LastPass vs NordPass

LastPass

• People who only need their passwords on one type of device and want a free plan
• Households of up to six who each want a private vault
• Small and mid-sized businesses that want SSO and MFA alongside password management

NordPass

• People who want breach monitoring and email masking built into a password manager
• Users who need native apps on desktop and mobile, including Linux
• Anyone who wants to start on a free plan before paying

LastPass

• The Free plan works on one device type, computer or mobile but not both, and comes with self-service support only.
• Paid plans are priced per month but billed annually; the pricing page shows no monthly billing option.
• Teams is capped at 50 users, and single sign-on is limited to 3 apps on Business; unlimited SSO apps need Business Max.
• On Linux the download page offers browser extensions only; the desktop app installers are for Windows and macOS.

NordPass

• File attachments are a Premium feature.
• A third-party review reports that the free plan does not include weak-password detection or breach scanning.
• The in-app 1-month plan costs $4.99, well above the monthly equivalent of the 12-month plans listed at $31.99 to $35.99.

LastPass

Password vault and autofill

Stores an unlimited number of passwords, notes and payment cards in an encrypted vault and fills saved logins and forms for you. A generator creates new passwords.

Passkeys

Creates, stores and manages passkeys alongside passwords through the browser extension or mobile app, and syncs them across devices and browsers.

Sharing and emergency access

Premium and Families share items with several people and can grant a trusted person emergency access. The Free plan shares one password with one person at a time.

Security dashboard and dark web monitoring

Flags weak, reused and old passwords and alerts you if your information turns up in a breach database. The pricing page lists both in every plan.

Admin console and security policies

Business plans add an admin console, shared folders and security policies: 25 on Teams and more than 100 on Business and Business Max, which also add groups.

SSO, MFA and SaaS monitoring

Business includes single sign-on for 3 apps. Business Max adds unlimited SSO apps, advanced MFA and discovery of the SaaS apps and AI tools employees use.

NordPass

Autofill and autosave

Saves logins as you create them and fills them in with a click. Credit cards and personal information can be stored and filled the same way.

Passkeys

Stores passkeys alongside passwords so they can be used across your devices.

Password Health

Checks the vault and points out weak passwords that should be changed.

Data Breach Scanner

Monitors for data breaches and alerts you when your information turns up in one.

Email masking

Creates masked email addresses to give out in place of your real one.

Zero-knowledge encryption
