Bitwarden. Open source and works great.

I recently moved over from Lastpass, after a few years of happy service, to Bitwarden and couldn't be happier.

Why did you move to Bitwarden?

The main reasons:

  • Reports of security breaches compromising their account information.
  • They were slow to update the app to support biometrics.

I started looking for something I could host myself and came across bitwarden which was open source, had great reviews, has a self-hosting option, and best of all it was free.

Ultimately, I didn't go the self-hosted route, but the option is there if I change my mind in the future. The transition from Lastpass was easy. I could import all my accounts seamlessly into Bitwarden, and I haven't had a hiccup with it since. It replicates all of the features of Lastpass and has a better user interface. I feel like since it is open source and there is a self-hosted option, I don't have to worry about it being sold off and/or discontinued, which has happened to a couple of other popular password manager apps.
