Zoho Vault

Unlimited free vault for individuals

Password sharing with permissions

Paid plans share passwords with individuals and groups at several permission levels, and can share once with third parties outside the organization.

Passkeys and passwordless unlock

Stores passkeys alongside passwords, and the vault itself can be unlocked with Zoho OneAuth, Windows Hello, Touch ID, a passkey or a YubiKey.

Admin controls and audit trails

Admins assign roles, transfer password ownership, enforce password policies and review audit trails of password access, user activity and admin actions.

Access control workflow

Enterprise adds a request-release workflow in which access to critical shared passwords needs admin approval and can be limited in time.
