This is pretty awesome. Super excited to try it out. What's not awesome though is how long they've been working on the refresh of the Android app with fingerprint support. Demoed in May, it's now November and they aren't even ready to launch it on their beta channel.

Hi Mike,

Really sorry about that. Our Android team is working as hard as they can to bring out updates. It's a tough balance because we've been hard at work on trying to bring 1Password for Teams to Android as well, which until today has been a secret project. This also means adding a lot of new features that are part of Teams, like multiple vault support.

For the fingerprint support it's important to note that this relies on Android Marshmallow so we couldn't ship that until then. It sounds like that has started rolling out though so that's no longer blocking us but a few other things are. I just thought that knowing it depended upon Android Marshmallow would help in seeing why that particular feature hasn't arrived yet :)

We're doing our best to get the Android application improved though.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

1Password for Teams does have auditing for changes. We will be adjusting and expanding how that is exposed in the admin console over time.

Auditing who accesses credentials is just as important as auditing changes for us.

Hi helper!

I've put this in a document I hope to send to the team this evening and I have added your comments on what is important to you. If you have any others please let me know.

This is just the initial beta and we fully intend to bring even more great features to 1Password for Teams. Requests can certainly help drive that direction a little bit so let me know what's important and we'll see what comes up on top.

Our teams would be all over this if they had real linux support.

The 1Password For Teams web app runs in Chrome, Firefox, and Opera.

Read only and no browser integration. :/ at least they publish a python module to speak to the agilekeychain

Interesting - lack of active directory integration, and lack of on-prem solution is disappointing though.

Edit: since someone is apparently upset over my comment - those two features are absolutely mandatory in almost all corporate environments. If you have a comment to the contrary, feel free to share it. Don't just downvote my comment because you don't personally need the features.

I had hoped AgileBits would step up their Windows offerings.

I've recently bought the "real Windows application", since the Universal App doesn't allow to enter new logins (really?), only view existing ones.

Unfortunately, KeePass was much more useful with its Alt-A shortcut. In 1Password I need to manually copy login data from the application, since I'm using Edge and there's obviously no plugin, yet (Edge's fault).

Oh, and syncing must be a bad joke. Lots and lots of sync options, but the only one working across all platforms (iOS, Windows Phone and Windows are the ones relevant to me) is Dropbox. No OneDrive, no WLAN sync.

And don't get me started on vault management. I was using a non-synced vault without realizing it for weeks, and then I was pulling my hair out trying to sync the correct one. I finally only managed to do that by completely removing the Windows Phone app and starting from scratch.

At least they are moving everything to opvault. It was fun trying to get everything to sync, only to find out that the default vault format "agilekeychain" cannot be synced to Windows phone (or was it Windows desktop? I'm not sure).

Hi there!

We are working on adding Teams to 1Password for Windows. Hopefully we'll have more to show for that in the not too distant future.

I also hear you on the Edge front, we're excited to see what we'll be able to do with Edge once a plugin framework is available.

As for syncing, the Windows application does support Wifi sync to iOS and Android applications, in addition to Dropbox. Between computers, you could use any sync service that syncs like Dropbox, i.e. to a folder locally and then the sync service copies the data back and forth while the data rests locally. Keep in mind though that we've only tested and can support Dropbox for this so you might run into unforeseen problems, but we do have users doing this and it seems to work for them.

That said, I am sorry for the trouble you've had. If you have any questions getting things setup you're welcome to ask questions on our support forum at https://discussions.agilebits.com. We're always happy to help users get setup and running.

I'll certainly pass your feedback along to the proper people as well.
