I've used Bitwarden for years. I have never had it fail to recognize a website where I have saved the log on info. I wouldn't use any other password manager.
Bitwaden is good, just switched today from Lastpass, but it still anonys me (I assume their all the same and nothing can be done), but if a field is on another page (ie. logging into Gmail, TH-cam etc...), you have to autofull creds. *twice*...Its probably a website "issue" because it also happened with Lastpass, but that's the thing that annoys me most.. You'd think you could just share the details across the page, (same domain). I mean, we're in a system where we share 'encrypted' passwords these days with other people via these password managers (Lastpass had this anyway)... You wouldn't be allowing that if you thought it wasn't secure... So i see no problem doing it here.' It's just something that always "trips" me up. time and time again, I assume "that's how it is" and i live with it,, but its still annoying as hell.
He failed to mention third-party auditing of their process to make sure the zero knowledge is truly zero knowledge. It's always important to have outside people in validate your security process.
When you has options for getting back lost Master Password, its deemed "not secure enough' you have a backdoor left open, but when its too strict, like Bitwarden or Apple (if you forget something, that's it) People will go insane. I do think i'm not one of those insane ones, but i also think options should be given for setting a 'new' master password... That way, you meet in the middle.. It will take time to re-encypt all passwords in your Vault, but nothing ever comes easy either.. As 'open' as Bitwarden says it is, i'm really surprised no-ones thought of implemting this. Take a lesson from Lastpass. (that's the ONLY time i would taking a lesson from a breached service), but its specific.
Paying does give you useful features and there is no reason why we can't pay 10$ a year. You are basically buying someone who works on the project a couple pints a year. And you still need those pages, just stick them in safe somewhere.
$10/year for 1 app is fine, but if you normalize these business practices, you will soon be paying $10/year for multiple apps. Before you know it you will be sinking 1k per year on different apps if every piece of technology knows they can charge a subscription fee and get away with it. Easiest way to combat this is to resist this kind of business model and not normalize it.
I've been using Bitwarden for more than a year. Mostly in my office laptop running ubuntu. Today I changed it to new MacBook Pro M2. As I installed the Bitwarden client on it, it was giving me "Unusual traffic" issue on master account login. At the same time and on same n/w, it was working fine in other devices. Not sure if it's actually an issue with new Apple silicon or what? Currently raised a ticket to Bitwarden's support. Let's see how it goes!
I appreciate the zesty review. a dimension I am interested to know is a) the ability to make a local backup of the vault file? the intention is to be insulated to the online vault in case of a BW disappearance. b) can we locate the windows vault file? c) or would the process be Export and then backup that export?
While this seems to be a good overview, for arguably the most important part, security, did you do any tests/security audits to actually confirm what they are claiming, or were you just taking what they were saying at face value? Overall the video was a good overview of the service, but it seemed a bit too much like an 8-minute advertisement with all their marketing buzzwords and graphics rather than a proper in-depth test for me, especially considering the "Is it Actually Secure?" in the title, implying that you thoroughly tested it.
I agree. audits are much better as 'proof' otherwise all your trusting is your own security.. However, even audits are not 100%... Look at what happened with Lastpass... I always think open source in general, would be more hack-able, however the positives bugs would be fixed quicker as well When everyone screamed when Lastpass source code leaked, and everyone 'jumped ship' to Bitwarden (... and others....) that was only just "one" employees personal computer, and source code was only known "within the company". Imagine what happens when everyone has access to that source code like Bitwarden ? Seems more people put more faith in security, than they do with how many eyeballs are looking at the code. (which is probably why we all use open source software today like Firefox)
I have experience with Bitwarden and while it has some shortcomings that you have mentioned, it is user-friendly. However, it may not be the best option for those who are not tech-savvy due to issues such as password changing and other features. Please do a 2023 password program update and note It from self-hosting to easy of use "something even mom would uses" Probably be more than one video. Passbolt seems like it's crowding Bitward. Still need to try to program myself
The price should not be factored in to the star rating. The star rating should be based 100% on features, ease of use, privacy, security, etc. We can all then decide if the above is a good choice for whatever the cost might be. We should not be using anyone else's "price" value system. Give us the facts about the product or service, and we will decide what is the item's value. Whether the price is $1, $100, or $100,000, does not change what the product is, how it performs, etc. If Bitwarden changed their pricing, it should not change the software's rating. The software is what the software is. We will decide if it is worth the purchase price. Please rate only the review item, and not let the price influence the overall rating that you give it.
They don't have access to it. your vault gets encrypted from your own PC and then it ends up on their cloud servers locked. you basically have a locked briefcase in their system that they themselves cant access.

@@upriver7292 so was Lastpass, and they didn't manage to stay good on that either. Auditing helps, but its not fool proof, and shouldn't be treated as such. Its more secure, no doubt..
I like how he just chucks pieces of paper over his shoulder. That was me as a child 😆 The only good thing, for me anyway, of paying $1 would be "security reports" but apart from that, i handle my own security, so not interested in the rest of the "features' still...maybe i will pay just to support them. No matter how many people keep telling me, my privacy will be gone if i give my my mobile number to 'another company' for 2FA. Apple already knows it, that is enough. But it wasn't by choice.. They 'enforce' if on signup of AppleID, otherwise i wouldn't be using it. What i get out of it: is irreverent . Period. For me, not trust as much is much more important.

Amazing content, man

Not much as their free plan is still; a fully functioning password manager. You'd lose whatever extra features the paid plan offers.
