Bitwarden Reviews

It makes logging in to services much more easier. I used to reuse password, now I have strong passwords everywhere. Not to mention that I don't have to worry about losing a password because my devices broke.

The app does look a bit dated when compared to modern applications. It could use a good brush up. Also, I would prefer to have a generate username and password option overlay on the signup form itself. Switching between the app ruins the experience. Also sometimes, when filling in forms, especially in signup forms, the forms are filled with the wrong values (email address got filled in password field and password in confirm password field).

Bitwarden helped me stop reusing passwords. It was rather easy to import all my old passwords. From there I knew what services I signed up for and what passwords I had to change. Did I mention that it also allowed me to save the recovery keys for MFA?

Perfect pricing for the password manager, including a fully free plan with synchronization across all of your devices.

Robust settings, where you can set your password to be shown only on specific pages (like I show database passwords only on the page which I use to login to databases, not on all domain pages).

Password protection of bank cards is very annoying as you can't copy all the fields without entering the password multiple times (as the browser extension closes its window and asks you to re-enter the password when you reopen it).

It allows you to keep all your passwords whenever you are. So you can easily switch between devices and continue your work.

I have been using Bitwarden for more than three years now, and I use it every day. In fact before I've written this review I authenticated to G2 with credentials stored in it. It is fairly easy to set up and to use, so much so, that I taught my grandmother how to use it, to help her combat issues online security that most elderly people have.

It covers all grounds for a perfect password manager, and the ability to self-host and manage your own instance is satisfying my paranoid-for-privacy needs.

From what I have seen it can be easily integrated with Company SSO's, so setting it up in Corporate environments should be a breeze.

I love the fact that it's Open Source, as it provides transparency into the project. I had reviewed it's source code couple of times

Although I paid for the "Premium" plan for Bitwarden, because I wanted to support it's creators, I really don't like the way that they paywalled some security features for their customers (such as TOTP, that you cannot self-host). Subscriptions they offer are more than affordable, sure, but i just cannot push the idea of putting a price tag on a feature so common through my head, while there are many alternatives that are free (although proprietary).

Storage, synchronization and management of various credentials.

There are a few key things I like about Bitwarden as a password manager:

It's completely free for individual use. You get full access to core password management features without paying anything. That makes Bitwarden very accessible.

It uses end-to-end encryption to keep all data safe, even from the service itself. This prioritizes security and privacy for users. The open-source codebase also allows transparency in its encryption implementations.

Potential risks associated with self-hosting servers. Bitwarden allows self-hosted server deployments, but incorrectly managing encryption keys, access control, and server security could compromise vault data.

Bitwarden solves two major problems for me when it comes to passwords:

Remembering my passwords securely

Like most people, I have dozens of online accounts with unique passwords. Trying to remember and keep track of passwords for each one is impossible. Bitwarden securely stores all my logins in an encrypted vault, allowing me to generate and retrieve hard-to-crack passwords without effort. This gives me peace of mind my credentials are protected.

Accessing my passwords easily across devices

As someone working across multiple devices (phone, laptop, desktop, etc.), I need my password vault available anytime, anywhere. Bitwarden's cloud sync and range of apps/browser extensions makes accessing my vault hassle-free on iOS, Android, desktop platforms, and browsers. I can auto-fill logins instantly.

By tackling these password headaches, Bitwarden provides me tremendous convenience and security. I no longer reuse poor passwords or struggle to remember them. My vault also migrates seamlessly when I change devices. Simply put, Bitwarden reduces my password friction allowing me to focus energy on more important things. And the fact that top-notch security comes free makes the value proposition undeniable from my perspective as an individual user.

The local & cloud solution and being multi-platform with the ability to access from anywhere.

The independent nature of the application sometimes fails to integrate into all browsers effectively.

Effective ability to maintain operational security.

Free offer fully capable. Easy to use for almost every user

OTP should be free. Sometimes the browser integration is not as smooth as it should

Not having the same password for all my accounts

Thanks to Bitwarden, I can store all my password and more easily with just a few clicks. I was previously an user of LastPass, but once I found Bitwarden, I loved it.

It's easy to use and the password generation tool is great, I always use it and also remembers me if I want to save the password of a website I haven't saved, so that's a cool thing. I've been using it for a few years and I would recommend it to anyone, including business.

I can't share certain passwords with specific users, I need to share the whole vault and that the phone application sometimes fails to detect the login form for certain apps or websites.

It helps me to create unique safe passwords and also storing them in a secure vault. Bitwarden has give me peace of mind as I don't have to keep remembering all the passwords for all the websites that I use

Randomized login credentials

Built in OTP

Cross platform

Lacks native auto-fill on desktop applications and some websites.

Keeping track of unique login credentials across a huge number of websites and services.

Bitwarden has a lot of features that make it really convenient to use a password manager. The desktop experience with the browser extension is great, as I can easily autofill logins and generate passwords when I create new accounts. It was really easy to switch over to Bitwarden thanks to the automatic prompts to add my credentials every time I logged in to a new site. I also really love the mobile app - it's really great that I can essentially have the same experience on mobile with autofilling that I do on desktop. I use Bitwarden super often - I rely on it completely for logging in and signing up.

I do wish it was possible to autofill card details on mobile, as that is something I really appreciate on desktop but isn't on mobile. It would also be cool if I could integrate Bitwarden with 2FA in order to make two-factor sign in easier.

As someone with a background in cybersecurity, I am very aware of how important it is to make secure passwords online. One of the biggest pitfalls that I was falling into before I started using Bitwarden was reusing passwords. With all the breaches that have occurred lately, if your password gets breached it would be trivial for an attacker to gain access to all the other accounts you have. One of the most important things that Bitwarden allows me to do is to make unique, secure passwords for every site that I am on. This gives me peace of mind and allows me to remove the mental burden of remembering all the passwords for all the sites that I am registered for.

It's super easy to use and saves soo much time compared to remembering passwords or having to constantly reset them. I also really like that I'm able to securely store my credit card information to easily access this data cross-device.

Honestly, I haven't found anything yet that I don't like about the platform.

It helps me save both my personal and professional passwords, as well as access passwords for shared work accounts. This makes it easy to have one central account that people access without everyone knowing the password.
