It’s also free.Īfter delving into Bitwarden I was happy to see that one could roll your own hosted Bitwarden deployment. Bitwarden is an open source project that allows password management across both mobile and desktop apps as well as its native web interface and includes baked in file-syncing.
It was at this point that I began looking for open source alternatives and came across Bitwarden.
#Keepass vs bitwarden software#
I began looking into KeePass to see if any native file syncing capabilities had emerged via updates to the software since having last looked but, alas, nothing had crossed my search. I had hoped that KeePass would be able to sync itself without relying on third party options. As I was working on my Dropbox replacement I began scrutinizing the files I kept in my sync folder I wanted to minimize the files I had added over time to my now bloated sync process and KeePass seemed like a good candidate for remove from sync. In order to keep my KeePass database in sync between by devices (KeePass has no native syncing mechanisms) I had leaned on my Dropbox service (as so many do) and this had worked pretty well until I began working on a project to replace Dropbox with another open source product which I now use to keep my files in sync across devices (something I’ll write about in a later article).
This FOSS password manager app has been a great tool in my arsenal of go-to software across my desktop and mobile devices over the decades and has served me well.
