Dashlane alternatives: 11 password managers compared

Teams look for a Dashlane alternative when the product has grown past a password manager into a credential security platform they did not ask for, or when the per-user annual billing no longer fits a small headcount. Most move to a plainer business vault, to one with a self-hosted option, or to a larger identity suite.

Short answer: The closest replacements for Dashlane in our password manager ranking are 1Password, Bitwarden and Keeper. Choose 1Password if you want the closest like-for-like business vault with a growth path into device trust. All 11 alternatives below are ranked products from Best Password Manager for Business in 2026, and each says where it differs from Dashlane.

Vendors can pay for visibility on this site; it never changes what we say about a product. How that works.

Dashlane

#3 of 12 in our password manager ranking

  • Pricing: Per user per month, published
  • Established in: United States
  • Built for: An IT team that must show credential risk going down
  • Not for: A company that wants self-hosting
01

Why buyers look past Dashlane

  1. 01

    The product is now a platform with two packages

    Dashlane's business pricing page is organised around its Omnix platform, with Password Management and Credential Protection sold as separate packages, plus an Enterprise tier priced on contact. Credential Protection adds risk detection, AI phishing alerts and remediation dashboards. A team that only wants shared logins and autofill ends up reading a page designed for security operations.

  2. 02

    Billing is annual and per user

    Both business packages are listed as per user per month, billed annually, with a 14-day free trial offered. Teams that add and remove people through the year, or that want a single flat fee, tend to compare vendors that publish different structures, such as a free tier or a self-hosted edition.

  3. 03

    Admin features lean on integrations

    The feature list on Dashlane's pricing page includes SSO, SCIM, SIEM and SOAR integrations. Organisations that run none of those get less from the platform than the page suggests, and may prefer a vendor whose business plan is simply a vault with sharing and policies.

What each one does differently

1Password

Canada · Per user per month, published; flat-price Teams Starter Pack for up to 10; 14-day trial

1Password sells an Enterprise Password Manager on a request-a-quote basis, alongside Device Trust, SaaS Manager and Privileged Access in a Unified Access platform. It covers the same vault, sharing and audit ground as Dashlane, and the wider platform reaches further into device and application access.

Switch from Dashlane if you want the closest like-for-like business vault with a growth path into device trust.

1Password, #7 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

Bitwarden

United States · Free personal tier; business plans per user per month, published

Bitwarden publishes its server code under AGPL-3.0 and lets organisations self-host on premises or in a private cloud, which Dashlane does not. It offers Teams, Enterprise and Secrets Manager plans and a 14-day trial. Its interface is plainer than Dashlane's and administration of a self-hosted install falls to you.

Switch from Dashlane if you want open source code and the option to host the vault yourself.

Bitwarden, #1 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

Keeper

United States · Per user per month, published; add-ons extra

Keeper separates Business Starter (5 to 10 users), Business and Enterprise plans, and gives every Business user a Family plan. Enterprise adds SCIM, AD/LDAP, SSO/SAML and role-based access control, and the company also sells privileged access management. It is broader than Dashlane on compliance tooling, with a heavier admin console.

Switch from Dashlane if you need role-based access control and a path into privileged access management.

Keeper, #9 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

LastPass

United States · Free plan for one user on one device type; business plans per user per month, published

LastPass offers a free plan limited to one device type, then Business, Business Max, Teams and MSP plans, which is a wider ladder than Dashlane's two packages. It has SaaS monitoring and SaaS Protect features. Its large installed base means most staff have met it before, though our category notes record a difficult security history.

Switch from Dashlane if you want a free entry point and a managed service provider plan.

LastPass, #10 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

Proton Pass

Switzerland · Free tier; paid per user per month, published

Proton Pass is made by Proton AG, a Swiss corporation controlled by the non-profit Proton Foundation. It has a free tier with unlimited logins and devices, and paid plans adding sharing, a built-in authenticator and dark web monitoring. Its business tooling is lighter than Dashlane's credential risk reporting.

Switch from Dashlane if Swiss jurisdiction and a non-profit owner matter and you do not need risk dashboards.

Proton Pass, #2 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

NordPass

Lithuania · Free personal plan for one user; business plans per user per month, published; Teams sold as a 10-user pack

NordPass is a business and personal password manager from the Nord Security group. Its website blocked our automated checks, so we cannot confirm plan details here and rely on our category record, which lists a free personal plan and Teams sold as a 10-user pack. Compare current terms directly before shortlisting.

Switch from Dashlane if you already use other Nord Security products and want one supplier.

NordPass, #8 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

RoboForm

United States · Free tier; business plans per user per year, published

RoboForm sells a single paid business plan with all features, which it describes as having no upgrade tiers, and ties it to SSO and SCIM with Microsoft Entra, Okta, Google Workspace, Ping and OneLogin. It also has a free personal plan on one device. It has no equivalent of Dashlane's phishing detection add-on.

Switch from Dashlane if you want one business price with form filling and standard identity provider integrations.

RoboForm, #4 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

Zoho Vault

India · Free for personal use; paid per user per month, published, low

Zoho Vault has a free plan with unlimited passwords and devices, then Standard, Professional and Enterprise plans, each priced per user, and offers a 15-day trial. It integrates with other Zoho apps. Its Enterprise plan adds Active Directory, SIEM and access request workflows, but there is no phishing detection layer comparable to Dashlane's.

Switch from Dashlane if you already run Zoho and want tiered per-user plans with a free entry level.

Zoho Vault, #11 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

Psono

Germany · Free self-hosted community edition; hosted plans published

Psono is an open source, self-hosted password manager for companies, with a community server published under Apache License 2.0 and a hosted SaaS option. Its site states all business features are free up to 10 users. Support and SLAs are quoted separately, and the interface is more utilitarian than Dashlane's.

Switch from Dashlane if your policy requires running the password server on your own infrastructure.

Psono, #5 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

Enpass

India · One-off licence or per month, published

Enpass Technologies Inc. maintains separate business and personal support centres. Our category record lists a one-off licence or monthly pricing and a vault you store where you choose, rather than a vendor-hosted vault. Its website blocked our automated checks, so those terms are unconfirmed here and should be verified.

Switch from Dashlane if you want to control where the vault file is stored and avoid a pure subscription.

Enpass, #6 of 12 in our password manager ranking →

Idira Workforce Password Management (formerly CyberArk)

United States · Quoted per organisation; part of a wider platform

CyberArk's workforce password management now sits under the Idira brand of Palo Alto Networks, an identity security platform covering privileged access, machine and agentic identities. It is quoted per organisation as part of that platform, so it suits security-led purchases rather than a team wanting a simple vault.

Switch from Dashlane if password management is one part of a wider privileged access programme.

04

When Dashlane is still the right choice

Dashlane remains the right choice when security staff want to see credential risk across the company and act on it. Its Credential Protection package detects risky credentials and phishing in the browser and feeds remediation workflows, and the platform integrates with SSO, SCIM and SIEM tools. If you already run those systems and will read the dashboards, a plain vault would give up the part you are paying for.

05

What moving off Dashlane involves

  1. 01

    Check what the new vault can import and enforce

    Export your vault data and test a pilot group before moving everyone. Confirm that shared collections, admin policies and SSO or SCIM provisioning map to the new vendor's equivalents, since these are the parts that differ most between products and rarely transfer automatically.

  2. 02

    Decide what happens to risk reporting

    If you use Dashlane's credential risk detection or phishing alerts, list who reads them. Most alternatives offer password health reports but not an equivalent response workflow, so the duty may need to move to your identity or endpoint tools.

06

Questions about replacing Dashlane

6 answers
Does Dashlane have a free trial for business plans?

Yes. Dashlane's business pricing page offers a 14-day free trial for the Password Management package. Enterprise is priced on contact with sales, and the Credential Protection package is shown with a contact sales option.

What is the difference between Dashlane Password Management and Credential Protection?

Password Management is the vault, sharing, policy and integration layer. Credential Protection adds credential risk detection, AI phishing detection in the browser, risk notifications and remediation dashboards. Dashlane sells them as separate packages, both priced per user per month, billed annually.

Which Dashlane alternative can be self-hosted?

Bitwarden supports self-hosting on premises or in a private cloud, and Psono is built around a self-hosted server with a hosted SaaS option. Both publish their server code under open source licences, AGPL-3.0 for Bitwarden and Apache License 2.0 for the Psono community server.

Is there a free alternative to Dashlane for a small team?

Several vendors offer free entry points. Psono states all business features are free up to 10 users, Zoho Vault has a free plan, and Proton Pass, RoboForm and LastPass have free personal tiers with limits such as device count.

Check the limits against how your team shares passwords.

Is there an alternative based in Europe?

Proton Pass is operated by Proton AG in Switzerland, and Psono is listed in our data as German. Dashlane lists Dashlane Inc.

in its website footer and Dashlane SAS as the trademark owner. Location alone does not decide data handling, so read each vendor's data processing terms.

Which alternative is closest to Dashlane for admins?

1Password and Keeper are the nearest on admin depth, with SSO, provisioning and policy controls. Keeper Enterprise lists SCIM, AD/LDAP, SSO/SAML and role-based access control. Neither is a drop-in match for Dashlane's browser phishing detection.
