I was looking at Dashlane which seemed to have some good features, including some ability to do password rotation automatically, and some level of yubikey support. That said I'm still using keepass. I discovered it when I needed a solution that worked on an original Surface RT, as well as an iphone, and I've remained happy.

Now Dashlane seems to have in browser apps and finally supports Linux, I'm looking at moving away from Lastpass.

Between them and BitWarden there seems to be quite good options form Linux users now.

If anyone is a DashLane/BitWarden user and wants to chime in with their experience them that would be much appreciated.

I love Dashlane, and the Linux support is solid through the browser extension. Dashlane has the best interface across devices, of all the password managers I've used. The password sharing feature is great for business.

Sure, it's a cloud service, but it's polished enough that I can get non-tech people like my family and coworkers to actually use it. Lastpass did not pass that test.

I use Dashlane every day on Mac, Linux, Windows, and Android.

Thanks. One question I have - can you turn off auto-login globally or just on a per website basis? Docs seem to imply on a per site basis only but that seems a bit odd.

I'm wondering how DashLane handles multiple logins for the same service (Google/GitHub etc etc).

I'm not sure about the global option, I've never tried.

For multiple logins on the same service/domain, it presents a clickable/tappable list.

Hello and thank you for your comment. I am Thibault, from Dashlane's User Support team

If you mean having several accounts for the same service (aka. Google/Github), then yes. All you will need to do is create a Dashlane "credential" (id+password) per account.

If you mean Federated sign-ins (such as this one https://i.imgur.com/se5toyn.png), then it should be possible as long as the button opens a browser window on the right domain (Facebook, Google, etc).

Please don't hesitate to contact us directly through our Help Center if you have other questions about Dashlane !

Been using (and paying for) Dashlane for a couple years now. I love it. The things I like the most:

1. Supports TouchID on my newer MacBook. 2. Supports generating OTP's, stored alongside the credentials.

Not sure if the competitors have these also. In general though, I've been a super happy Dashlane user.

Hello,

Thanks for your message. I am Thibault, from Dahslane's User Support team, and am here to provide you with a bit of information.

Here are a few things to know about Dashlane!

* Dashlane does integrate with Yubikeys for Two-factor Authentication. All keys are compatible except for "FIDO U2F Special SECURITY KEY". Please see this link http://bit.ly/2FnNxka for more information on the subject

* Dashlane has been consistently rated the easiest password manager to use, which is extremely important since the last thing you want is a headache every time you’re trying to store or access your passwords. Don’t just take our word for it - Dashlane has over 50,000 5-star reviews.

* Dashlane is the only password manager with a U.S. patent for its security architecture. And your Master Password is never stored on our servers. Never!

Please note that although we propose the Password Changer feature, the automatic rotation is yet to be developed. I will pass you request down to the Development team for further consideration.

I confirm you Dashlane is indeed compatible with iOS devices, and you can access your Dashlane account trough the Web App with your Surface RT!

If I can be of any further help, please let me know!
