The question is: How can I protect my credentials in a comfortable way?
These are my requirements:
I am also available to pay for a good product.
Pros:
Password Safe - Designed by a renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier
- Simple and light app. You can save just your credentials, URLs and a note, nothing else
- Drag and drop username and password to fill in forms. No autotype means more control and less risks on scam sites
- Master password is saved in an encrypted form in memory. It cannot be dumped
Masterpassword - Stateless password manager. No files to sync. Every time passwords are recalculated using your master password, username and URL
KeepassXC - Famous and adopted even from european governments
- You can use key file to unlock the db
- Fast application
Bitwarden - Clean interface
- All is synced in Bitwarden’s cloud. You can also setup your own server version
- Automatic check if you password has been pawned
Cons:
Password Safe - A little bit outdated app
- Few options to import password from other password manager but KeePass
Masterpassword - If your master password is compromized and you have to change it, you must change all your password in all your sites because they are recalculated with the new master password
- No 2FA
- You have to remember exactly the URL you used and the version of the password if you changed everytime
KeepassXC - Many conflicts if you have to sync in a multi device architecture
- Browser extention sometimes fails to autocomplete the form
- Browser extention sometimes fails to update/create your credentials
Bitwarden - Browser extention and app are really slow
- Not easy to delete items
- If you are behind a proxy you may be not able to update youe repository
