Dashlane Password Manager for PC and Mac

Software Reviews and Criticism

• By AltaDoc

  Excellent Product with Fine Customer Support

  I have used Dashlane for several years and have been a Premium member for the last couple of years. I use Dashlane on desktop and iOS devices. For desktop devices, I use both the app and the web to access content. I have also used the product with 2-factor authentication using 2FA software and a Yubico key. Dashlane works very well. I love its integration into major browsers and feel that it is much more secure than Microsoft keychain, for example (perception if not reality). Other great built-in capabilities include “password changer” and “password generator” to help keep your identity secure. Also use the built-in VPN solution frequently, especially when using public Wifi. Opportunity for improvement includes stronger integration of automatic secondary logon in browsers, which Dashlane says they’re working on. I have also been really pleased with customer support. Just migrated from an old to new Pc and the Dashlane app didn’t migrate correctly. Customer service responded immediately upon receipt and had the problem solved for me within two quick email cycles. This service level is promised for Premium members and it is delivered. Can highly recommend Dashlane. Everyone should secure their online identities and other critical identifiable information. Dashlane works, is easy to use, works and synchronizes on all your platforms, and the company meets their brand promises.

  Dashlane is Password Manager available — currently

  I check periodically, and I continue to find Dashlane is the number one or number two password manager in different comparisons. But, when I consider the functions and features, the kind of rapid customer support I receive, and the cost—I use the Premium Family plan, giving me up to six licensed users—there is simply no comparison. Given the number of major hacks annually, and how often those user credentials end up for sale on the Dark Web, the days of keeping your passwords manageable—easily managed, all the same across web sites, have them easy to remember, and/or writing them on sticky notes or a notebook “hidden” near your computer—should be long behind you. Dashlane makes it so easy to keep you passwords unique for every site, and meeting all complexity requirements. They can be sync’d across all devices, logged in using biometrics, and randomly generated using Dashlane. In many websites, they can be automatically entered by the app/extension, without little or no interaction on your part. Especially on the iPhones using FaceID, I don’t have to do anything but look at my phone—amazing!! And sharing them with friends and family couldn’t be easier. I can recommend them highly enough. Best product available for several years now—nothing would make be changed.

  Makes me feel safer

  It’s not ideal to have random 10 character passwords, unique to each app or site, but after having two identity theft situations, I feel a lot safer. If there is a breach (like experian), the app tells you and which accounts were affected so you can immediately change your passwords. There’s also a feature that will update them all, but I don’t use that. Yes, google can save all your stuff, but I feel like google knows enough about me already. You make one safe password (don’t forget it, it’s possible to retrieve it but difficult, that’s the point) and that gives you access to all the others. You can log in to sites and apps via dashlane. On my computer, if the app is open it will auto fill. I also store credit card numbers, ss# of my parents, stuff like that. I’ve never used another password manager and for sure it is simpler to just save passwords on your phone or through a browser but this is an extra layer of protection. Everything is in one place and if you lose your phone or computer you can access everything through the web site. It even has an emergency contact so that if you get hit by a bus someone has access to all your stuff to pay your bills. Worth it to me. It’s $69/yr for premium and I use all the features but you can try it for free.

  I Would be LOST without this App!!

  This app is fantastic...have been using it for years and it only keeps getting better. I would be absolutely LOST without it. All recent breaches in security online and in stores did not matter to me for 2 reasons...1. My passwords were never saved on those sites and Dashlane has not been compromised (by the way - nice job, Dashlane!!) and 2. When I have needed to quickly change my passwords, I have used Dashlane's password generator and change my passwords quickly, efficiently and securely. I love that Dashlane can populate for me if I choose, but also can now store other types of sensitive information such as ID's you don't want to carry, payment methods and secure notes you need to make. Overall - again, I could not live without this app. One suggestion I would love to see in a future update...would be for accounts you no longer want to use...maybe the ability to use Dashlane to deactivate your account and help remove your data to unsubscribe from a site you are no longer interested in having an account with, so that sensitive information does not need to float about on the interweb :) Overall - GREAT job Dashlane!! I have already renewed my premium for 5 years...because this app and my online security are of utmost importance to me!! Thank you!!
