Has anyone migrated easily between password managers? Manually entering my (hundreds?) of unique logins/passcodes would be quite a chore.

When I went from lastpass to bitwarden I could simply export all my passwords to a json file and import them to bitwarden. I think it took like five minutes or something like that.

Bitwarden is a really nice password manager. It can import from 1Password: https://bitwarden.com/help/article/import-from-1password/ https://bitwarden.com/help/article/import-from-1password/

Bitwarden has an import option that will pull from a lot of other password managers. However, it definitely isn't perfect.

    I imported from 1password. I found the following problems. - Some items did not import correctly at all because the 1password export format did not quote values (CSV). This means that if I have a password with a comma in it, I get two broken entries. This is more of a 1password issue though. - 2FA tokens did not import and would have to be manually reset. I guess this is to be expected though. - Some fields had different names than bitwarden was expecting, so values were imported into the wrong destination and had to be manually corrected. This was a while back so I'm not sure if anything has been improved.

I recently migrated from 1Password using Dropbox for sync, to KeePassXC (Windows, Linux & Mac) and Strongbox (iPhone & iPad) still using Dropbox. Migration was a simple matter of exporting a CSV and then just correctly selecting the column order for KeePass import. For those who don't want to trust a third party, even with their encrypted data, I believe that home NAS sync-when-available is possible - I personally haven't tested the implications of syncing changes from multiple devices at the same time in that scenario.

1Password seems to have an Export function which can agree with the KeepassXC's Import one, for example. https://ryannickel.com/html/migrating_from_1password_to_keepassxc.html https://ryannickel.com/html/migrating_from_1password_to_keep...

I exported successfully from 1Password 6 onto Secrets and KeePassXC. Only thing missing were software licenses (some attachments may not carry over correctly or show up as notes).
