“The ultimate password manager”

by Nick Mead about 1Password

Keychain on Mac does a pretty good job of managing passwords but once you've tried 1Password you'll probably never look back.

If you're tired of making up passwords to access sites or worried that your passwords are not secure enough, it really is invaluable. 1Password creates strong, unique passwords for you, then remembers and restores them all within your web browser. At first glance, you may be concerned by the potential security risks of having one program manage all your passwords, but the number of users that rely and praise this program illustrates that you have little to worry about.

Using 1Password is very simple. On startup you have to configure one master password, which should be as tough as possible. After that, 1Password detects when you are visiting sites that require passwords and stores them automatically. You can set up time locks so that your Mac is protected while you're away from it and even synchronize it with your iPhone, .Mac account and Palm devices, although it doesn't work with other mobile phones. If you encounter any problems, the developer is also widely praised for their swift response time although I had problems accessing some of their online tutorials.

1Password is a powerful and effective application to manage all your passwords from one place. Highly recommended to protect your identity on the web.

Pros
  • Very easy to setup
  • Works with most applications and browsers
  • Creates safe and strong passwords
  • Create multiple identities
  • Good support from developer
Cons
  • Mobile support limited to Palm and iPhone
