Replacements
Listings that take over the same core job as Proton Pass.
Bitwarden
An open-source password manager with free cross-device sync, apps for every platform and optional paid plans.
Bitwarden is open source with a free tier covering unlimited devices and passkeys, can be self-hosted, and does not require a Proton account.
1Password
Subscription password manager for individuals and families that stores, fills and shares passwords and passkeys.
1Password is a paid, closed-source manager with Watchtower breach alerts, passkey storage, per-item sharing permissions and a command-line tool, without the Proton account requirement.
NordPass
Password manager with passkey support from the makers of NordVPN.
NordPass offers passkey storage on every major platform with a freemium model, but its free tier allows only one active device at a time.
Keeper
Zero-knowledge password manager for individuals and enterprises.
Keeper is a paid, closed-source zero-knowledge manager with apps on every platform that extends into enterprise secrets and privileged access management.
Dashlane
Cloud password manager with autofill, dark web monitoring and a VPN.
Dashlane adds dark web monitoring and a VPN, but runs through the browser and mobile apps with no standalone desktop application.
Enpass
Offline-first password manager that syncs through your own cloud storage.
Enpass keeps the vault in cloud storage you choose, with a one-time purchase option, but sharing and recovery are weaker without a vendor-held vault.
RoboForm
Long-running password manager with unusually strong form filling.
RoboForm adds stronger form filling from stored identities across every platform, but syncing across devices requires its paid plan.
LastPass
Veteran cloud password manager, notable for its 2022 vault breach.
LastPass offers mature autofill and sharing with a freemium plan, but its customer vault backups were exfiltrated in 2022 and the free tier covers one device type.
