Overall Satisfaction with Dashlane Password Manager

We use a corporate virtual credit card company and securely store/share credit card info as needed via the Payments section of Dashlane. We've also migrated all of our 2FA codes into Dashlane, significantly reducing support requests when a user needs to log into a platform with 2FA. We also use Secure Notes and the Password Generator, all through Chrome extensions, to keep us in Chrome working and not hopping from app to app or device to device.

Pros

  • Chrome Extension.
  • Password Generator.
  • Secure Notes.

Cons

  • I wish it would keep us logged in longer.
  • I wish it would display the password pop-up selector only in one place (either at the password field or in the Chrome extension area), not both.
  • It's VERY frustrating when you generate a password, and some apps don't recognize the app/password generated, but it says it saved it. Still, either doesn't save it at all, or the app saves it under the third-party provider name, not the site name (the only example I can think of off the top of my head is not something I noticed with Dashlane but with Apple Keychain was signing up for an account with Zaxby's app on iPhone and it saved the password for "NextLevel.com" or something and I couldn't find my login for the longest time.
  • The biggest win for us has been the time and energy saved by users' being able to retrieve their own 2FA codes.
  • The ability to wean users from insecure passwords and take advantage of the effortless password generation feature is excellent.
Have used LastPass and 1Password, as well as iCloud Keychain (now Passwords in iOS 18). LastPass is terrible; the interface/experience is bad overall. 1Password is much better than LastPass but is too robust, and the Apple Keychain/Passwords App is a little too simple. I'm a former Apple and a fanboy, so if and when they improve the Passwords app and bring in the stored payments/secured notes and password generator into the app itself, it'll be the app to beat for Dashlane for me. For my enterprise usage, though, Dashlane is the clear winner.

Do you think Dashlane Password Manager delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Dashlane Password Manager's feature set?

Yes

Did Dashlane Password Manager live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Dashlane Password Manager go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Dashlane Password Manager again?

Yes

I've pretty much explained it all but it's just very convenient and intuitive. The initial setup process is a bit overwhelming, even for an IT pro and I hate when apps have the "Get Started" steps that they so desperately want you to complete and click through, but if you have done all the steps on your own outside of that workflow, those suggestions typically never go away.
