I use it daily for managing my password as well as licenses for some software.It works very well, it synchronizes almost in real-time and has a great browser add-on.
Pros
Strong security and good synchronization feature.The add-on for Chrome and Edge works nicely.
Cons
Lacking premium features and big concern about losing the main password (impossible to access without it).

Overall, very happy with Bitwarden as a product and have always received great support from them.
Pros
The availability on virtually every platform is very welcome. The ability to configure many things is useful.
Cons
The interface has never been given much love, and has never really changed. It's very utilitarian, and not always intuitive. I think it could be friendlier.

Bitwarden short term user review

Overall i am happy i found it. Helped to manage my passwords along many devices.
Pros
The best thing for me was to have all my passwords at one place. Don't need to remember or recover them.
Cons
There are some drawbacks. When i log in in the new device, i always have to chose region. It is not bolded or clearly visible, so when entering password often get message "bad password". But it is because i try to log in to a wrong region account. It could be clearer. And the thing with Fitek system i mentioned before.

Overall it's a good experience with Bitwarden that makes life easier (at least mine). It's nice to have a place with all your passwords (& potentially other secure notes) that you can access from anywhere and that still feels safe.
Pros
The Chrome Extension that makes it super easy & fast to use when usin gthe Web via Google Chrome.
Cons
The occasional issues with the Chrome Extension, when it becomes impossible to login (= unlock the vault) even though you're using the right password that still works with the main vault

For the most part, I like Bitwarden. Despite some of it's shortcomings, it is a powerful password manager, and with the ability to self-host your passwords provides a great level of security.
Pros
Bitwarden is a powerful and flexible password manager, with the ability to not just store basic password, but also one-time (two factor) passwords, non-password items (such as credit cards, identification documents, and memberships), and secure notes. Bitwarden has browser extensions for all of the big browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) that work extremely well allowing you to not only automatically enter passwords on websites, but to automatically generate passwords and store them directly in Bitwarden. Furthermore, Bitwarden offers both a free tier, with a lesser feature set (specifically in not allowing the storage of one-time passwords) as well as an extremely inexpensive subscription tier ($10/year). Finally, by default, all of your passwords are stored in the Bitwarden cloud with easy to setup synchronization between your devices; however if you are uncomfortable storing all of your passwords in the cloud, Bitwarden offers a powerful self-hosting option (albeit it is difficult to setup).
Cons
The user interface is functional, but clunky. Being fully cross-platform, it has non-native look and feel regardless of the platform you are using. In addition, while it is great that their is a free tier, if you use two-factor authentication for your accounts that support it (which you absolutely should do!), the free tier is far less useful as it does not support two-factor one-time passwords. Finally, the self-hosting option is fantastic, but is relatively difficult to setup (especially for the non-tech savvy users). Self-hosting requires you to have your own domain name, an always on computer, and an understanding of Docker. Bitwarden provides a decent tutorial on how to set all of this up, but it is not for the faint of heart
Reasons for Choosing Bitwarden
1Password is a fantastic password manager, but it's owner, AgileBits, has made some extremely questionable, frustrating, and user-hostile decisions over the past couple months. As such, I am actively looking into migrating to a new password manager - Bitwarden being one possible option.Switched From
1PasswordReasons for Switching to Bitwarden
iCloud Keychain is an attractive alternative if you are all in on the Apple ecosystem, but lacks some power features found in alternatives. Minimalist Password Manager has a very attractive interface, a good road map, and very responsive developer - but is macOS/iOS only. LastPass can be expensive, no native app, and a clunky interface. Keeper is downright expensive and just simply not great.- Industry: Computer Software

I have been using Bitwarden for almost two years and it is close to perfect. The app runs smoothly and seamlessly on both smartphones and desktops. It is supported on a variety of browsers, ranging from the more well-known ones like Chrome and Safari to the less-known ones like Brave and Vivaldi. According to the user's needs, it can be used from the desktop app, mobile app, browser extension, or even from the command line. Quite a few features, such as unlimited passwords or multi-factor authentication, are included in the free version. The paid one contains more extensive functionalities, at a reasonable price. Because Bitwarden is a well-known software, it has a large community across the internet and great customer support. Also, the developers keep in close contact with users.
The only problems I found are the autosave function, which could be improved. Additionally, the creation of a 'share' button could make the app even more user-friendly, as now you have to manually copy and paste items to share them outside the app.
All in all, I think Bitwarden is a great piece of software that not only improves personal security, but also makes everyday life easier. Definitely worth considering, especially if you don't have a password manager.
Pros
The number of features.
Seamless and smooth running.
Vast community and developer support.
Free private version/reasonable enterprise price.
Cross-device and cross-browser support.
Cons
Autosave sometimes doesn't recognize passwords.
No easy items sharing outside the app.

Password encryption - end 2 end encryption of passwords so they cannot be stolen from Bitwarden servers.
Shared collections for team secrets - document passwords, server access, etc.

Does all that I need it to do and more, I will definitely be using if for years to come.
Pros
- Simple, intuitive, easy to use software that has a great security reputation (open source!) so you can sleep well at night knowing your passwords are safe
- Wide compatibility between iOS, Mac, Android, Windows, different browsers etc meaning you can easily access your passwords anywhere
- Supports biometrics meaning you can quickly log in and access your passwords
- Extra features like secured notes, password generator, autofill etc which are all added value in a free software
- Small annual fee to support developers will also grant you extra features, but these are just extras and not necessary
Cons
- Password generation could be more smooth so that it autofills, instead of having to copy the generated password and then after x amount of seconds the clipboard clears due to security measures and then you've lost your newly generated password. I would prefer it autofilling the newly generated password
- On Android app, be able to select passwords directly in the field instead of having to enter the vault and select them there, fewer steps would make it even quicker

Easy to use and very less subscription fee. Free users are able to sync across multiple platforms and don't have restrictions on device limitations. High value of money.
Pros
Bitwarden is a highly reliable encrypted password manager. Its organization function allows you to share specific passwords across your team members, which extended team collaboration. The Premium version also supports embedded 2FA, so it helps you to log into any 2FA enables sites even faster.
Cons
Autosave password on browsers is not as smart as Lastpass.

Sharing and self-hosting, at a winning price point

After using Keepass for years, the need to share customer credentials in case of the "hit-by-a-bus" scenario led me to search for a solution. Bitwarden had the self-host and open source features I sought. Have been running a BW server in Docker for over a year, and most of my customers now have read-only access to their subset of my password database.
Pros
Bitwarden has been audited for code security. The pricing model is very fair and affordable by almost anyone. And you can self-host if you have the need to keep all your data internal. Passwords can be organized into folders, and shared as collections with privileges set by user. You can store credit cards as well. It has an extension or app for every major platform, and auto-fills logins on web pages and in phone apps. It also supports 2FA.
Cons
Setting up users to share collections is a little complicated. It could use a little work on user management - admin should be able to reset user passwords.
Reasons for Switching to Bitwarden
BW has a third-party version written in Rust, that can be set up in a docker container easily. Self-hosting that image for privacy, and the collection sharing met my needs.- Industry: Retail

Haven't had any required. Program runs on autopilot. Click when I need it, runs flawless every time.
Pros
Easy to operate, solid peace of mind. Not really for business, this home use program generates and saves long, randomly generated passwords. Ones that theoretically would take millions of years to hack. Just one less point of attack I can defend, for cheap. This program does the job well, just a single click to enter a very safe, unique password on a website. Simple and intuitive methods to control password requirements, access and lockout settings, and online vault storage.
Cons
The directions can leave you confused. New password generation could be easier.

It's awesome. Never had any issue at all. Never had to worry about the software breaking on any of my platform. This software is well designed and engineered.

I like how easy it is to set up. You just have to signup and install the software to begin using it. Works with all platforms like Windows, MacOs, Browser, iOS, Android, Linux, etc. Browser extension available. The UI is very clean and easy to navigate.
