I have been using this FOSS for a little over 5 years now. Absolutely hands down best password manager experience I've ever had. I cannot think of one downside to this software. Easily used across all of my devices seamlessly.

Bitwarden is an incredible piece of software. I would recommend anyone looking at self-hosting an instance to look at VaultWarden. It's an alternative implementation to the official Bitwarden server that enables almost all premium functionality.

My only complaint with Bitwarden at all is around offline vault editing (which is such a niche use case). Right now, if you lose connection to the server (either your self hosted, or the official Bitwarden Hosted instance) you are only able to view your vault in read only mode. They have an item in the road map to allow offline editing, but it looks to be a long way out.

I love vaultwarden. Been using the beta builds to have auto sync work on mobile now. High quality service!

Agree totally. A great project that just works. Love it

My employer users Lastpass, a commercial solution. That hasn't been a good experience, with downtime, forced re-passwording and worst, having our details stolen from them.

Didn't they have like 3 security breaches in the last couple of years? They have sucked since they were bought by logmein.

They have a nice CLI which has been really awesome to pair with my dotfiles manager. Definitely one of my favorite and most useful used-daily software.

I used 1password for over two years and switched to bitwarden 1 year ago

Easy transition, however bitwarden is not as feature rich. There are a couple things I miss like vaults and items like database credentials or ftp and so on. The mobile android extension is not as good at picking up login forms

I will still use it rather than 1password for it being free and open-source

Bitwarden definitely has vaults. I believe you just have to pay for the full version to get it.
