Centralized password sharing has improved secure access and streamlined global team workflows
The important limitation that I find in 1Password Business is that recipients, when you share the data with them, can always manually store that data locally. No system can fully prevent that. We just need to trust the person whom you're sharing the data with. It's not ideal for strangers or unknown parties where we can give them the credit card, which is not ideal. The limitations of 1Password Business where it allows the users to store their data locally are the only limitation, but it doesn't affect the fact that we are using the platform itself because it's really helpful for the team.

Efficiently keeps track and monitors
When I look at something like a server or a user who has an unsuccessful login, all they're giving me is what is from the domain controllers. When I click on the analytics portion that says give me information, it doesn't tell me what application is errored out. It doesn't tell me; it just tells me what is the same information from the domain controller. I'd like a little bit more robust information on actually giving me some useful information instead of some links that send me out to the Internet that says research here, and then I have to do additional research. It's kind of generic. And, basically, it's just a quick, I don't have to search through the domain controller logs, but once I pull those out, the logs are still very generic like you get from Microsoft. Area code four three one one. Okay. I had to go look that up. It doesn't take it any further than just a copy based on the domain controller.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

These were the basic requirements of my company that we could achieve through this product."

"I would improve the search engine of 1Password to make it clearer or less confusing."
"1Password should check and alert me if my information, such as my password or email address, has been sold on the internet."

"Asset management/discover and reporting."
"There is a lack of specific information provided by the analytics portion of the software."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Users have to pay around five euros per year for the solution."
"The tool's pricing is not too cheap or expensive."
"You purchase the license for one time, and you can use it for a lifetime. The only thing is that in order to get support, you need to upgrade your product to the latest solution. You need to keep a support contract with them for which you have to pay some amount. It's a very small amount for renewing their support contract. Overall, it's very cost-effective."
"Using this solution costs us about $1,200 USD per year."
