Passwords and other form information you submit to a website are automatically captured by RoboForm and saved into the program's database.
Once set up, browsers that use RoboForm integration sport a toolbar. You can always change which plug-ins you use, should you happen to switch browsers later. RoboForm comes with plug-ins for close integration with most common Web browsers - Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and IE - which you have the option to install when you first set up the program. It's broadly useful outside of just browser log-ins. It stores not just log-ins, but also browser bookmarks, user identities, personal contacts, and sundry notes and comments. RoboForm RoboForm has been around since 1999, growing from a general Web-form-filling program to a full-blown password and credential manager.
Password Safe is reminiscent of KeePass, but doesn't integrate as tightly with the rest of your system as KeePass does. To use autotype reliably with this feature, you need to store the log-in URL with the username/password entry, and not just the general domain name as you can with KeePass.Ĭost: Free open source. It's a minor drawback, but it becomes annoying after a while. With Password Safe, you can define a global hotkey to bring up the main program menu (it's not assigned by default), but from there you have to select the appropriate entry and perform autotype yourself. With those programs, a single master hotkey activates those programs and performs autotype for a password for the current domain. Password Safe has an assignable global hotkey system, but it falls a little short of its counterpart in KeePass and 1Password. You can also create custom rule handlers for specific Web pages. This is a handy way to deal with Web pages where autotype doesn't work correctly. Drag and drop one of a set of icons (username, password, URL) into a target window, and the text for the selected entry will be pasted to the target.
The import function is designed to accept files exported from KeePass, but I was only able to get files exported from the 1.x version of KeePass to import properly.ĭrag-and-drop is also supported, in an intriguing way. A selected password entry can have its username and password autotyped into another window by pressing a user-defined hotkey. Passwords are stored in an encrypted, password-protected file, and they can be arranged in categories and searched for by keyword.
Password Safe's core feature set should be familiar by now. Working with Password Safe requires a bit more manual effort to get the same results. Password SafeAn open source program that feels like a stripped-down KeePass, Password Safe has many of the same functions but they don't feel as complete. Note that the paid version is required to use the LastPass mobile apps. LastPass works entirely in your browser, syncing your passwords to a cloud-based service.
