    I can’t comment on 1password but Bitwarden has a free version.

    KeePass is also a very good password manager but isn’t stored online. It’s a standalone application. I used KeePass for years but switched to Bitwarden last year for my online passwords.

      You can sync KeePass files automatically between devices using plugins. Takes time to set up at first but afterwards you have the best of both worlds completely for free.

        I used to sync using triggers over OneDrive. A while ago now, but they updated the application to handle synchronisation better and it’s pretty much baked in. KeePassXC is even better in that it can reload your database the second it detects changes.

        I really do like KeePass, it features one thing many other (any?) applications don’t offer and that’s auto-typing your credentials into applications. For this reason alone I still use KeePass heavily at my workplace.
