KeePass Reviews

Slip sliding away... In 2010, KeePass was a great and wonderful accomplishment. Unfortunately, it's 2022. KeePass looks more and more like a patchwork of incremental changes and improvements built on an outdated application, which makes unreasonable demands on the patience and technical abilities of the average user. No one wants to punch in a password any more if they can avoid it. Two-factor authentication is becoming the norm. Everyone wants their two or more intelligent devices to recognize them automatically. Windows is not the only important operating system any more. KeePass for Windows has not evolved to keep up with modern expectation. While there is a KeePass-compatible app for Android that enables the use of biometrics, there's no native, maintained, fully-functional way to make the KeePass for Windows application use Windows Hello biometrics. (The one plug-in that does this has not been updated for years). Firefox and Chrome trust Windows user identification security ( They don't have to, of course, but who logs in each session to use a browser?) I understand the rationale. I chose not to continue to use KeePass 1.x. Once I decided to use 2.x, I had to trust the encryption routines of the Windows OS. If I want some semblance of convenience, I have to trust the Android KeePass port app author, Google, Mozilla, all other Windows components supplied by Microsoft, my Windows antivirus vendor, Samsung, Dell, and I don't actually know who else. I know they are not completely trustworthy. I am just not the kind of person that goes to the trouble of implementing two-channel keystroke obfuscation. I have made the bet that no criminal or government will ever put a clipboard peeper or keystroke logger onto my computer. Bad things sometimes happen, yes, but if I take reasonable precautions, I may die of old age before any particular bad thing happens to me. Take earthquakes, for example. Should I limit my life experiences by refusing to live only in regions where earthquakes never occur? Now multiply that by every other foreseeable hazard. Is there anywhere left to live? If an application is engineered for people who are so principled, distrustful, and technologically adept that they will only use open-source applications and operating systems running on hardware they assembled themselves, eventually that special group of people will be the only users. I wish you well. Sadly, if something does not change, that's what I think will happen.

This is a great program which I've used for years. Everything I could want from a password manager is here and works perfectly. I've used other pay programs and this beets them all. The only thing I wish is they ported this to other devices (Mac, Linux, iPhone, Android, etc). However; there is other apps on these other OS's that work with the KeePass database files so it isn't the end of the world. Thanks very much developers.

best in market

I have used this application for decades and it is one of the best in class

The best password manager in the world.

Thanks alot to the author, this easy to use software

Perfect tool for people like me who do not want to use the cloud-based password services. The database can be put on the personal cloud but I prefer to copy it over my computers and android (cell phone & tablet). The android version is really good. I recommend it strongly as it seems to me to be the best secure password storage for cloud-sceptics.

Easy to use software, thanks to the author

I love this soft using it for years and years

A very convenient program. Nothing superfluous - and everything you need. Thank you to the creator.

I have used this software for years and it has never failed me

I have been using this product ages (cant remember how much but for sure more than 10 years) it works like a dream - my passwords are synced in all platforms with no issues - ios, android, mac, linux, windows etc... - very easy to use -

Been using this for many many years. It does exactly what I need - lots more in fact. I initially tried others but most charge a fee. I am not a coder, albeit I have worked in an around IT for a long time , and have an (un?)healthy interest in computing, but I really don't understand what is so complicated for some. I have found it more than worth the minor effort involved in learning how to use it for the benefit it provides in daily use.

I have spent four hours trying to get this to work, so far I have one database and one entry into it, which I just deleted trying to enter a new entry. The tutorial is brutally difficult to follow, it depends on a level of coding expertise that I don't have time to develop. (I'm 67) I was looking for a password manager that would function like the one that comes with the Brave browser, and this isn't that, not even close. The reviews are amazing, but I think (after trying to make it work) that all the reviewers are either professional code writers or hackers. The complexity of the menus should have let me know that I would never be able to make it work, but then by accident I found the tutorial. For me, it's faster and easier to make a paper diary with all my passwords. I'd just keep using Brave, but it just deleted all my passwords. Guess I'll just repopulate that one at a time with my paper backup. The scary thing is how dependent the rest of us are, and how poorly you coders communicate directions for using the tools that you make.

Works great to keep track of hundreds of passwords. I've been using it over 10 years now, and recommended it to my friends and family who use it too.

I've used it for many years, and sync/share the db with KeePassDroid for my phone. I see a new file format in 2.48, and would like to install immediately, but for the concern that the droid app might not understand it. The web site help has filled in knowledge gaps, so I've not needed to reach out for support.

Excellent software which makes my online life easier and safe. Easy to use, you can access it from all kinds of devices. P.S. Try not to forget master password :)

A great App. I am still using the 1.x version. It meets my needs and I have yet to find a compelling reason to switch to the 2.x version. I use it on three PCs and I use an Android adaption on my phone. It is easy to use and has helped me remember all those unique passwords for obscure websites that require a login to use them. Thank you for creating and maintaining this wonderful app. My only complaint has nothing to do with the App itself but with an extension to it for backing up the database. It quit working a while ago and stated telling me that the handle for the backup file is invalid, apparently, according to the developer, it is an obscure system problem that I have not had the desire to track down.

Great product! Developers please note, v2.47 just released has an error. When launching, I get 'Configuration error' window with a link to to file. 'Failed to load the specified file! ".", hexadecimal value 0x00, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 1 (ok button to dismiss). Keepass will maybe overwrite the configuration file. Therefore a backup has been created (with a hyperlink to file included). The program still opens, and changes seem to be saved. When closing the program you get this window: Configuration error! (link to program file) Failed to save to the specified file! Access is denied (ok button to dismiss) Any way you could fix this with an update? Thank you!

Works perfect !

Easy to use, simple and secure Password manager.

Excellent. And surprising alternative to dashlane or software like this, and the best for free!

Interesante dinamica

Thank you very much for the program!

excellent project
