And despite complaints about its not-so-user-friendly interface, the main message to big password manager companies is that it was not local encryption or cloudless syncing that made KeePass the number one Reddit approved password manager, but its open-source nature – in other words, the ability to immediately patch vulnerabilities. The Winner Is Open-SourceĪdmitting that in certain aspects alternative password managers can be better than their traditional counterparts, it was still startling to see the dominance of KeePass, especially when the thread involved LastPass by comparing the official product to its open-source ‘nemesis’. Defenders of LastPass, on the other hand, go as far as to declare it the best password manager, emphasizing its user-friendliness, convenience, cheap pricing policy and how fast the company reacts to data breaches. Many – especially avid KeePass supporters – have set a full-on vendetta against this company, stating that LastPass is the prime example of how not to securely store our passwords due to its web-only nature and the huge amount of bugs discovered in its browser add-ons. But opinions differ significantly on LastPass, the company that has had the biggest amount of media coverage in the past few years.

Sadly that’s something even we have to confirm: since extensions have to comply with the coding of the browser they are integrating into, it is highly likely that the plugin’s own coding will be vulnerable. There are Redditors who try to explain that most password manager companies use end-to-end encryption making them perfectly ‘hacker-resistant’, yet the majority of the Reddit answers tell readers to choose a password manager that stores passwords and other credentials on the device and/or syncs offline.Īnother huge concern of Redditors is how open password manager browser add-ons are to hacking. In fact, the biggest concern about partially or entirely web-based password managers comes down to whether their encryption methods are effective enough at keeping hackers at bay.

It’s quite surprising to see how much Redditors reject the idea of storing their credentials in the cloud of big companies – despite constantly hearing about the advantages of cloud computing. The reasons for this are varied, but there are two arguments in particular that appear in almost every thread we found: Unsafe Cloud Storage Get a 50% Discount Big Password Managers: Torn Between Supporters and HatersĪlthough there is a general consensus between users that password managers are mandatory if you have multiple passwords across various websites, it’s shocking to discover that many Redditors are pretty hostile towards password management tools developed by bigger companies.
