ZDNet: LogMeIn sells to private equity firms for $4.3 billion

 

And now you will be able to receive a free backdoor version of LogMeIn with very new LastPass installation or update.

 

Time to explore other options.

 

Bitwarden.

 

That was actually the first option I was going to investigate. I assume you use it? Windows and Android? That would be my plans for it.

 

Looking into LastPass alternatives myself, going to check out Bitwarden.

 

Yes sir. Use it on Android, iOS, and Windows. No issues.

 

I think when LastPass was acquired by LogMeIn was more of an issue, but would like to look at BitWarden.

 

Played with Bitwarden for a bit tonight, find Lastpass is way more user friendly.

 

OK, interesting to know. I find they all take a bit of getting used to.

I actually use Roboform, habit, since way back, with LastPass as a backup ( yes, I know that doubles my security exposure ).

 

Migrated from LastPass to Bitwarden last month without any issues. It's just as effective (and cheaper) but, a bit like a new car, you need to find the controls!
