- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13295290, 7 years agoAs they add more features it will be even greater, but as of now it blows LP out of the water.
- Rated 5 out of 5by GuillermoBB, 7 years agoUsaba LastPass hasta que dejó de andar con Firefox 57 y buscando por casualidad y suerte llegué a BitWarden. No vuelvo más a LastPass porque éste es mucho mejor, software libre y gratuito en todas las plataformas.
- Rated 5 out of 5by yuleself, 7 years agothanks for the improving!
another feature request: can we have an option to remove the badge number on the right corner of the icon? - Rated 5 out of 5by Gabriel, 7 years agoOpen source, excellent paid service, storage, TOTP support, U2F support... The only thing this is missing is form fills and secondary password authentication. So much nicer to use than Lastpass. Highly recommended!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Dade, 7 years agoSomeone named this extension when talking about the absolute 0 support of LP to F57. It's damn great!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Alin Panaitiu, 7 years agoThis is awesome! You can see there's a lot of work put into this. I can finally ditch LastPass.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13321014, 7 years agoVery useful addon and Android app. Could not live without it. Opensource so I know there be no malware inside. Top.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Pothi Kalimuthu, 7 years agoFingers crossed on how it'd evolve in the future! For now, it looks great and works as expected!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Joe Hillenbrand, 7 years agoBetter looking, faster, easier to use, and more reliable than Lastpass!
And it's FOSS!?! Dreams really do come true! - Rated 4 out of 5by Nick Burgess, 7 years agoUsed to be with LastPass and this is a great alternative, open source free and a good developer to back it up. The extension is easy to use and seems to work great.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Dario, 7 years agoIt works very well, is available also on the phone and has a clean interface. I migrated from LastPass in 5 minutes. Autofill can be enabled in preferences.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 6941134, 7 years ago* Compatible with latest version of firefox, not restart needed
* Importing from lastpass work fine, barring one quirk about the ampersand character
* Autofill doesn't work, but I don't need that anyways
* Not as feature rich as lastpass, but good enough for day-to-day usage
* Open source software, being improved constantly
* Clean user interface, looks better than lastpass
#### Update
Autofill actually works (mostly), but it's marked as experimental.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks for the review. I'm curious why you cannot get auto-fill to work. Do you mind sending more details to hello@bitwarden.com? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12563786, 7 years agoApp works on FF 57, and simply the fact that the analytics setting is off by default makes me trust them. Also, open source of course so yeah...
- Rated 2 out of 5by Tiso, 7 years agoI tried importing my passwords from LastPass using the web vault import tool, but it failed to recognize some passwords: several special characters where converted to HTML entities (& to &), making passwords invalid.
It also fails to properly import special formatted notes like credit cart, ftp server logins and WiFi passwords, transforming them in plain text notes.
For some time 2FA authentication with Google Authenticator failed, completely locking me outside of my vault. Seems to be fixed now.
The web vault includes Google Analytics script. Analytics have no place in a vault where I store all my private passwords. It should not even be a opt-in choice. It severely damages the trust I have in this service.
Still feels like a beta service. I'll just wait for the LastPass team to updated their extension to work with Firefox 57+.Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi Tiso,
Thanks for the feedback.
On your note about the import, this is actually a bug from LastPass's export and we have it documented with a warning during importing.
Secure notes are not fully supported at this time, which is why they are converted to regular notes. This feature will be coming out within the next month. - Rated 5 out of 5by tpiom, 7 years agoI used Lastpass for a number of years but finally let it go after so many problems: it became slow, customer support never replied (WTF?!), I was unable to export my passwords (it just reloaded)
So, I turned my attention to Bitwarden and I think I'm in love!
It's very easy and straightforward. It does everything Lastpass did for me, but better!
Full rating!
I may even buy premium (just $10 a year) to support them. I don't really need the features, even. - Rated 4 out of 5by Rick, 7 years agoBecause of all the issues that have popped up with Last Pass in Firefox I gave Bitwarden a try. So far it works well. Last Pass info can be exported into Bitwarden wiih little effort. So far it seems to work a little smoother than LP but I haven't tried much more than simple logons. I tried to find help on the LP problems but gave up. They don't seem to be interested. Lots of forum posts about it but I couldn't find any solutions. Another company took over and soon after doubled the subscription rate. Bitwarden is $10/year. I'll give it a try for a while and will likely go to the Premium.
- Rated 4 out of 5by charles.ee, 7 years agoEdit: One huge plus in Bitwarden's favor is actually implementing 2fa in a way that makes sense. If you want to use a Yubikey, but then fall back to Google Authenticator, you can. Unlike Lastpass, where it's one or the other, something almost none of the other services I use 2fa with seem to restrict.
I'm giving Bitwarden a try as Lastpass drops the ball on Firefox support.
It's very clean, and quick. Parts of the interface are clunky (when you edit/save a new login, the giant green bar indicating that YAY YOU SAVED covers up ALL the useful buttons in the interface and doesn't time out nearly quickly enough, forcing you to click the X even to perform a simple task that shouldn't involve the notification.)
It's not quite as good at detecting login pages and offering to save logins as Lastpass. If you ever need to toggle away to, let's say, copy a Authenticator code the extension completely closes and you have to re-type everything, even if you were in the middle of adding a new login. So even if you're only half-done, make sure to save even if your new entry is incomplete.
It seems to especially fail to capture new logins if you have two-factor authentication enabled for your accounts (which really, you should, right?)
It would be nice to create a folder/category for your login in the very same screen that you create a new login. It's clunky to create a login, then toggle over to settings, create a folder, then toggle back over to your vault, and finally assign the login a folder.
The extensions don't sync automatically, or don't sync very often. Which means changes in your vault or in another browser don't sync until you manually click a button. That's an extra step that seems unnecessary.
That said, I went ahead and paid for Premium even if I don't plan on switching away from Lastpass. It seems like there's a lot of room to focus on exactly what used to make Lastpass great, before it started to get bogged down in sluggish UI and doubled in price without any real increase to functionality. - Rated 5 out of 5by Heymatt, 7 years agoI switched from lastpass to bitwarden, why you ask? Lastpass is proprietary and closed where as bitwarden is open source and transparent. Also it turns out, bitwarden is cleaner and more simple to use. Easy decision.
- Rated 5 out of 5by grzzzly, 7 years agoIt's open source and does what it needs to do without the bells and whistles.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13291148, 7 years agoMoving from lastpass to bitwarden was easier than i expected. The extension is smooth, easy to navigate. Does what it promises. Well done.
