[QUOTE="R2D2, post: 1019540, member: 64945"] [USER=96829]@piquiteco[/USER] about 1Password - their customer support is friendly and quite responsive. I think they're flooded, as would be Bitwarden support, with enquiries after the LP fiasco. For good user interface look no further than 1Password. Next is Dashlane and then Bitwarden. In terms of security they all claim to be secure but then Lastpass claimed this too until the #hit hit the fan last month. :D For noobs I'd suggest 1PW without a doubt and for flexibility (self hosting) and geeks it would be Bitwarden. Dashlane is somewhere in the middle. Like LP, Dashlane only has a web UI. They discontinued their desktop app in '21 or '22. Dashlane uses the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argon2']Argon2 [/URL]KDF by default but can switch to PBKDF2 in the account setting.

They restored my wife's account but could not restore mine. I checked the KDF iteration value was 5000.
