- Rated 5 out of 5by mkrubsack, 7 years agoVery nice addition. Works for me. No reason to fool around with Lastpass any longer. This is a great addon!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13395031, 7 years agoBrilliant extension for a brilliant password manager. Constantly improving and adding new features, and it's open source.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Onepack, 7 years agoI've been using Lastpass which has worked well for me. I got sick of browser crashes and decided to try the new Quantum browser (beta) WOW - fast. However it doesn't support Lastpass and after a bit of research, I decided to try Bitwarden. I am very impressed - took me about three minutes to import hundreds of logins (took almost a week to set up Lastpass). Everything seems to be working, no problems so far. Nice UI (in my opinion) and very logical and easy to use. I think they've done a great job and as someone with decades of experience in all aspects of IT, it is really good to see a system that seems to have been designed for people, rather than computers.
- Rated 5 out of 5by jorgegarciar, 7 years agoThe only friction point is that many times the dialog offering me to save a password disappears before I can click it.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13351339, 7 years agoMake an option to store the password on hdd and i trust you.

posted 7 years agoHI, this will likely never be an option. You may want to consider using a solution like KeePass instead if this is what you desire. - Rated 5 out of 5by Bill, 7 years agoIt does the job just fine!
i used last pass and i was looking for a better alternatives. i tried a lot of addons that have apps for mobile and non of them worked as good as this. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13365548, 7 years agoAt first I was a little concerned about ditching LastPass when moving to Quantum, but those worries quickly evaporated after a few days with bitwarden. Though I've run into a few quirks with the mobile app on Android (namely, it not properly detecting fields in browsers other than Chrome) I'm glad I switched over.
The UI is much more slick and clean than LastPass on both PC and mobile, and I've had far fewer site detection problems with bitwarden. There's notably less feature bloat as well. It does what it's supposed to do and doesn't stretch itself thin.
Tip #1: At first glance it may seem like there's not an auto-fill feature for this addon on Firefox, but you can enable it in the experimental features tab.
Tip #2: My migration with LastPass mostly went without a hitch, but there were a couple sites using certain characters that didn't move over friendly. So if you have trouble logging into a site after switching you may have to change your password for a site here or there, depending on the frequency you use those characters in your passwords. - Rated 4 out of 5by Jason, 7 years agoThis addon is a must for anyone looking to escape the world of Closed Source Software. As such the biggest pro is this is open-source. However some limitations amount to annoyances. LastPass atleast for the moment has better detection on password changes and registrations (atleast on Linux tested on Google-Chrome, Firefox and Chromium). Another annoyance I recently ran into is premium features I would suggest should be able to be toggled off so as to not make this software feel like shareware/freeware. The import of my LastPass Vault went pretty straight forward but had a few minor issues that I quickly figured out.... Infact its been a few months since and I can't recall but I believe it had to do with a few comments?? Luckily nothing major and I have a huge vault so I expect most users to be able to import without problems and whatever issue I may have ran into likely may have already been corrected. This addon has a lot of potental so please don't view my review as anything but constructive criticism! Currently I am on the fence over detection of changed passwords/missed registrations since thats a huge pro for me. I'd give this 3 stars if it were not for the open-source factor which is a huge security improvement in password management. Encryption is nice but if it is implimented poorly it is useless so by being open-source I feel that user scrutiny will catch anything that might not be caught in closed-sourced software.
- Rated 4 out of 5by François Villeneuve, 7 years agoDoesn't have as much snappy features as LastPass but that's not all a bad thing. LastPass is turning into a bloated app and costs a fair bit more for the premium version, so the simplicity here is welcome. I wish its generator had support for multisyllabic readable passwords like LastPass.
- Rated 5 out of 5by CircARgs, 7 years agoThus far it outperforms LastPass in all features they share.
- Rated 2 out of 5by mecki78, 7 years agoBitwarden used to be great and offered a lot of great features over competitors but as with many projects that got successful, its owners currently run it down. They implement useless features and make changes nobody has ever requested. Despite protest they are not talking the changes back. On the other hand they ignore customer requests, even from paying customers and direct all oft that into a new forum which in fact is just to get all of that out of the way as nobody from Bitwarden ever looks into that forum or cares for the complains of customers there. Currently I cannot recommend that password manager any longer. Oh, and the new color theme is horrible, hundreds of users have complained about it but Bitwarden doesn't care.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13356174, 7 years agoBitWarden is the way passwords are done! Sharing features are spot on, usability is near perfect. I am definitely on-board for what this product accomplishes in the long run!
