That is a good choice, and it is what I recommend to whoever will listen to me, and a few that won't.
I use and recommend 1Password. To evaluate a password manager, check this page https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/15416/1password-and-the-crypto-wars https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/15416/1password... for good questions to ask. For example, what data they can turn over, what their encryption practices are. Key phrase: "There is no data of yours that we keep, so there is nothing to turnover".
This can't be said by all password managers.
- bad_user 10y agoThat's an old and outdated page. 1Password has moved to a subscription model, thus storing the encrypted database themselves. The old "offline" option is still around, but it has been deemphasized, for one because they stopped implementing features supporting it (like an offline HTML interface for opvault, or sync with other clouds besides Dropbox). Even more upsetting is that the standalone version is now much more expensive than it was. They did that to increase the attractiveness of their subscriptions of course. And the writing is on the wall really.
- wglb 10y agoWell not quite. While they have added a subscription model, there is still the desktop-only version that works in accordance with that page. I didn't notice an increase in their price--I have one at home and one from work.
