## Reviews

### "passwork as password manager" — 4.0/5

> **Wouter** | *08 July 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that you can host it yourself and have complete control over where it stores it's data.
> 
> **Cons**: The auto complete browser plugins are not as well designed as some of the competition.

### "glad to use it" — 4.0/5

> **Matthieu** | *09 March 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Passwork is very easy to use, with a clean and intuitive interface that makes it simple to store, organize, and retrieve passwords quickly, even for non‑technical users.
> 
> **Cons**: User management can feel limited and sometimes inconvenient, especially when dealing with complex team structures or needing more granular control over permissions and access rights.
> 
> Overall, my experience with Passwork has been positive. It provides a reliable and user‑friendly solution for securely managing passwords within a team. Daily usage is straightforward, and the platform feels stable and efficient. The only real friction point comes from its user‑management capabilities, which could be more flexible, but the core functionality works very well.

### "Happy alltogether" — 5.0/5

> **Dennis** | *06 February 2025* | Public Policy | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The Browser addon, which is very useful and practical.&#10;The Support Team does an outstanding Job as well and overall helpful and always polite.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing to complain about until now. Very happy.
> 
> From the setup to the daily use very helpful. We just puplished the software to all of our workers and hard no problems.

### "Passwork review with local LDAP" — 5.0/5

> **Martin** | *09 January 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Self-hosted&#10;Attractive user interface&#10;Familiar user interface (like Windows Explorer)&#10;Perpetual User Licenses&#10;Not too overwhelming&#10;Security&#10;Easy updates&#10;Easy to use search functionality
> 
> **Cons**: Limited LDAP login options&#10;Non-descriptive login error-messages&#10;the browser plugin sometimes needs new Authentication which confuses end-users&#10;Login problems with LDAP
> 
> Generally it has been very pleasant and easy. The most problem we had was with the login, particularly with the fact that Passwork does not support LDAP email login (it cant use the email AD Attribute). Once a user was logged in, there were almost never problems with the usage, whether it be creating, reading, sharing, searching, deleting password etc.

### "Password Pro (self hosted system) review" — 5.0/5

> **Steve** | *26 November 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a simple and easy to use password manager, once setup. Our non-technical staff use it without issue multiple times a day. It also has all of the features we care about without being too difficult to learn or use. We are able to securely access and share our passwords with minimal effort. I believe it is competitively priced based on my research
> 
> **Cons**: Depending on your installation method, keeping the product up to date can be involved. If using the self-hosted product, I suggest sticking with the Docker deployment method.
> 
> Great. On the rare occasions where we've required support from the Passwork team, they have been friendly, professional and have responded to our queries with minimal delays.
