"Not like Norton Identity Safe"
Version: LastPass Password Manager 1.90
Pros
Annually cheap at any price (Pro version)
Cons
Changing the listing of logins/sites (if their are many) in the drop-down menu is NOT user-0changeable; like alphabetic forward/revers, by date of last or first use, etc. Needs to fixed, and hasnt for years.
Summary
"This key aspect of LastPass, the cloud-based storage, is then followed by an option to remove all your locally stored passwords. This prevents them from being compromised after you've begun using LastPass, although it also means that you will be tied to LastPass from that point. You can always export your passwords later, although after using the add-on for more than a year we've had no problems."
No. Lastpass is asking if you want to delete the OLD Username/passwords IT HAS JUST IMPORTED FROM OTHER BROWSERS. Lastpass is NOT asking if you want to delete YOUR local copy of LASTPASS's just-now encrypted passwords, ONLY the ones it IMPORTED, like from SeaMonkey or FireFox or whatever.
Got Tools/Security Check - this gives you a VERY easy way to find and re-manage duplicates. I have over 1000 sites managed, and the check took 20 seconds - and I have some work to do! -
"Is this safe?"
Version: LastPass Password Manager 1.90
Pros
I use Roboform and decided to use lastpass free version to see what it has to offer. I like the password wallet app and i also like two step authentication, which RF does not have.
Cons
I don't like the fact that I can request to reset my master password. If someone hacks in my email they can get my lastpass info sent to my email address and reset my master password and have access to all of my information that easily!
Summary
Id rather stick with a password manager that doesnt know your master password because the fact that it can be reset makes me uneasy and i dont know if i can sleep at night with all my bank info and logins being that easy to access.

"Best PW manager yet."
Version: LastPass Password Manager 1.90
Pros
1. Same password manager for all my devices (PC's and smartphone)and 3 different browsers.
2. Autofill works well.
3. I only have to enter the information once for all password-dependent applications.Cons
I just added the smartphone app and it works differently and I haven't been able to figure it out. I don't use it that much on my smartphone that much but I can see that it would be very handy if you are using a computer not on your personal computers which eliminates the need for a flash drive which is also a security issue.
Summary
In the past, I've used Password Corral and Password Safe. Password Corral was the first password manager I'd used. Before that, like most SysAdmins used a little memo pad to manually keep track of passwords. I use Windows mostly now - Solaris & Linux in the past so there are alot of choices. While Windows itself can manage passwords as well, we all know how secure that is!!
Password Safe is the one that I've used the most but the biggest irritant with that is when you use more than 1 PC, you have to keep a separate Password Safe on each PC which is a pain if you want to sync it. -
"Works just as described"
Version: LastPass Password Manager 1.90
Pros
Keeps track of passwords with some flexibility with what to keep and what not to keep, as well as being very unobtrusive with a small footprint.
Cons
if you're looking for a password vault that displays your passwords and lets you edit and such like a database, then this is not what you're going to need.

"The Best Password Manager Out There!!!"
Version: LastPass Password Manager 1.90
Pros
Using only one password to access all others.
Generating secure passwords for you.
Great support from the LastPass team.Cons
Absoultely NONE
Summary
I have used this program going on two years and I really love it. I hate having to come up with new passwords for everything I do online. With LastPass Password Manager I don't ever have to worry about that again. I can make the passwords as strong as needed with the advanced feature. Also when you have a website remembered with the program it logs you in automatically. How much better can it get??
Overall, I would recommend this program to anyone that needs that extra security from remembering strong password... -
"Not too easy to use"
Version: LastPass Password Manager 1.90
Pros
Obviously, you can hide your login ID and passwords.
Cons
Not easy to use. I am still trying to figure it out.
Summary
Better than going naked, I suppose.

"Excellent Program!!"
Version: LastPass Password Manager 1.90
Pros
LastPass is much better then Roboform! For one, they are not greedy like Roboform. Second, LastPass recognizes more forms to fill than Roboform. LastPass has worked flawless since I first downloaded it, and it's the free version!
Cons
The only con that I can see is that it stores your passwords online. To me, that seems kind of risky, but that just me. I guess it's a risk either way, rather it's stored online or on your computer where a hacker might get in or even a keylogger.
Summary
I works great! It's free! Most importantly, it's very secure!! I highly recommend this program!!!
