Dashlane

I Love Dashlane,it does everything I want it to BUT it has changed from the product I originally order, i.e. a Mac app that I could keep open any time I wanted it. The developers then, without a "by your leave" trashed the app idea and forced users to use the app as a browser extension. Not only that but only on the browsers that they dictated. so users of other browsers can't install the extension either. Now the app is about to be killed. So for me I feel that what I originally purchased is not what I currently have. I have the app on my iPhone which helps but I still feel cheated because I can't have my Mac app back. I will continue to use my cobbled product but am actively looking for an "as good as" app. Shame Dashlane. Listen to your customers.

Does Dashlane allow entry of the master password with touch id?

Its good but the instructions for use don't always work for some essential albeit rare functions (like updating the master password after I was Phished for security reasons). If it allowed me to enter addresses as well (so it doubles as an address book where I could store everything) it would be perfect.

Works fine for me although I still use Contacts as well, it does things Dashlane doesn't. I need something that combines both of them.

They advertise that it is so easy to use. But I can’t figure it out and there’s no customer service. Just frustrated.

Does anybody know how to "Follow" an app like in the old system?

No thanks. . .crappy customer service made me consider other alternatives. I found that BitWarden is faster, simple to set up AND can import "vaults" from apps like 1Password.

I finally moved from 1Password to Dashlane after I got tired of the problems of the former with each upgrade. The change was much smoother than I had anticipated and I was set in a couple of hours. There is room for improvement - the site icons are way too big and thus making the list and gallery view inefficient but these are minor quibbles. The password insertion is much better than with 1Password and the price for unlimited devices per person at currentl4 $40 a year for premium is much more reasonable than 1Password. And most important: no problems with the Safari 13 upgrade.

The first time I ran Dashlane after installing it, it would not work. It just kept alerting me to fill in my name and birthdate, and then, the procedure repeated itself until infinity.

Not related, but I have to comment on the new MU format. It is BAD. what was wrong with the previous forum format??? It was compact, easy on the eye, inviting.. This current style is toooo spread, hard to concentrate, and I'll think twice before every visit. I have a shop on Etsy, they also did this ugly thing with the forums. Most people are extremely not happy with that, and stopped coming all together.

Very happy with this app. Easy to use, works like charm.

Why People want to give their Login/Password Information to others when they can save with Stickies, Text edit, or any other Text, RTF, or Doc on their Computer, Smart Phone or Tablets? Are People turning Caveman that without thinking use this kind of app.

I recently had problems with registration, wrote to the support service and had not received an answer for two weeks already ... How do you think you should trust them?

a great app for someone that has had brain surgery like me & can't remember very many thing anyway...

"Free?" Please. The crippleware (or "dumb down" if you prefer) version is "free." It stores "up to 50 passwords." Dear friends, if all you have to manage is 50 passwords, a password manager is way overkill. Keychain Access, the password storage function in your browser, or even an Excel spreadsheet should be more than sufficient. For everyone else, the "Free" Dashlane is just a deceptive come-on, because you'll need, at minimum, the "Premium" version for which you'll pay an annual fee. As someone below noted, the price for the "Premium" version is pretty much in line with 1Password's. Why MacUpdate lets companies indulge in such deceitful advertising is beyond me. And the reviews: which version, "Free," "Premium," or "Premium Plus," do the Dashlane reviews pertain to? Surely no one could give a 5-star review to a password manager that manages a max of 50 passwords. Such a review is worthless. Of course, this isn't limited to Dashlane. MacUpdate allows vendors to post the price of the least expensive alternatives of their software. And the reviewers don't need to specify which version their comments apply to. Also, I am more than willing to pay for software. I don't expect quality software to be free, or that someone else's hard work should be uncompensated. But please be honest about the real costs and let the buyer decide.

Fastest, easiest to use, completely secure (I forgot the master password & had to reinstall & re-input all my data, no way to hack it) & really friendly, my wife can use it, and she is a luddite as far as computers are concerned.

After using for about a week, I can say I am very happy with the program and the way it works automatically filling in passwords. Works much better and easier than 1Password which I used for many years.

A once-terrific password management program has become terribly buggy as of v6.x. The ability to login in at startup using the Touch Bar has been rendered useless. The requirement to sync the browser extension with the app doesn't work most of the time. Leaving a comment on the website results in a "we'll get back to you" auto-response and nothing more. Like @Edeerly, I've been a -paying- customer for years, so this latest development is disheartening. C'mon, Dashlane, stop succumbing to "feature creep" and get back to a solid, secure password manager!

Works well for me, storing my important information on a variety of platforms.

Since 1Password moved to a subscription basis I've been looking for an alternative. This gets 5 stars in all the magazine reviews (although PC UK disclaimed they were paid to advertise for Dashlane) This program is definitely not "The One" for me. First, it does NOT work with Microsoft Edge. They want you to switch back to Internet Explorer (which is not even supported by Microsoft any longer). 1Password is not perfect syncing with Edge, but at least it usually works and is supported. Second any atypical login screen stumps it. And if it THINKS it can log in it will submit again and again when you you go to the login screen, ultimately locking you out of your account. I have many web sites that have a button to click saying you agree with their terms - sorry, Dashlane can't help you on these. Does your login require an access, then a verify key? Sorry, can't do that either. If you type it manually is saves it, but now you have 2 logins with the same domain name and it has no clue which to use (usually guesses wrong) the next time you try to login. Now I am locked out of another account. The automatic password change feature is nice, but out of 335 passwords I have it only found 6 that were supported by that feature. 2 factor login is the "newest thing", but it's a royal pain to have to pull up your phone, the code app, type the code in your computer. Then I was thinking this makes it harder for me, and someone hacking into my account (unless they also stole my. phone), but the master password I selected was 8 characters with numbers and symbols - not really secure for anyone who broke into the Dashlane server and tried to hack my account using brute force. 1Password has a complex key and a master password. Nobody knows my complex key, but it's stored on my password secured devices. Even if people broke into 1Password and told date, then used brute force to break my master password they could NEVER guess my 16 digit complex key too. That and it's a lot easier to use on my computer, iPhone, etc. 1Password lets me click an "I accept" button without getting confused about how to fill in the password. If something has an access and a verify code I save it at normal password, and call the next screen something like "verify code" which 1Password then keeps track of for me.
