Bitwarden

Left Bitwarden for Proton Pass, fed up with its UI/UX.

“I just despised their awful UI/UX and had had enough”

Happy with Bitwarden's family plan and sees no reason to change.

“Not changing because I see no valid reason yet. I am happy with the family plan”

Paid for Bitwarden premium until the price more than doubled, then moved to self-hosted Vaultwarden.

“I was paying for premium for Bitwarden until I found out a few days ago that the price was more than doubling”

Has had good experiences with Bitwarden and Proton Pass.

“I've had good experiences with both [Bitwarden](https://bitwarden.com) and [Proton Pass”

Finds Bitwarden open source, self-hostable and with a great UX.

“Bitwarden is open source, self-hostable, and has a great UX.”

Likes Bitwarden but tolerates its sub-par desktop experience while updates roll in.

“For many its the desktop experience is sub-par and a dealbreaker.. I like them though and tolerate it at the moment knowing they are pushing updates thick and fast to address user concerns”

A few days into Bitwarden and impressed, but it can't auto-lock the vault when the phone locks.

“I use Bitwarden since a few days and am quite impressed by what it offers. Yet I miss one thing which I thought is surprisingly standard: there is no option”

Has used Bitwarden's Send feature to share sensitive documents via expiring links.

“Bitwarden also has its excellent "Send" feature of ephemeral links for sharing sensitive documents, which I've used a few times already”

On Android, Bitwarden identifies the app's URL and can draw over other apps, making fills more flexible.

“bitwarden identifies the url of the app and then I can add that as a URL. Really helpful. I also know that bitwarden has a display over other apps and”

Bitwarden's free tier covers most people and paid is cheaper; 1Password's UI isn't worth the extra money.

“Nothing beats Bitwarden for the value of money it provides, both to free and paid users. Bitwarden has a free tier which would be sufficient for 95% people. 1Password doesn't”

1Password has better UX and site/app targeting for them, but they still choose Bitwarden.

“1Password has a better UX and makes a better job targeting sites and apps (in my experience). Still Bitwarden is my choice”

Prefers Bitwarden over 1Password apart from missing extra item types and some rough edges.

“There is literally nothing else about 1Password that I preferred over Bitwarden.”

Bitwarden's lack of real offline support is their biggest problem.

“The biggest problem for me with bitwarden is the no offline support. You can retain some read-only access if you had previously unlocked the db but that really isn't enough.”

About to drop Bitwarden because logins never worked on two Android phones; their clients on 1Password find it a breeze.

“im about to throw BW out since ive never been able to log on my phones. Tried with 2 diff android devices and its a mess, forcing me to only use the master password”

Bitwarden's login-with-device approval doesn't work in Firefox for them and has been broken a long time.

“Though Bitwarden still have issues with Firefox: the authentication with another device is not working, if I am not mistaken it also have issues in private mode in Firefox. And”

Bitwarden's macOS and Linux desktop apps don't support FIDO2/YubiKey 2FA.

“Bitwarden does not support FIDO2/WebAuth ("Yubikey") as 2FA on the macOS and Linux Desktop Apps”

Uses free Bitwarden for non-login items: functional and secure but clunky, and impressively generous for free.

“Bitwarden that I’m using for as many things possible not logins now isn’t great on features or UI. Still it’s functional if clunky, robust and secure if inelegant”

Bitwarden kept force-stopping on their iPhone, so they moved to 1Password, which has been more consistent.

“for me it started getting force stopped several times in my iphone for no reason. Even 1Pass has some minir flaws . Many times it failed autofilling data only on”

Bitwarden's browser extension felt like a memory leak to them, and they regret paying for it.

“I’m paying $5 a month so my browser extension doesn’t run like a memory leak that makes me feel like I need 128 GB of RAM”

Finds Bitwarden decent but with a very outdated GUI and missing features.

“Bitwarded to use your example is a decent password manager with a very outdated GUI and a lack of features and functionality that other password managers have”

Tried Vaultwarden and Bitwarden, but Bitwarden's usability across family devices was worse, so they returned to 1Password.

“Bitwarden was actually worse in usability across devices in the family, so I went back to 1Password for family”

Self-hosts Vaultwarden with Bitwarden apps and everything runs smoothly.

“I'm using bitwarden apps, everything been running smoothly and good”

Moved to Bitwarden because a family plan costs what a single 1Password plan does.

“I can get a family plan on Bitwarden for the cost of a single annuity plan with 1Password so it was a no brainer for me”

Chose Bitwarden as open source with a usable free plan, slightly better than 1Password in their tests, then paid for premium.

“the free version was usable and on my testing it was slightly better than 1password. After a while of using free version I decided to get the premium to support the developers”

Bitwarden's free tier does everything they need across browser and mobile.

“I’ve always used the free tier and had no reason or inkling ever to really look at what their paid features are because it literally just does what I need”

On paid Bitwarden this year and happy with it, though they only need premium for TOTP.

“Bitwarden is a great option. If something happens in the future, I can always switch then. For now - I'm sticking with Bitwarden and I'm happy with it”

Stays on Bitwarden over Proton Pass because it allows FIDO2 keys as the only MFA and already has Argon2.

“Bitwarden allows me to use Fido2 security keys as the *only* form of MFA, whereas Proton only allows hardware keys *in addition to* having TOTP active”

A paid Bitwarden user and advocate for years who finds it criminally cheap.

“I've been an avid paid (it's criminally cheap) user and evangeliser for Bitwarden for many years now”
