Bitwarden headquartered in Santa Barbara offers open source password management solutions for individuals, teams, and business organizations.
Honestly, they are very similar as is much of their offerings. It really comes down to which ecosystem are you already invested in? It doesn't make a lot of sense to try and interop with every cloud vendor - pick one and use them. While there used to be substantial differences …
Other solutions felt more clunky or were significantly higher priced. Bitwarden seems to straddle the consumer/prosumer/SMB fence more than adequately by designing their user experience to feel welcoming but also trustworthy and reliable. The other tools seem to assume that …
If your solution falls within their standard use case or you have Office 365 - then it makes total sense. If you need a lot of customization or have a really specific business process that causes you to deviate from the standard flow it usually makes more sense to create a custom solution
Bitwarden supports various forms of two-factor authentication, including time-based one-time passwords (TOTP), Duo, YubiKey, and other hardware-based tokens. This integration enhances the security of the Bitwarden account and allows to store and manage their 2FA credentials for other applications within Bitwarden itself.
Bitwarden is easy to use and has a very straightforward simple interface. Having coverage across multiple platforms is the key to its value to me. Additionally, Bitwarden is consistently rated by third party (PC Magazine, Wired, Tom's Guide, etc.) as one of the best password managers available.

Saves me time by storing all of my login information. I'm no longer digging through my notes app or having to reset passwords that I've forgotten.
Stores vendor names, addresses, and W-9's. I don't have to text or email vendor's asking for this info every time I work with them.
Protects my data by identifying weak or unused passwords. Bitwarden helped me identify multiple weak and reused passwords and I quickly updated them using their built-in password generator.
