LastPass vs Duo Security Comparison

Tons of features and very enterprise friendly with built in shared password folders, amazing authentication options. Very reliable and quick to support new things.

A bit challenging to get used to at first, but once you get the hang of it it is not bad.

People are terrible at remembering passwords. They're even worse about creating passwords. LastPass takes the guesswork out of both. By having a solution that allows for the secure creation and storage of passwords, the most significant vulnerability in our organization is taken care of. I like that I can shut down accounts of employees after they leave us. I like that there's so much policy control- it prevents bad things from happening at the source. Integration with active directory makes it even more seamless, as it makes identity federation possible. My staff loves that they only need to remember one password; I love that hundreds of their passwords are secure. It's also a great way to share passwords without compromising our systems.

I guess I wish it cost less (though four bucks a user is pretty reasonable). Lastpass is, with a few exceptions, a single function tool, and the costs add up.

It really really helps me do something we all should be doing: keeping our passwords secure and safe. After the initial setup, I now have versions on my computer and iPhone and have access to my passwords for any saved site, at my fingertips. I just feel safer.

The setup is time consuming, but there's no way around it. You have to manually change all your passwords and save the new ones to lastpass. But once you're set up it's super easy.

Lastpass does an amazing job of keeping passwords secure and easily accessible. Syncing with my mobile phone and browsers makes life much easier.

Occasionally the mobile app will either not offer a password for an app or website, or it will offer it too many times.

Secure Dont have to try and remember 3 billion passwords Safer than storing your passwords in your browser Share passwords among work groups that need access to a single point Military grade encryption = peace of mind Can be paired with DUO for dual authentication

If you do forget your master password, recovering it is kind of a pain... but maybe thats a good thing too

Very secure, very flexible, with sharing and one time passwords, autogeneration of passwords is a really nice feature and it offers to tstore it immediately after it creates it.

Difficult to use (no fault of theirs) since every site on the internet is built differently, but misses many sites and publishes all passwords under the main domain instead of host header, so you get 20 results for 1 website.

cross-platform support, security checkups, variety of security settings, customizable password generator

it gets confused sometimes about what's a login and what isn't, which can cause annoying "would you like to save this password" popups over input fields that aren't passwords

Everyone needs unique logins for every website and service we use. This is the easiest to master tool for creating and managing passwords or across devices that I've tried. It's also the least expensive. The pricing tiers (basic essential tools are free) prove that LastPass as a company is committed to making the Internet a safer place for users, not just to make money. Advanced functionality is paid for by the companies that need it, not by average consumers. This makes me loyal, and I've paid the yearly fee even though I don't absolutely have to. Customer service is also excellent and responsive, particularly on Twitter. LastPass has also finally addressed some UI problems with their iOS app.

Logins and passwords are not always captured, or saved. Doesn't happen very often, but it does. In addition, I have an ongoing problem with WordPress.com. My main account is on the subdomain, en.wordpress.com, but when I go to simply wordpress.com, LastPass doesn't list that login as one of the saved ones. Very frustrating, and hasn't been solved in the years since I reported it.

Reduced all my passwords into one single sign on. This has allowed my coworkers and I to use randomly generated, difficult-to-crack passwords for every website or tool that we use. This means that if one website is compromised, the rest of our data is safe. Everyone should use this.

I'm not sure if it's my own fault or not but I wish it worked better with my Touch-ID/Face-ID on my Apple devices. If it could be a total native replacement for Keychain I would be ecstatic.

I love the toolbar bookmark feature that automatically asks you if you want to store a password or if you change the password it automatically asks if you want to save the new one. I love the autofill when I am on websites too.

Sometimes it doesn't alway recognize a website and I have to manually enter the password.

The convenience of having all passwords stored in one location

Uncertainty about the security and protection

You no longer have to remember multiple logins, LP stores all your valuable login information, notes and allows you to share logins with several other users.

When I want to login, I need to do it fairly quickly. I have to go through 2FA to get logged in taking up additional time. I understand this is just an additional security measure, but it's more of a nuisance to me.

The process of dual password security while accessing secret text files. This adds much needed security.

Needs to improve compatibility with other platforms for autofill.

Security and convenience.

Some of the features can be a little confusing.

LastPass is all about security. Now I do not hate to keep all my passwords in my head. When I create a new password or need login details for the service I used long time ago, I use LastPass. More than that - LastPass offers a super safe way to share passwords with your friends or family, or work.

Due to security issues LastPass can ask you for security code more often thank you expect. That's the only cons-thing with LastPass.

I use this product daily and depend on it to provide safe storage of passwords. I recommend it to family and friends all the time. Now I recommend it to you!

I don't have anything negative to say about this product.

- I don't have to remember 100 plus passwords for all the different accounts that I have - Very secure, I'm not worried about getting hacked - The chrome app is easy to set up and use

With LastPass, forgetting its password means getting locked out of literally all your accounts. Though this has not happened to me, thankfully.

Easy to use, share and access this password reminder software

Sometimes on shared sites, when I update my access it doesn't update those that I have shared it with.

Very easy to use and implement with great smart features.

Security and breach are always on my mind.

I liek the synchronization and ease of use browser plugins work great overall great .... EXCEPT Security

Password manager with out security is a disaster

The ease of use, multi platform support, the Authenticator app, password sharing with friends and family.

Some recent security breaches and the slow response.

I love how LastPass can control all of the passwords for your most secure systems. It is security for security.

As a user, sometimes the chrome extension often runs into error (for reasons unknown to me). However, I usually just log back into the chrome extension to get it to work again.

The toolbar add-on -- PERFECT. This little helper pops up every time I navigate to a site that has been added to my account. It uses a two-part verification system so your passwords are kept safe. The pop-up also "notices" when you enter login info for an unregistered site -- it will pop up and ask for you to add the site or not. This has seriously decreased the amount of time that I spend beating my head against my desk trying to remember various passwords. LOVE this!

The only con I have noticed is that the pop-up tool can be a little over zealous. I'd much rather have it than not have it, but I have to tell it "no" a lot.

The password generator is good for security and preventing hacking, gives a sense of security and everything is saved in one place.

At some point, maintaining the software became challenging with adding new passwords and refilling the fields didn't work as well, so we abandoned using it.

I never have to remember a password and it keeps everything secure.

When I want to login to different Google accounts it makes things difficult cause it remembers one password/username and not the other.

Fast set up Ties in with Active Directory Easy end user app makes logging in a breeze Multiple ways for end user to get alert for secondary log in, or just use generated pass key

Sometimes the push feature for secondary authentication doesnt like to work(it does not ring the app) leaving users hanging and not knowing they need to approve the log in attempt

Duo is simple to use. I can either get a two factor password or set it to send push notifications to my device. It makes it simple and easy to keep your software safer from hackers.

There is nothing wrong with Duo itself but the only issue is that Duo stands alone and is not bundled with other software. Google Authenticator is convenient if you are in Google's ecosystem. I mostly use Lastpass so use that for most of my passwords but must use Duo for work. It would be nice to be integrated into a larger suite of tools.
