With its time fields functionality, users can keep track of passwords’ creation, last modification, last access and expiration.

It is FREE and most importantly open-source. This ensures that there are no backdoors and there is no "cloud" or other provider who may have access to or even accidentally leak your sensible data. > > **Cons**: It is a bit more complex to set-up initially, but after a short learning period of 1-2 months the benefits outweigh this entry-hurdly by far. > > I have been using KeePass privately and at work for about 5 years now and I still keep finding new exciting features. I sync may passwords across multiple PCs and Android devices using Synology Drive for storing the database. ----- ### "Own your secrets database - self-managed key management solution" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *12 August 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: You own the password database which is password-protected and encrypted. > > **Cons**: It's not integrated with web browsers so not as convenient as some cloud tools with web browser plugins. > > I'm using KeePass for over 5 years now and it has been great experience. It can be easily customized with available plugins. The database is easily backed-up and accessible via different channels. ----- ### "A Secure, Easy-to-Manage Password Manager" — 5.0/5 > **Jayson** | *3 October 2019* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: KeePass allows our team to keep our passwords in one location. We can interact with it and have it update in the cloud in realtime which is fantastic. > > **Cons**: KeePass can take a little bit of time to set up, but once it's up and running, you're off to the races. > > KeePass is a simple but great program for password management and I'd recommend it to anyone. ----- ### "Fantastic Credential/Password Software" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *19 December 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: First of all the software is free which is fantastic for the developers, secondly the software is simple to use and secure. I can relax knowing my credentials for the hundreds of sites I use is stored somewhere safe and I can easily access the credentials/serial keys I need when I'm on my machine. There is also unofficial apps for other platforms which I have only just found out via their home website which is a bonus\! > > **Cons**: I can't think of anything I least like about the software, it was due to not having an app on iOS/Android but it appears there is. > > I love this software, I hope it continues to be more accessible on other platforms but otherwise it's a key piece of software I use on my personal Windows machines as well as within my workplace. ----- ### "The best offline password manager in the market" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *20 December 2022* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It stores your password offline (on your device, not in the cloud) , so you won't hear about your passwords being compromised from the latest hacking some website. It's a small lightweight piece of software that just works. The built-in hot keys for entering your passwords automatically works great for most websites and can be manually configured for stubborn websites where the login boxes are not otherwise detected. It can safety store your username, password, URL, PIN numbers, phone numbers, addresses, really any data you desire. > > **Cons**: You have to manually configure "Triggers" to backup the password database and synchronized it, if you want those to tasks automated. > > I have been utilizing KeePass for over a decade to store ALL THE INFORMATION related to every vendor at our business. It is by far the safest, easiest, and quickest way to store and manage usernames and passwords. I use it daily to access so much data beyond just usernames and passwords. Once you realize how easy it is to store and access different kinds of data with the program, you wont want to store the data anywhere else. ----- Page: 1 / 25\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/95081/keepass?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/95081/keepass) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
