This is my experience with everything LastPass touches. Chrome, Firefox, Standalone, iOS, same unresponsive nonsense. Thankfully that's limited to only the corporate environment for me, but if you have a choice, 1password has been amazingly slick for me outside of it.

Exactly that. I'm so happy I convinced my manager to let me rollout 1Password company wide. My problems with LastPass were the clunky web UI and the lack of control I had even for enterprise accounts. I wasn't able to do a password reset for a new team member who pasted the wrong password and couldn't login anymore later on. The email address was not usable afterwards anymore. Costs for us were the same, so it wasn't that hard to convince people after they saw the demo.

Funny you should mention the corporate environment. My company has a LastPass subscription and encourages us to use it, but they don’t prevent us from installing extensions, within reason. Given that , are there any good alternatives that are both secure and trustworthy while imposing as small a performance burden as possible?

I signed up for 1passwords Cloud service, because I needed it on just about every OS and browser under the sun. Works great!

It's a shame really then that it continues to be the most popular password manager.

Hint: It's because LP has a free version
