It offers 2FA and and asymmetric end-to-end encryption to secure passwords for company accounts. > > **Cons**: It’s been over 8 months but the only flaw on Passbolt is pricing which is a bit high compared to alternatives such as Zoho Vault. ----- ### "Open-source Password Manager of 2024" — 5.0/5 > **Tonie** | *11 November 2024* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Passbolt is full open-source which makes it super easy to customize without coding. In addition, it has collaboration capability which allows users to share passwords in one place. > > **Cons**: Fully hosted enterprise tier is a bit expensive to upgrade compared to alternatives. > > It is easy to share and manage passwords with teams in real-time. ----- ### "Every sign-in, Secure." — 5.0/5 > **Colin** | *16 September 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This software is so much more than a password manager. Offers security and productivity wrapped into one. > > **Cons**: It is challenging to use on phone especially with the auto-fill option while signing in. > > Manage access to every application and web account for every member. We can securely share passwords, secrets and more. ----- ### "Great on-premise password solution for offline cloud environments" — 5.0/5 > **Sam** | *20 January 2025* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Open source - incredibly important to me, I want full control over the security, as well as knowing how it's setup. As long as your setup provides depth security you will be fine - very easy to setup but would prefer more intuitive deployments. > > **Cons**: Sometimes, especially with passwords, you want peace of mind - although with self hosted applications you want lots of backups - I wish this was easier, and had the ability to automate it to a number of locations knowing it will restore 100% of the time. > > Overall, great - does what it needs to. More features than some competitors, and the self hosted nature makes it very good for my on-premise environments - definitely feel as if it's more secure than cloud/online based alternatives. ----- ### "A nice password manager for teams" — 4.0/5 > **Sergio** | *26 February 2025* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: - It's open source, which is always nice. - You can share passwords with specific users or groups. - The information is end-to-end encrypted. - You can use MFA with it. > > **Cons**: - It's self-hosted, which could be a pro instead a con, but being self-hosted you have to handle updates and security patches. - Some of the configurations (specially the one which is needed to be done in Active Directory) is not very intuitive or simple. > > Although we faced some problems during its deployment, the tool works fine once configured. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/158063/passbolt?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/158063/passbolt) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
