline solutions like Enpass might be even more secure, depending on they are implemented. Another example of an offline password manager:

Master Password – Master Password is based on an ingenious password generation algorithm that guarantees your passwords can never be lost. Its passwords aren’t stored: they are generated on-demand from your name, the site and your master password. No syncing, backups or internet access needed.

I was a 1password customer about 7 years ago, I haven’t tested it recently. But here’s what I know:

– Bitwarden is 100% open source, and it’s available GitHub for anyone to review/audit
– 1Password costs between $46 and $60 per year, whereas Bitward is free (or if you need to store encrypted files the premium service costs $10 per year)
– There’s no Linux version of 1Password (except by logging into the website)
– Bitwarden can be self-hosted if desired

Thanks for the feedback. Since Bitwarden is an open-source project. Typically, these projects monetize by offering support services or hosting. Bitwarden already offers a paid service (that I’m currently testing).

I’m currently using Lastpass, and pay for a ‘family’ membership, and agree – it has become bloated/slower over time. We’ve also experienced issues getting my wife set up so we can share common data.

I’m curious about BitWarden – it sounds almost too good to be true. A free account (free forever, according to their website), with sharing between 2 users. Do you have any understanding of how they can offer this for free? Perhaps hoping to up sell to the family membership level?
