Bitwarden Self-Hosted Server

What do you like best about the product?

It’s well integrated in my workflow. Also, the browser plugin is very neat

What do you dislike about the product?

The search engine is awful. The API access is really cumbersome to use. Also, I hate that I can’t rename a collection without having all of its contents spread across the entire vault

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

It just works. It saves my passwords. What else should it do?

What do you like best about the product?

We can share sensitive information, such as passwords and security keys, in a secure and easy way.

What do you dislike about the product?

The auto-fill pop-up is kind of ugly and can be annoying at times, so I prefer to keep it disabled. When I need something, I just open the vault in the browser and enter it from there.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

At the company, we have many accounts for different clients that our internal team uses for testing. Before Bitwarden, we kept all the accounts and passwords in a shared spreadsheet, and it felt insecure. Now we store everything in the vault, which is a much more secure way to manage and keep passwords. We can also share other sensitive information, like API keys or .env files, using the "Send" feature.

What do you like best about the product?

The UX is simple and easy to understand. I also like the Google Chrome integration, which makes signing in to things super easy. In terms of performance, it’s reliable and works well. The price feels fair for what it provides. Bitwarden also offers many helpful support features.

What do you dislike about the product?

There's nothing I dislike about Bitwarden.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps keep all of my accounts safe with unique passwords or passkeys. It's so difficult to remember all of them, given I have so many accounts for things. So it does all of the hard work for me while keeping everything safe and secure.

What do you like best about the product?

I really appreciate the shared collection feature as it’s super helpful at work. For example, i have to deal with multiple client logins (portal) for various clients. What i did was create a “shared” folder where i could add these credentials and then everyone on my team could access these and log-in using their own account without me sending them passwords via text message. This makes it easy to remove someone who has quit. Plus, it automatically syncs with both my work computer and my phone and there is no additional charge for this syncing – unless you opt for premium and that costs around $10 per year.

What do you dislike about the product?

When i have two completely separate accounts for the exact same bank or email service provider, it will randomly choose to fill in the account i never use instead of the one i mostly use. Then i have to go back into the extension menu & manually cut-and-paste the correct account info. Also, when i’m just trying to enter a normal url into a website’s login form, the auto-fill popup always seems to appear exactly in front of what i’m entering and blocks my view of the url entry field, so it gets frustrating.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

In the past before we started using Bitwarden, i literally used a notebook next to my computer to store login information and also an Excel document. On top of that, i reused about 3-4 login/password combinations everywhere so i would receive those annoying “login attempt detected” emails constantly. With Bitwarden, i’ve enabled the password generator to generate extremely long/complex strings for each new website and i don’t have to remember any of it except for my main/master password.

What do you like best about the product?

The ability to quickly log into all of the needed services while remaining safe.

What do you dislike about the product?

Issues with logging in and some prior issues with automation, and some websites taking the time to attempt to sign in but then requiring me to still have to input the password and often delaying the process by getting stuck.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having worked at a bank it was useful to help maintain safety by allowing to still log into services securely while not having to have all information remain on the physical computer/drive.

What do you like best about the product?

I like how easy Bitwarden is to use and that I can access it on all my devices. It keeps my clients’ and personal passwords in a secure place, and it’s there whenever I need it on my phone, home laptop, and work computers. I use it throughout the day, every day, and I could not work without it. It works across my browsers, and I use the Windows desktop app, Android app, and browser plugins. Compared with LastPass, Bitwarden is a lot easier to use, more streamlined and faster, and easier to set up. I remember being really impressed by how easy the initial setup was.

What do you dislike about the product?

Sometimes I find the format/structure a little confusing. I’d like folders to be part of Bitwarden’s setup, or at least have the option to create them, so each client can have their own folder. Folders aren’t the default, and I can’t share just a folder with a staff member. They don’t have the same folder structure, so it’s harder for them to find things. Setting up the folders is a manual process, and I wish I could replicate them for my staff.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Bitwarden to keep client data and passwords accessible, and to keep my personal passwords too.

What do you like best about the product?

We use Bitwarden to securely store and sync passwords in the cloud as a team. We are particularly impressed by the differentiated permission levels. With the help of Nested Collections, we can also clearly map our complex permission structure within a single team. The integration with Microsoft Entra and the support for Single Sign-on (SSO) are further clear advantages for us. Thanks to the detailed documentation, the setup went smoothly. I find the new interface very user-friendly – especially for people without an IT background. It is also noteworthy how quickly Bitwarden recognizes input fields and automatically fills in login credentials. The security reports are also helpful: they clearly show which websites have insecure passwords stored and which login credentials may be affected by a data breach. In terms of price, Bitwarden is slightly above some other password managers. However, given the range of functions and the benefits for team collaboration, I consider the price justified.

What do you dislike about the product?

The only downside I currently see concerns the permissions in Nested Collections. When I create a new collection within a collection, it would be helpful if the permissions were adopted 1:1. An optional inheritance that I can activate with a button would be an advantage.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

With Bitwarden, our IT team can store and sync passwords in the cloud. Nested Collections neatly map our complicated permission structure within a team – something other password managers couldn't do. Entra/SSO and the permission structure were also reasons for our switch from KeePass.

What do you like best about the product?

The customer service is the best part. The updated UI and performance of the integrated AI is a real boon as well.

What do you dislike about the product?

I do not know much about the pricing so I do not have much to dislike.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

For us they are solving the problem of keeping our passwords secure and getting them off individual desktops.

What do you like best about the product?

I like having one secure place for our secrets, where the whole team can access them without us sharing them through WhatsApp, email, or Discord. Bitwarden has a good reputation for being secure, and to our knowledge it hasn’t been compromised. It’s affordable and really easy to use. Lots of our developers use it for their personal lives, so they know how it works, which makes onboarding smooth. It simplifies our workflow and removes the pain of managing secrets. The initial setup was very easy, and I’ve found support very responsive and helpful when we’ve had billing issues.

What do you dislike about the product?

The only issue I’ve had is making a payment after a card failed. The payment link is a bit hard to find: I have to go to the invoice to use the saved card, while the pay button asks for a new card. It would be nice if the saved-card payment option were easier to find on the admin dashboard.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bitwarden gives us one secure place to keep our secrets, so we don’t have to share them over WhatsApp, email, or Discord. When a developer provisions a new service, they can add its passwords and other secrets for the whole team to access without compromising them.

What do you like best about the product?

How easy it is to securely maintain and manage the keys, passwords, IP addresses, all kind of accesses. Including different credentials from all our systems, and services that we currently have in production.

The different options, such as, web browser, browser extension, and the app, are amazing.

As an Network Administrator, I appreciate being able to manage users and permissions from just one central console, instead of having passwords scattered across different locations, files, users, or systems.

What do you dislike about the product?

There is not much I dislike about it. It works really well for our needs. Including my personal usage.

Probably having all the settings on the same console, and not under a different section, such as the Admin Console / Pass Manager.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having different collections and user permissions allow us to control access based on staff responsibilities, which is especially useful when multiple technicians and instructors need access to the same resources.
