A secure solution that needs to improve JumpCloud integration
The tool's most valuable feature is security.  We faced issues while integrating 1Password into JumpCloud.  I have been using the product for more than two years.  1Password is stable.  My company has 200 users for the product.  The tool's deployment is easy.  The tool's pricing is not too…

Straightforward to set up, good support, intuitive to use, and offers good value for the cost
The most valuable feature is being able to use a single master password to access all of your other passwords. One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes. In our scenario, these are notes such as how to get some of our devices on the network. They are processes and procedures that we don't want anybody else to see, especially within the IT department. It's a small department and we have very many processes that we use, but not on a daily basis, so we aren't going to remember them. By using LastPass and secure notes, we can go back to those notes in a secure fashion and remind ourselves how to do certain things. For instance, how to create a test database for accounting, which is something that we do once a year. We don't want that to be out in a non-secure fashion, where somebody in the public can see it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of 1Password is the one that automatically generates a password and MFA for me when I try to enter them, instead of going and hardcoding it."
"The solution's most valuable features are its password management security and cloud firewall."
"1Password helps to generate unique passwords that you do not need to remember."
"1Password is very secure for storing all my passwords, keys, and secrets for work."
"The tool's most valuable feature is security."
"The initial setup for this process is straightforward and extremely easy. It just works."
"The most valuable feature for me is being able to pair applications and user permissions."
"It's improved security; we don't have to worry about people storing password loosely and secure them."
"It's always hard to put a value on return on investment. You avoid one breach and it's paid for a million times over. We got a penetration test company internally, just to see how secure our network is, and there happened to be one bit of software that had been overlooked by an external company that managed it. It hadn't been upgraded so that managed to get them into the network. They would've been able to access through the test thing a file that we had previously. If that was a real-life scenario they would have been able to get into our network and get full access to our organization's passwords. If they did get in, they would have gotten access to the cloud. The ROI we see is that we are completely secured compared to what we had previously where there was a vulnerability."
"Increased security around password management for teams and collaborative efforts with external vendors."
"This product helps keep us secure."
"Off-boarding of people is easy without changing shared account passwords."
"Tech support has been good. We haven't needed it much, because it is not a complex application. There is not that much you have to do with it."
 

Cons

"Sometimes it fails to appear automatically, and you have to call it manually."
"The service could be improved incrementally to enhance programmatic access to the vault."
"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."
"We faced issues while integrating 1Password into JumpCloud."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"It is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"The management through the plugin is poor. It consumes tons of client resources especially as an administrator."
"One thing I wish LastPass had is an integration with Active Directory, not for synchronizing users but to actually manage, in some way, privileged accounts by replacing the password of LastPass itself."
"Its user interface should be better, and there should probably be more information about scalability."
"Right now we have two products; there is the password manager and there is the authenticator app. Ideally, these should be fully integrated and support better handling of two-factor authentication or any other authenticator data."
"I would like to be able to reduce the log out time of the session."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
 

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 do not have to purchase licenses for your entire organization. You can scale as adoption grows."
"I have been involved with many password managers. Passportal, Secret Server, CyberArk, and BeyondTrust. I chose LastPass for our organization because of the pricing. The organization didn't want to implement something really expensive. LastPass, for what it's offering, for the price that it's offering the service, is unbeatable."
"If you import from sources like XML, keepass, CSV files be sure to clean the import files, this reduces the adjustments in the slow tool itself."
"The subscription model is rated at a fair price."
"In terms of pricing, my feeling is that they are all roughly the same. LastPass is in line with its competitors, plus or minute a dollar or two per month."
"The pricing and licensing are okay. Basically, at the last contract negotiation, they attempted to jack the rate up and we just said, "No." We still did negotiations with them, but they bumped everything up quite a bit."
"It would be nice to do a quarterly true-up process with them versus having to buy 50 licenses at a time when we realize we're out, then we have to buy more. So far, they have been nice about letting us exceed our allotment and just letting us true-up on our own, but a more robust quarterly true-up process would be good."
"The previous pricing was of good value. I don't really know, as of now, whether the new pricing is. The Enterprise license is $48 per license per year now. That is a steep increase of $24, which is what it was when we first signed up."
