  1. Roboform - ubiquitous, multi-device viewable, easy on Best Tool For Remembering Passwords? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I've been using this for years. I've tried KeePass, 1Password, etc for weeks each, and kept coming back to Roboform. Roboform is MUCH better than any of these I've tried at filling forms easily/fast - not just passwords, but identity and credit card/payment information. My biggest complaint with it has always been syncing my encrypted roboform directory files between different machines - used live sync, sugarsync, etc - but now they do that also, with a free RoboForm Online account. Data still encrypted, but I can now get to it with my master password and any web browser. (Even dumb phones). PLUS - they've come out with clients for the iPhone. (Have had Palm, WinMobile, Blackberry, Symbian clients for quite awhile). I have full access to my codes, always synced, EVERYWHERE I go. Love it. My final favorite use for this, in addition to the password vault, is for ALL my bookmarks. I got tired of syncing/restoring/losing bookmarks between different laptops, desktops, OSs, etc some time ago - so I now have thousands saved over the last several years into my Roboform repository. I save them (as well as passcards, etc) with a few extra keywords, and use the Roboform search window to very rapidly go to any website (and login if necessary), even when I can't remember exactly what the site was called - pull it up by subject/keyword. A major timesaver. Cost some $$, but not much, and well worth it.
