"A Simple Yet Powerful Offline Password Vault"
What do you like best about KeePass?

KeePass is completely free, secure, and lightweight. It gives you full control over your passwords without relying on any cloud dependency. The encryption is strong, the database stays local, and the portability makes it easy to use across systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

The UI looks outdated compared to modern password managers, and syncing across devices requires manual setup or third-party tools. It’s powerful but not very beginner-friendly, especially when configuring plugins or automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Secure offline password manager, difficult to manage for large teams"
What do you like best about KeePass?

It is one of the only completely offline password managers, which means that theoretically it is safer than the cloud-based alternatives (LastPass, etc.). There is no SaaS-portal which can be broken into and to gain access to your passwords, someone would need to steal the file from your device's hard drive, and decrypt it with your master password.

The UI itself is quite clunky, similar to Windows file explorer, but it is easy to use. You create folders, give items' names and do simple copy/paste operations to the system you want to log in to.

The system is easy to set up. You install an app on your device, create a place to store your KeePass file and you can start entering in credentials.

The product is used by many individuals, as well as a lot of smaller companies, so there is a lot of good online support to be found if you have a problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

Sharing password across multiple people is a challenge; you need to either have the same password in each individual user's KeePass file, or you need to share a single KeePass file among multiple people, which has a couple of security risks if not implemented properly.

The biggest problem for me was as an administrator, where you are trying to make sure that all passwords are unique, strong and secure. I want to be sure that everyone in the organisation has:

- A good password to get into their vault

- Every password in their vault is unique and strong

- Every KeePass file is stored in a safe place

- Every KeePass file is backed up somewhere in case a device crashes

Any one of these files is not impossible to do with KeePass, but it does require a lot of manual steps and ultimately, if the size of your user base grows, it becomes a managerial nightmare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Ultimate Open Source Password Tool for Simplicity and Clarity"
What do you like best about KeePass?

Ultimate personal and organizational open source password tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

It lacks all novelties of modern apps and soft, but it pays you back with simplicity and understanding of how it works from the box. However, saving database is still a bit tricky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Must Have"
What do you like best about KeePass?

I use this for work and wish I had it for my person life as well. Life has to many apps, programs, logins and passwords to remember them all. This is a must have for me, because there is no way I can remember them all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

I have not found any down sides to this app, it's perfect for what I use it for. Just remember to hit the little save file after you make any additions or changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Old but still usable friend"
What do you like best about KeePass?

KeePass keeps all accesses in one place. It has the ability to generate TOTP codes and dock them itself when authenticating. The database containing passwords is stored in a file, but it is possible to synchronise with a remote source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

There is nothing like simple credentials between users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"KeePass OpenSource secured password manager"
What do you like best about KeePass?

1. The password database protection come with master password and key file, without those both thing anyone just can't do with my password database. So, it's give me a lot of security.

2. Non technical person can easily setup the KeePass on that computer

3. I can store my important files along with my password entries. (like, backup code file) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

1. There is no any official support of cloud sync. (Many plugins are available but it will never work like official cloud sync)

2. No any option to self-host it on my server. (for ex. vaultwarden password manager give this facilities) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use and Secure"
What do you like best about KeePass?

KeePass is very easy to use. I am using it since last 5 years to keep my password safe. You can organize your keys/passwords, it can autofill your passwords. You can use your master database file safe and use it on another PC with Keepass software installed so it is easy to migrate to another PC while is secure with your master password. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

It does gives the notification when new version is available. I think it should get updated automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Trustworthy, Fairly Customizable, Flexible, Offline Password Management Solution"
What do you like best about KeePass?

KeePass has become my go-to solution for secure password management, and as a user, there are a few features that I appreciate. Firstly, I really value the fact that KeePass is an offline solution, ensuring that my sensitive data stays within my control at all times. It seamlessly integrates into my backup routine, allowing me to incorporate it into my overall data protection strategy. The absence of a built-in cloud sync option is actually a benefit for me as it grants me the freedom to choose my preferred cloud sync and backup providers. I can also implement additional encryption solutions to further fortify my password database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

I fine the implementation of plugins lacking. Unfortunately, there is no straightforward way to determine the trustworthiness of individual plugins. Consequently, I choose to err on the side of caution and refrain from using any of them. I believe it would greatly enhance the user experience if KeePass could provide a more reliable system for verifying the authenticity and security of plugins. This would instill greater confidence in users looking to extend the functionality of KeePass while maintaining the highest standards of security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Improve and secure your password with KeePass"
What do you like best about KeePass?

KeePass is free to use, without hidden costs or subscription fees.. KeePass uses AES encryption to ensure your passwords are secure and protected from unauthorized access. KeePass stores passwords in an encrypted database, which can only be unlocked with a master password or key file. KeePass is available for Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, and iOS, making accessing your passwords on any device easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about KeePass?

The only thing I do not like in KeePass is that, Unlike some other password managers, it does not offer automatic syncing across devices, so you'll need to transfer your password database between devices manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
