Yeah 1Password is pretty awful when you consider the amount of features you get with LastPass like multi-factor authentication. 1Password relies on Dropbox. Your passwords are all stored on your computer. Granted they're in an encrypted format, but if you have a jerk for a room mate they could copy your encrypted files, key log your vault password, and have access to all your passwords.
