Version: Password Manager XP 2.2.370
"Great App. Great Password Management system"
Pros: Works well with IE and FIrefox. Works great with multiple users and concurrent access. No problems with form filling or in creating custom record templates. New version allows you to encrypt files along with a record. Very secure. Install to removeable device function works great, i can take my password database with me anywhere and not worry about security. I have close to 500 passwords and the program still works great. Also works great in a windows server enviroment since you can customize the permissions using NT authentication. The ability to customize fields and tabs is an awesome feature. You can also customize the password reports so that they print only certain fields in a certain order. Too many to list here!
Cons: Price (but still worth it).

"Great App. Great Password Management system"
Pros: Can customize each record's fields. Can Customize keyboard shortcuts now. Can create custom printing templates. Never crashes, and I use it in multiuser mode constantly. We have multiple large DB's and never had any problems. The install to removeable device wizard allows you to carry your passwords with you without worrying about security. The app will run right off your thumbdrive, encryption and all. Great log file of password changes each user has made, also encrypted. Has easy to use backup and restore functions as well.
Cons: Waiting for the ability to encrypt files with a password record. None.

Version: Password Manager XP 2.0 build 274
"This is the way software is suppose to work!"
Pros: I spent a few hours reading and running free trials from Download.com. This program uses Blowfish, 3DES, Rijndael, Tea, Cast128, RC4, Serpent, Twofish at the same time and can generate passwords of 999 characters. The everyday operation is easy to use and easy to pickup. When I exported the entire program and files to one floppy disk, I was sold. That was V-1.0. V-2 is even easier to use, faster to operate and the same great customer service as before. You get personal responses within a day. The programmer has a gift! The software produces no comflicts, have very little overhead, and it's commercial free! This was written by a programmer that understands minimal keystrokes.
Cons: This is really a positive, but you better grasp it: There is no backdoor. If you don't understand, read up. Isn't that what security is all about?

Version: Password Manager XP 2.2.370
"Over 300 passwords, thank you for PW Manager"
Pros: 1) multiple databases
2) Very very secure
3) easy to backup and restore a database
4) very powerful program, yet still easy to use.
5) Works with ie and firefox
I've been using this product for years with hundreds of passwords. It saves lots of time because you won't be forgetting your passwords and having to use the recovery feature on websites
Cons: 1) doesn't work with opera but who uses that anyway
2) Only fills out user names and passwords, doesn't do entire forms.

Version: Password Manager XP 2.1.296
"well-designed and very stable"
Pros: Supports multiple databases and users; excellent for IT environment where employees must share access to certain critical passwords. Multiple encryption mechanisms. Database backup and restore that really works! Have seen none of the stability problems reported by other users (running here on Windows XP).
Cons: Would prefer to have more control over keyboard shortcuts and click actions for common copy and paste operations. Would like to PKI integration to eliminate need for common shared database encryption key.
