Keeps My Family in Sync - Great
Update: Still going strong and my kids have starting taking password management more seriously. Really happy with this application. Easy to use; simple interface; functional not flashy; it just works.
I have actually gotten more extensive use out of it that the friend that originally recomended it. I have it installed on my macbook; iMac, my iphone and my wifes iphone. I link the them through a shared drop box safe/file/folder; its really worked great. I’ve migrated away from the horrible printed sheet of paper when is terrible security & sometimes is hard to find where the last person left it (doesn’t everyone put it on the refrigerator?).
If you don’t have a password manager; then you should get one and I have been very happy with pwSafe.
Although they have not always given me the answer i hoped for, technical support has been always been responsive to my questions.
A feature, as I see it, people should know about and consider is the ability to print out a hard copy of the entire safe. You wouldn’t want to leave it laying around; BUT I do periodically print one off and put it in my bank lock box with other important documents (like my will). I suppose I could just leave a copy of my safe & its PW around but it kinda cuts to the chase if anything ever happened to me or my wife (morbid I know; but “be prepared”).
The only issue I have experienced is when I opened it on multiple machines simultaneously and there are save conflicts when the separate running machines save the file. It happens infrequently and most of the time the program even resolves it. I would expect the same, and have experienced it, with other programs too so it’s not really a flaw just a fact of life.
