Which one is for you

Pick Keeper if

  • Fits if five people in a household each want their own vault, plus a shared folder for the Wi-Fi
  • Works for teams of 5 to 10 on Business Starter, at $2 a user a month billed yearly

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you never want to pay, as free means ten records on one phone with no syncing
  • Pricey if you're one person, at $42.99 a year against Bitwarden's $19.80
  • Not for you if you want to pay monthly, as the pricing pages only show yearly billing
  • Tight if you expect dark web alerts or file storage included, as both cost extra outside Family's 10 GB
  • Watch out: single sign-on and SCIM need Enterprise, the Windows app needs Windows 11, and reviewers had to ask support to cancel

Pick SecureSafe if

  • Fits if you want your data kept in Switzerland
  • Makes sense if a family or small team shares safes with per-user access

Look elsewhere if

  • Watch out: prices show in Swiss francs by default, so dollars need checking
  • Pricey if you also need files, because the Pass plans are per module and files mean a bundle
  • Tight if your team is under 5 or 6 users, since the team plans start there
  • Skip it if you want a desktop password app, as the desktop app is for files
  • Watch out: over 50 users goes through sales

How we grade them

2.8GPAKeeperGood2.2GPASecureSafeFair
Value for money
C$3.58 a month, billed yearly at $42.99, which is the upper half of this category's ordinary band, where the middle plan is $2.99 and Bitwarden Premium is $19.80 a year. Dark web alerts cost extra on top. The business plans start at $2 a user.
CPass Solo is CHF 2.40 a month, or CHF 21.60 billed yearly, which lands in the ordinary range. The page shows francs by default.
Free plan and trial
DTen records on one phone, with no desktop app and no syncing. That isn't a password manager, it's a taster, so the real offer here is the 30-day trial. Bitwarden, Proton Pass, Apple and Google all give you one for good.
C14-day trial on the self-serve plans. The listing states no card detail, and there is no free plan.
Features
BPasswords, passkeys, cards and files in one vault, two-factor codes filled in, One-Time Share for someone who isn't on Keeper, emergency access and a business admin console cover what the category expects. Nothing goes beyond the rivals, and BreachWatch is sold separately.
CPersonal and shared safes, a generator, 2FA and zero-knowledge design. Files are a separate module, so adding them means a bundle.
Ease of use
A4.9 from about 231,000 App Store ratings, the highest in this category. One reviewer came to it from a paper notebook of passwords. The one-star reviews are about billing and cancelling rather than learning it.
CNo store rating on record, and you build safes, sharing and extensions before it is useful.
Platforms and integrations
AWeb, Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone, Android and six browsers, with a command-line tool and business hooks into Entra ID, Okta, Duo, Slack and Jira. One catch: the Windows app needs Windows 11.
BWeb, Mac, Windows, iPhone, Android and a browser extension. The desktop app is for files, and no integrations list was found.

Key features

Keeper

Encrypted vault and autofill
Stores passwords, passkeys, payment cards and files, and KeeperFill enters logins and two-factor codes across apps and browsers. A generator creates passwords and passphrases.
Passkeys
Saves passkeys alongside passwords so they can be used from any device and operating system, and the browser extension manages them directly.
Sharing and One-Time Share
Share records and folders with set permissions, or send a time-limited One-Time Share link to someone who does not have a Keeper account.
Zero-knowledge encryption
Keeper says data is encrypted and decrypted on the user's device at the record level, so the company cannot access what is stored in a vault.
Paid add-ons
BreachWatch dark web monitoring, Secure File Storage and a Concierge support service are sold separately on top of the personal plans.
Admin console and provisioning
Business plans include an admin console, enforced policies, team management and a security audit. Enterprise adds SAML single sign-on, SCIM and Active Directory sync.

SecureSafe

Personal and shared safes
Each user gets a personal safe; team plans add a shared safe, and Business allows unlimited team safes.
Zero-knowledge design
The vendor says it does not hold the keys to decrypt content, so staff and third parties cannot read it.
Swiss hosting
The vendor says data is stored only in Switzerland, in certified data centers with triple-redundant storage.
Apps and extensions
Mobile apps for iOS and Android, extensions for Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox, and desktop apps for macOS and Windows.
Password generator and 2FA
Every Pass plan lists a password generator and two-factor authentication, with unlimited passwords.
File module bundles
Pass can be bundled with a file safe with secure sharing and document preview, priced separately from Pass.

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
