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 SplashID if
- Fits if you want a cheap manager with sync on every device
- Makes sense if you are moving over from SplashID Safe
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you keep more than 25 records, as the free plan stops there
- Watch out: sync, sharing and automatic backups all need Pro
- Watch out: the page does not state how much the yearly price saves against monthly
- Skip it if you want a Teams plan, as this listing covers only SplashID Pro 9
How we grade them
| 2.8GPAKeeperGood | 2.2GPASplashIDFair | |
|---|---|---|
| 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. | CPro is $29.99 a year, or $2.99 billed monthly, which is the category middle. |
| 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. | CFree is 25 records on a single installation with no sync, sharing or backups, and a person will hit that. |
| 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. | CRecords, extensions and sharing. Sync, sharing and automatic backups are Pro only. |
| 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 set up accounts and extensions first. |
| 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. | BiPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and browser extensions. No web app and no integrations list. |
| Best for | a private vault each for a family of five | a low-priced password app with a 25-record free plan |

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.
