How many times have you forgotten your passwords this year? What about this week? You might
even be trying to remember one right now! That’s why a good password manager is a
must. It’ll save you tons of time and endless password resets.
But which manager should you choose? Don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. In this video,
we’ll be covering the top 5 password managers of 2022.
And if you’d like to purchase any of the password managers we have covered in this
video, be sure to check out the links in the description box below. These links will give
you access to exclusive discounts, our way of saying thank you to you for watching.
And just in case you’re wondering how we have ranked these products, we have judged
each password manager based on five key aspects. These are Features, Security, Ease of Use,
and Pricing. Now let’s jump right into it.
We will be covering our top picks in descending order. So stick with us till the end to see
which one is the best of them all. The 5th password manager on this list is 1Password.
1Password is one of the richest password managers out there in terms of features.
The first one is Watchtower. Now, you may be wondering, “what does the watchtower
do?” Well, it does a whole lot of things, to be
honest. It scans the entire dark web for breached financial data and login details, helps you
generate strong passwords, and to strengthen security, it audits your password vault to
ensure it’s really secure. Another nice feature 1Password comes with
is the Travel model. This feature helps hide sensitive passwords so that invasive border
officers won’t be able to access your private data.
Cool, right? That’s not all. 1Password will also help
you autofill your passwords when filling forms and shopping online, thanks to the built-in
autofill feature. Plus it automatically syncs your data across all your devices, which saves
you time saving passwords separately on each device.
And if you need to share your passwords with friends and colleagues, you can easily do
that via the guest account feature. The only catch here is that it’s only available on
the family plan. 1Password also delivers the goods when it
comes to security. It’s especially reassuring that it protects your data with the standard
AES 256-bit encryption, so there’s no need to worry about hackers.
And what about 2-factor authentication? 1Password offers that as well. The tool is compatible
with popular 2FA apps like Authy, Fido, and Yubikey. There’s a built-in authenticator,
so you may want to take a look at that first. Not only that, but you can also log in using
your biometrics. You can use either the Face ID or Touch ID.
While 1Password doesn’t have a free version, there’s a 14-day free trial that lets you
test the waters. Their basic plan costs $2.99, while the Family
plan costs just $4.99. The Family plan only gives five licenses, but you can access more
for $1 each. Now before we go any further, I’d like to
ask you for a small favor. Would you mind giving this video a quick ‘like’? We’re
trying to get this video up to 1000 likes and we’d so appreciate you helping us out.
Ok done? Thank you! Alright, next up in 4th place, we have Dashlane.
Not many password managers can match Dashlane in terms of features. I’ll have to warn
you, though – it’s a bit more expensive than its rivals but, in my opinion, it gives
bang for your buck. Dashlane is one of the very few password managers
that comes with a VPN feature. How cool is that?
But that’s not all. It also comes with a feature I like to call the bulk password changer,
which can help you reset dozens of passwords at once. The only catch with this feature
is that not every website supports it. As you’d probably expect, Dashlane features
dark-web monitoring, which, as it sounds, scans the dark web for your logins and financial
data. These features alone justify Dashlane’s prices.
Dashlane also lets you import passwords from different password managers, and unlike many
of its rivals, you can share encrypted passwords with some preset emergency contacts.
On top of that, Dashlane comes with an autofill feature. And this can come in handy if you
enjoy online shopping. Your data’s security is also kept safe with
Dashlane. With reliable security measures like AES 256-bit encryption, 2-factor authentication,
and zero-knowledge architecture, intruders won’t stand a chance accessing your vault
or your sensitive data. Most people, including me, love the fact that
Dashlane offers a free plan. The freemium plan limits you to just one device and 50
passwords but, to me, that’s a pretty good offer.
If you’d like to enjoy all the premium features though, you can upgrade to either Essential,
Premium, or the Family plan. The two-device Essentials plan will set you back $2.49 per
month, but when billed annually, it works out to be just $1.99 per month.
The 6-device Premium plan is a little more expensive, at $3.99 per month, but also works
out at $3.33 per month when billed annually. But if you still need more licenses, then
I recommend the Family plan. For up to 6 licenses, you only need to pay
a subscription fee of $5.99 per month, or $4.99 per month if billed annually. That’s
pretty good. The next password manager on our list is LastPass.
LastPass offers a lot more than regular password managers.
For starters, it comes with a password generator. And we all know how difficult it is to come
up with strong passwords, right? But this tool doesn’t only help you generate
strong passwords – it also helps you save them.
Who doesn’t love that? LastPass also comes with other nice tools
like password sharing, autofill, unlimited passwords, automatic data syncing, one-touch
login, and emergency access. The emergency access feature lets you select
people that can access your vault without your authorization. This can come in handy
during an emergency. Lastpass has dark-web monitoring like every
other top password manager too, and this means it will notify you if your data ever makes
it to the dark web. Oh, there’s 1GB of cloud storage too, which
I think is a big flex that may cause your non-LastPass-using friends to envy you.
This password manager also supports 2-factor authentication, multi-factor authentication,
and military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. That’s like the holy trinity of digital
security! Ain’t nobody gonna hack your vault or steal your data.
But it doesn’t end there. LastPass also uses leading-edge Transport Layer Security
to prevent in-transit attacks. And you can log in with your biometrics, which is also
a nice touch. The interface also looks superb and it’s
easy to use, which probably matters more to most people than fine looks. You don’t have
to install a Lastpass client on your computer either. The full-featured web interface and
browser extensions are enough. There are compatible clients for Mac and Windows as well.
Lastpass has a free version, but unfortunately, It’s a barebones version of the paid version.
The paid plans are quite affordable though. The single-device Premium plan costs $3 per
month, while the Family plan will set you back just $4 per month.
If LastPass sounds like the password manager for you, make sure you purchase a plan through
our Lastpass link in the description box! You’ll receive an exclusive discount to
save you even more money. In the second place, we have Keeper.
Keeper’s name alone speaks for itself. The app is designed to securely save your passwords
and any other important information while still offering you the highest level of service.
It’s such a keeper! Now you might be wondering, “what’s special
about Keeper?” Well for starters, it’s especially suitable
for businesses with its unique features like password sharing, Identity management, and
KeeperChat, which is an encrypted messenger to send and receive messages securely.
The messaging app also comes with unique features like retraction and self-destruction messages,
so you can leave no traces of your conversation behind. Particularly good if privacy is important
to you. Of course, there are some other more common
features as well. You’ll find inclusions like dark-web monitoring, which needs no introduction
by now. And there are other features like password security auditing, password generator,
autofill, and 10GB of cloud storage as well. Keeper also features an incredible tool called
BreachWatch, which watches out for any breached passwords and quickly alerts you.
Keeper also takes your security seriously with military-grade AES 256-bit encryption.
Keeper also comes with a zero-knowledge structure, which basically means that you’re the only
person that knows your master password. Keeper really does a lot to show their transparency
as well, and I love it. They also encrypt your data on the go, which means their servers
won’t store any readable data that can be traced back to you.
The tool has an easy-to-use and intuitive interface. There are different tabs for BreachWatch,
security audits, passwords, and Identities, which simplify everything.
What’s more? You can use this password manager on all your devices.
What about pricing? Keeper’s plans are flexible enough. There are two Personal plans – Keeper
Unlimited and Keeper Plus Bundle, which cost $2.91 per month and $4.87 per month, respectively.
There are also two Family plans – Keeper Family and Keeper Family Plus Bundle, costing
$6.24 per month and $8.62 per month, respectively. If you like the sound of Keeper be sure to
purchase through the link we’ve provided in the description box. This link will give
you a special 30% discount that you won’t want to miss out on!
And finally, our highest-rated password manager is **roll the curtain** RoboForm.
Roboform comes with loads of excellent features and solid security measures. But probably
the most attractive part of the tool has got to be the affordable plans and its smooth
user experience. We will talk more about that later. For now, let’s look at the features.
There are some basic features like one-click login, automatic syncing, and password generator.
Then there are some more advanced features like emergency access, and Security Center,
which evaluates your passwords and lets you know if they’re weak or compromised.
The app’s interface is more intuitive than anything I’ve seen with any password manager.
It gives you a polished user experience. Each time you log in to a new website, a prompt
asks you to save your password just as soon as you enter your credentials.
And with the one-click login, you don’t even need to enter the address of the website
you want to visit. Just open the extension on your browser, select that site from the
list under “logins,” and viola! Super easy, isn’t it?
What makes RoboForm a joy to use is that it has the best form-filling technology on the
market. Not only does this mean it always enters in the password on the login page,
it also helps fill in your personal information like emails, phone number, name, or vehicle
information. But enough about the features now. What about
the security? Well, I’d say RoboForm offers the most solid security measures.
Apart from supporting the standard AES 256-bit encryption, the tool also supports multiple
2FA options. Two-factor authentication means no one can access your data without your permission.
Pretty cool, right? That’s not all there is to RoboForm. Their
newly updated interface is also amazing. It’s easy to use, and to me, that’s the most
important thing. You’ll find everything you need on the main menu.
And what about the mobile apps? They are very modern and functional.
While RoboForm offers a free plan, I’d say you’ve gotta buy a subscription to get the
full RoboForm experience. This gets you all of the bells and whistles like syncing across
all your devices, secure backup and sharing, and premium support. Unlike most other password
managers, RoboForm offers live chat and phone support to Everywhere subscribers, in addition
to 24/7 assistance via their ticketing system. The plans only cost a few bucks, so why not?
RoboForm Everywhere, the single-license personal plan, only costs $1.99 per month or $23.88
per year. If you need more licenses though, you’ll be better off with Everywhere Family,
which costs $3.97 per month or $47.75 per year. It offers as many as five licenses,
so it’s a true family plan. And the best part? That’s right! The Cyber
Lab viewers can get a massive 30% discount on RoboForm, just make sure you buy Roboform
through the special link in the description box of this video and this discount will be
automatically applied. So there you have it, folks. The password
managers we’ve reviewed in this video are the absolute best you can find. Roboform takes
the number one spot for offering a balance between great performance and pricing. Keeper
and LastPass are also two excellent options that could make it to the top spot, but both
are a little more expensive. So with that, we’ll bring down the curtain
on today’s video. If you enjoyed this video, be sure to give it a like and subscribe to
