ALTERNATIVES / DECISION BRIEF

When to replace 1Password

  • Review a replacement when the required primary job is a password and passkey vault with secure sharing, while an open-source foundation, self-hosting route, or lower paid entry matters.
  • Do not treat a broader identity platform as a password-manager substitute unless it also passes the team's vault, passkey, sharing, recovery, and developer-secret tests.

Keep 1Password when

Keep 1Password when its cross-platform experience, team credential controls, developer secrets, and security model are requirements the replacement must preserve.
