1Password vs. Norton 360

1password is the best solution for storing your passwords and other sensitive data as well as sharing it with employees of your company easily and efficiently. It has a web interface for managing your passwords and users as well as user groups. 1password can be installed on almost any OS and integrated with all popular web browsers

For a stand-alone business this should do the trick, but if using across multiple clients (multi-tenancy not an option). Default settings within the program will cause performance issues if not tweaked, meaning someone with networking experience may be necessary. Not ideal for MSP's unless they only have a few clients, as the manageability must be done within "the walls" of each company.

• 1Password's Watchtower service is a real value add - 1Password monitors the security news for evidence of security breaches containing your credentials and alerts you if you have been impacted. That is a huge value as it enables you to get out in front of a security breach and be proactive in protecting yourself.
• 1Password's core strength is that it makes it easy to practice good security hygiene by using strong, unique passwords for each site you interact with. This is something that all password managers do now, but offering an easy experience is key.
• 1Password's password sharing features makes it easy to share team credentials with other team members, and to decide who amongst the team gets access to the designated credentials.

• Norton works quite quickly and is efficient enough to detect threats
• It is very easy and simple to install and is without any complications and irrelevant inquiries.
• Norton is available at a very reasonable price in the market and is not heavy on pocket.

• 1Password is so secure, that it lacks a self-managed "forget your password" functionality which means that as a manager, I have to approve password resets which may slow down some users.
• On Chrome, the extension sometimes stops working when the browser is updated.

• It uses a lot of RAM which can cause issues in other areas of computer use.
• If you chose to un-install it can be difficult to get rid of all traces of the program.
• The initial configuring can be challenging for the average user as the manuals are overwhelming. Better tutorials would be helpful.

1Password is a great password manager and it helps us a lot in our every day duties at the company. Since implementing this solution we also feel way more secure when it comes to our own data or the data of our Clients.

I did renew it before because support is great and cost is great. I believe that Norton has a very long experience in what they do and they are doing a great job with all the updates they provide and the work they are doing. Moreover Norton is going in the right direction for sure.

The 1Password app design is top notch, much better than a couple other password managers I've looked at. The app and service are very flexible, allowing for many different types of data storage. The browser extensions generally work very well, allowing for easy access to login information while using pretty much any modern web browser.

User interface is excellent. The green tickmark in the tray ensuring everything is undercontrol is so satisfying. I have turned on Auto updates so, I am not bothered about unnecessary download updates popup

I haven't had to use the support team since using the product, so that's saying something. But I did reference the FAQs and information materials to help with the initial setup. All in all, I found all of the information and clarity I needed to get set up and begin fully using the platform.

Security software with very good features that works in the background.

Price suitable for companies of any size and easy to install and use.

Would like a manual or online version that is simple to understand and explains in detail what choices we have and why to make these choices.

I do have LastPass set up for our front office workers since their free version does fine for managing the few passwords they have. Since that computer is in an area accessed by most of the staff and visible to the public, I didn't want sticky notes with sensitive passwords laying around. The main advantage of that usage is that it does offer a free version, and with so little to manage, the paid 1Password would not be a good value for us there. But it does, of course, have its limitations. The interface is a bit clunky, and we don't have any desktop or mobile versions set up to try to sync with, just the one web browser based version, so I can't speak to the accessibility, but it does not "feel" as robust and easy to use as 1Password.

User-friendly interface (it's not just AV and users who were interacting with the product), performance, resource usage (most of the computers were not very fresh and that factor was very critical), efficiency, it shouldn't be just sitting on a PC - it should protect it, what was perfectly done with that product.

• Our business has over 500 different passwords that are required to log into other websites for billing. Allowing easy login to the different entities saves time and money.
• 1Password encrypts all the passwords, protects them, preventing hackers from obtaining all of the information and causing disruption to the business.
• Having multi-users save time and money because everyone will have access to all passwords at the tip of the finger without having to ask request passwords from other employees. Furthermore, employees who require the passwords on the field will also have access to the password. Furthermore, our IT department requires access to passwords to employee's computers in order to assist with troubleshooting. This allows the IT department to access computers remotely without asking for passwords receiving passwords over the internet.

• Poor performance against Spyware and other threats despite claiming to act against them (recognizes very few and eliminates less) It is limited to viruses.
• Regular blocking of incoming scripts (in front of other antivirus)
• Little or almost no compatibility with the Windows XP Firewall, but they are involved.
