The reason I won’t go for a subscription is because I don’t want to find myself locked out of my password manager if I stop paying the subscription.
With IntelliJ (JetBrains) I get perpetual fallback and that makes me super comfortable with a subscription model.
Will AgileBits offer perpetual fallback? I doubt it. Their product works well but their marketing team are a let down.

- ixtli 8y agoThank you for this comment. JetBrains subscription also drops in price over time to reward you for continued patronage. It's the only subscription model i've ever been comfortable with.
- roustem 8y agoYou do not lose access to your data when you stop paying for the subscription. It switches to read-only mode.
- sigzero 8y agoYou aren't locked out. It becomes read online and you can export it at that point.
