I have been using this FOSS for a little over 5 years now. Absolutely hands down best password manager experience I’ve ever had. I cannot think of one downside to this software. Easily used across all of my devices seamlessly.
Bitwarden is an incredible piece of software. I would recommend anyone looking at self-hosting an instance to look at VaultWarden. It’s an alternative implementation to the official Bitwarden server that enables almost all premium functionality.
My only complaint with Bitwarden at all is around offline vault editing (which is such a niche use case). Right now, if you lose connection to the server (either your self hosted, or the official Bitwarden Hosted instance) you are only able to view your vault in read only mode. They have an item in the road map to allow offline editing, but it looks to be a long way out.
I love vaultwarden. Been using the beta builds to have auto sync work on mobile now. High quality service!
I used 1password for over two years and switched to bitwarden 1 year ago
Easy transition, however bitwarden is not as feature rich. There are a couple things I miss like vaults and items like database credentials or ftp and so on. The mobile android extension is not as good at picking up login forms
I will still use it rather than 1password for it being free and open-source
Bitwarden definitely has vaults. I believe you just have to pay for the full version to get it.
Or host vaultwarden
Agree totally. A great project that just works. Love it
My employer users Lastpass, a commercial solution. That hasn’t been a good experience, with downtime, forced re-passwording and worst, having our details stolen from them.
Didn’t they have like 3 security breaches in the last couple of years? They have sucked since they were bought by logmein.
Something like that. Although some of the issues pre-date logmein on a technical level (they allowed users to set a ridiculously short master password, even for a company that contained all the users’ passwords)
Price keeps going up too. Pretty sure we won’t be staying with them for long, although it’s not my decision.
That’s awful they were my first PW manager like a decade ago. I don’t even think it cost $10 for a year at the time. The company I work for is a MSP, we resell bitwarden to businesses; kinda proud of that one.

Bitwarden’s great, and I use it myself. But for a company with groups, “secure” sharing and so on, it just doesn’t compete on the features. But even so, LP’s card is marked for us.
They have a nice CLI which has been really awesome to pair with my dotfiles manager. Definitely one of my favorite and most useful used-daily software.
Agree. I use bitwarden send often as well
I swapped to Bitwarden from Lastpass years ago and haven’t looked back since. Glad I got away before their shit got compromised 😅
I started using BitWarden since I moved away from the apple eco system and moved to Android as I’m only a mobile user phone/tablet.
It’s never failed me and even after an accidental factory reset I was able to recover everything.
