Bitwarden

Bitwarden is an open-source password manager that has rapidly gained popularity as a transparent, affordable, and highly secure alternative to proprietary password managers. Founded in 2016, Bitwarden published its source code publicly, allowing independent security researchers to audit it — a major trust advantage over closed-source competitors. The platform stores encrypted passwords, notes, credit cards, and identities in a secure vault that syncs across all devices. Bitwarden supports autofill in all major browsers, mobile apps for iOS and Android, and desktop apps for Windows, Mac, and Linux. End-to-end encryption means only you can decrypt your data — Bitwarden never has access to your master password or vault contents. A unique feature is the ability to self-host Bitwarden on your own server for maximum privacy and control. The free tier is exceptionally generous, offering unlimited passwords on unlimited devices — something most competitors charge for. Premium is just $10/year, making it the most affordable paid password manager. Organizations can also use Bitwarden Teams ($4/user/month) or Enterprise ($6/user/month).
