Best free password manager

My saved android passwords

So, for this comparison, we have chosen those alternatives that are either totally free, or that have free versions lacking relevant functionality limitations.

It gives us full control of our data in exchange for offering a slightly steep learning curve. For data synchronization, we can resort to platforms such as Dropxbox/OneDrive or similar, or share files within our local network.

For the peace of mind of the privacy-loving user, KeePassXC is supported by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a U.S. organization that defends freedom of expression in the digital sphere.

For such synchronization, unlike other available alternatives, we will only have the option to host our data on Zoho’s servers… but we are also given the option to export them for offline access or for export to another service.

Google password manager

Its main attraction is the ease with which it integrates with applications and the web browser. That is, every time you want to put a password that you have saved, you can include it instantly without having to copy and paste.

Compared to 1Password the main difference is the price, here it is only 2 dollars a month and the functionalities are practically the same. However, there is a free version that can meet the needs of the most demanding users.

Dashlane comes with strength and some very good ideas, but also with some compromises if we want to benefit from everything it offers. The most basic service is free and has all the essentials we have seen above.

It is easy to use, intuitive and has one of the nicest interfaces. If synchronization between devices is not a priority, we can have everything from the mobile without having to pay. However, if we want to connect a computer or make backups, we have to pay 3 euros per month, which is also billed annually.

Mejor gestor de contraseñas

Otras opciones gratuitas de gestión de contraseñas ¿Debería molestarse con la versión premium? Bitwarden cobra sólo 10 dólares al año por ella, un precio que te proporciona 1 GB de almacenamiento cifrado en la nube e informes sobre el estado de las contraseñas. También hay una opción familiar (40 dólares al año) que te ofrece funciones premium para hasta seis usuarios y añade la posibilidad de compartir de forma ilimitada.Yo diría que la mayoría de estas funciones son superfluas para la mayoría de los usuarios, aunque obviamente depende de ti la decisión. Para que conste, LogMeOnce Password-Less es otra herramienta que admite la sincronización de contraseñas en su versión gratuita. No me gusta tanto, pero vale la pena echarle un vistazo. Si te lo preguntas, ahora estoy usando Bitwarden a tiempo completo. Antes era usuario de Dashlane, pero me frustró su hinchazón y su elevado precio. Bitwarden ha demostrado ser un producto sólido, que no tengo reparos en recomendar. ¿Cuál es tu método de gestión de contraseñas preferido hoy en día? Y si te niegas a usar una de estas herramientas, me gustaría saber por qué.

Lastpass

If you are a free LastPass user, these changes will not affect you until March 16. However, the countdown has begun, and if you are in this situation you will have to make a decision. You can either stay as a free user, switch to the paid version, or take advantage of the change in service.

In terms of compatibility, we have support for Android (with smartwatch support), iOS, Windows, Linux, Mac and some of the most popular browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, Opera and Vivaldi).

As a third alternative, we wanted to highlight KeePass for those who prefer to bet on a free project. This is a veteran application that has all kinds of forks for PC, browser, Android and iOS.

In terms of interface it leaves something to be desired (both the official application and the clients based on its source code) but it provides reliability by using the best encryption standards and the full guarantee of being a project that will never become paid. It is less convenient than commercial solutions, but it delivers on the crucial aspects.
