dbrewood Posted February 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 I use KeePassXC a Mac variant of KeePass (PC). It works very well for me, hosted on the Mac (iCloud) with multi-cloud and NAS backups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenalB Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 I also used KeePassXC. But there aren't any templates. And you are using this to store your software licenses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbrewood Posted February 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Yep works nicely for me. I either use the logon form or notes for the keys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to say after many years with Enpass I've moved myself and the family over to Bitwarden. At least that works nicely with Brave (Chromium variant) browser. The problem with Bitwarden is that it stores the data in the cloud which I do not feel is safe. Also the GUI is ugly. Enpass imported 1password data much smoother. Also it doesn't have the most important shortcut for me : cmd+\ (ctrl+\) . But if I find Enpass with continued trouble and problems, I guess I have to move to Bitwarden finally.

So I did not give up on Bitwarden. you are a good man On 2/2/2022 at 6:31 PM, dbrewood said: I use KeePassXC a Mac variant of KeePass (PC).

I keep thinking I might try other password managers too, but then I look at all the comparing I did before settling on Enpass in the first place, and it's the only such app that has the combination of features I need (among them: multiple, sharable vaults stored where *I* choose; custom templates & hugely customizable within each Item/entry). I wish Enpass were a bigger player (hardly ever gets mentioned in articles comparing password software), so they would have more money for better development. I know they're a small team, and I know they work hard, but yeah, Enpass is always a little frustrating, and only becoming more so with non-committal "I have forwarded this to the concerned team for further investigation" replies to bug reports.

(They used to be more engaged.) I did much research and found that :- Enpass is the only app that sells a license, multiplatform, nice GUI, and lets you store you vault where you want with WiFi sync. This is Enpass wining card here. The app is 70-80% there it only needs some bug fixes, some ironing out, and some polish. I guess the best thing we can do for Enpass is to advertise it and tell our friends about it. They can do some marketing too. Unfortunately , password managers are kind of like email where if you pick one you just end up sticking with it forever. There is also Codebook which I do not feel the developers behind it are serious or dedicated to it and Stickypassword which has a $200 lifetime purchase (albeit reasonable if it means 30+ years of updates) and even more obscure than Enpass but their software might be very good I have no idea, they claim they have been around since 2001. I think we can all agree we need more Enpass user base so maybe they can do some marketing and be the anti-1password but first impressions are important and bring back that cmd+\ that everyone loves!

And the same I did (or do) with password managers. I think I tried nearly all of them. 46 minutes ago, flyingbirds said: Stickypassword which has a $200 lifetime purchase (albeit reasonable if it means 30+ years of updates) I bought a lifetime license for $30. That's a fair price, I think. Edited February 6, 2022 by DenalB Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
