I would just like to add my voice to the cacophony of others shouting into this particular echo chamber: Peace out Lastpass

Re: LogMeIn acquires Lastpass
#393If you're looking to change your password manager, I've been using `pass` [0] for years now, and it's one of he best open source project I have ever used. Everything works, it uses git for remote storage and gpg for encryption. There is no fancy browser plugin, but a command line to get the password is enough, since browsers cache the password afterwards and most sites use long lived sessions through cookies. And the…
I also love pass. My problem now though is what to recommend to family and friends. I've been evangelizing lastpass to them for a while, but I'm not comfortable telling anyone to trust them anymore.
Precisely my problem as well, if only pass had a user-friendly interface under windows..

If it's for an organization you should probably use KeePass, as all the data is kept locally by the organization. Allowing any third party access to sensitive passwords sounds like a bad idea.
My name is Eva Schweber and I work for AgileBits, the company that makes 1Password. I would just like to clarify that AgileBits never gets access to your data or your Master Password. It is either stored locally on the user's machine or network or in his/her own Dropbox or iCloud account.
My name is nfx, and I never trust in a closed source software.

#396Huh. Gotta admit, I'm rather distressed by this, but I'm trying to think through it logically. * They still don't have access to my raw passwords. Everything's already encrypted before it gets to them, and they don't have the key. They just store the encrypted data. * They however do control access to the account. This means there's a point where they get all sorts of data on me, and while I personally don't mind, I…
What about KeePass? There's even a web front end.
Though really in an organisation you'd probably pay for one of those other solutions (Secret Server?)

This isn't quite a reason to jump ship for me yet, but I'll certainly be duplicating work to other services(which so far, I've found to be quite inferior). Did you try 1Password (which works with Dropbox, Wifi sync, etc.)? Not affiliated with them, just a happy customer.
Can you tell me about any experiences with 1Password and IE ?
I've been a huge fan of the technical capabilities of Lastpass in general - I have many desktops and syncing generated passwords works great.
But it's never been something I could push to my business customers because it's never worked reliably under IE[0][1][2]. When I've bought this up in other forums, I only get the "oh.. using IE is dumb" sort of response, which is completely unhelpful for your average business. But it's an attitude I've often wondered if Lastpass had, based on their regular release cycles being heavily skewed away from IE[3].
0,1 and 2 are easily replicated in my environments:

I actually did an evaluation of password storage services recently and chose LastPass over 1Password for a couple reasons: 1. 1Password is SUPER expensive for what it is. You really pay for the fact that it looks nice and integrates well with mac. 2. It has no enterprise level features (This is for my organization) such as user management, access logging and fine grained roles and sharing. 1Password might be good for…
Actually, I'd say 1Password is cheap for what it is; I opted to use it in my personal life because it was cheaper than LastPass. :) The lack of enterprise features is a killer though. We currently use 1Password at work, but we're evaluating LastPass and Meldium as options to switch to purely for the password sharing, access control,etc. We don't want to switch, but it's not clear there's any option if you want to man…
IN a business environment for sharing accounts, I very highly recommend PasswordState.
Its auditing and logging features are excellent.

I wouldn't call it expensive really. It's not a recurring cost, so the price over time is really cheap.

Hi danieldk, My name is Eva Schweber and I work for AgileBits, the makers of 1Password. I just wanted to thank you for sharing your love of 1Password with the other folks on this thread!
Hi, I just bought 1password, switching from LastPass - one feature I really liked in LastPass was the ability to save the master password (I keep important passwords in my head and a password manager for less important things). Is there any chance this functionality will be provided? As it stands if I want to keep using 1Password I'll downgrade my Master Password strength (because it's a real pain to type it every ti…
You realize that having that option enabled is basically equivalent to having a plain text file on disk which has your passwords, right? If you encrypt your filesystem, this isn't so bad, but still any kind of remote execution exploit could basically gain access to all your passwords.
