This means login credentials, personal profiles, credit card details and other confidential information can be saved in a “vault” (effectively a password-protected cloud storage folder) which is accessible from any device or operating system via a series of apps and browser extensions. It is probably best to start our 1Password review by explaining what 1Password is and how it works.ġPassword is a vault-based password manager. In a recent poll conducted by, 1Password achieved seventh place in a list of the world´s most-loved password managers – 1Password being used by only 7% of respondents. Unfortunately, in recent years, 1Password has replaced the licensing model with a subscription model, discontinued its free plan, and abandoned native app development in favor of Electron cross-platform app development – a move that has been detrimental to the user experience.Ĭonsequently, many long-time customers have abandoned 1Password in favor of alternative options.
The 1Password password manager was launched in 2006, and for the next ten years possibly was the “world’s most-loved password manager” due to a flexible software licensing model that gave customers the option of upgrading as new features and capabilities were released. Our 1Password review debunks the claim it is the “world´s most-loved password manager”, discusses why it falls short of its self-proclaimed status, and compares it to other products offering better value-for-money.
