Surprised you didn't include something like Lastpass. I used it for quite a while. Moved onto my1login now which is a new one.

I've been using the free application, Lastpass, for years. Surprised you didn't include it here.

I have never used those apps, I have used built in Symantec password manager before, but after I switched to free MS Security Essentially I needed some other password manager with similar functionality and LastPass has been great. I like all the major browsers extensions which automatically fill out your login and password. I can use it on Windows as well as on Ubuntu. I love the possibility of securing your master password with Google Authenticator, it's great app, I'm surprised you haven't included it.

not at all!

I am soooo in agreement with you!!...I listened to an hour long post by a guy who has been in the IT industry for something like 35 years, and he was tasked with investigating every aspect of LastPass, his report on it's security measures was glowing beyond belief! (He was an independent reporter, no ties to the company whatsoever, I wish I could find the link to this webinar, but it was so long ago) The information stored in Lastpass is encrypted both ways, even the people at LastPass do not have access to your master password (That is why it is unrecoverable if you forget it.), and with multi-factor authentication enabled it is even more secure. I had confidence in LastPass when I did my own research and after listening to this guy I have even greater confidence. I absolutely could not do without LastPass since I started using it about 5 years ago....My passwords are typically 40-100 characters long (Usually only limited by the website's password requirements), using a mixture of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols, for over 500 sites and services....and I never use the same passwords for any of them, and while I realize this may be overkill, it makes me feel safer! I often test the PW strength by typing it into "How secure is my password" (http://howsecureismypassword.net/) site to see how many years it would require a computer to crack it!....I use multiple browsers and OSes, and most accept the LassPass plugins, I store all of my software licenses, card, medical, database, router, networking info....you name it!...LastPass has become my go-to app for just about everything....even replacing my own memory!..If I had to keep only one program, it would likely be LastPass!....Kevin.

I see by other commenters, that I'm not the only one who noticed you did not include LastPass.....(Maybe my all time favorite app!)....Why not? Also, Roboform was not mentioned. Are they not in the top 5?....I admit I don't have actual experience with using all of them, but I did do research on most before deciding which to use, and I found that many of them, unlike LastPass, don't offer in their frees versions unlimited storage, as well as a great many useful features that would you would need to pay for in some of other programs....In fact I feel guilty about not getting the paid version of LastPass, since I rely on it so heavily! (I have well over 600 passwords and secure notes, as well as many other things stored.) I keep telling myself I will upgrade eventually...I love this app, I cannot say enough good things about it!.... As for it's security measures, I have great confidence, after doing much research and reading many independent evaluations by some very qualified people....Kevin.
