I semi-annually try most of the popular password managers (Dashlane, 1Password, Lastpass, Enpass, Bitwarden) and I always end up staying with 1Password. Both their desktop and mobile apps are very well thought out and there's all sort of small UX and UI finesses that make them a cut above the competition.
Having said that, you'll have to deal with a high subscription cost and proprietary (but audited) code. They are also unwilling to make a full blown Linux app.
- mayneack 7y agoHow do you use it on linux? Just a browser extension? I've been on lastpass because the last time I tried, 1password didn't seem that convenient on linux.
- selectodude 7y agoIf you have the hosted version of 1Password, you can use the 1PX extension which is completely standalone.
- jchw 7y agoThis is how I used it. Though to be honest, one of the reasons I left 1P was because it genuinely felt like they only ever support Linux on accident. I guess now there’s a command line tool, but still, I feel much better with Bitwarden or Enpass as someone who runs only Linux both at home and at work. When I left, there were still lots of things that the extension did not do, that the desktop app did.
- techntoke 7y agoEnpass works pretty well on Linux, but you may run into some issues depending on your distro that has to be worked around.
- wwright 7y agoFor terminal stuff, 1Password offer a CLI client that you can build around.
- rrdharan 7y agoYou don't have to get the subscription - you can purchase a standalone license.
