NB – It needs to be stressed how generous the Bitwarden free account is here, many competing password managers with a free account will usually have some limitations including limiting the number of passwords being stored or the number of devices able to synchronise. Once on the Bitwarden premium plan (for individuals), accounts will be upgraded to include an additional 1GB of secure cloud storage (which is synchronised between connected devices), use of the Bitwarden authenticator service, advanced 2FA options, emergency access, premium support plus advanced security reporting amongst other useful benefits.Īlso available from Bitwarden are multiple other account options for families, businesses and teams which offer additional business / sharing facilities including SSO (single sign on), configuration of user groups plus advanced sharing and collaboration features amongst various other useful capabilities. Moving on past this free to use account and Bitdefender also offer their individual users the option of subscribing to a premium version of the same service for an additional $10 per year ( very good value if you ask me). This is not only because it is 100% open-source and free to use, but also thanks to Bitwarden offering free cloud synchronisation of the password vault between an unlimited number of personal devices plus the ability to store an unlimited number of passwords ( a very generous quota for a free to use password manager). The Bitwarden Free account will for many be the ideal solution to password management.

NB – Bitwarden also offer users the ability to install and self-host their own Bitwarden service upon their own server hardware! Since this is a very specialist use of the service (and only relevant to a small number of users) I will not be covering this particular Bitwarden setup any further in my review! Time to check out the latest version of Bitwarden for myself and see how it fares in 2023, vamos!īefore signing up to Bitwarden for myself, one of the first things to address in this review is the Bitwarden managed service offering and, specifically, the differences between the free and premium plans.

Not only is Bitwarden very easy to configure and use, but the numerous security features which are built into the service and the open-source software all combine to help to make this a very reassuring and reliable password manager for a multitude of different use cases.

I previously reviewed Bitwarden back in 2020 and was very impressed with the overall password manager service which was on offer. This means not only are the Bitwarden password manager apps subject to the highest standards of security and scrutiny, but also form a great choice for anyone seeking a low-cost way to manage their own passwords or those of a team or small business. One of the most notable features of Bitwarden is that the software produced is free and open source (including the Bitwarden server software should you want to run the service on your own hardware). Bitwarden has in recent years firmly established itself as a leading password manager, one which is noticeably very safe, secure, reliable and easy to use making it a great alternative to the industries big names including Dashlane, 1Password and LastPass.
