This also comes with the ability to access your passwords over the Web and share them in a secure way with colleagues and family members. If you want to back up your digital vault or synchronize it across multiple devices, including those running iOS and Windows, the company also offers a custom cloud offering that saves all the information on its servers for a fee of $40 per year. Like with the introduction, this feels a bit overbearing but is also a great way to encourage users to save as much of their data as possible for later use. For example, when they detect a new login, they display a modal dialog that captures the browser’s entire input until you’ve decided whether you want to store the username and password inside Dashlane. In keeping with the rest of the user interface, the browser extensions tend to be quite verbose. Unlike Safari’s own autofill, the app will also save and fill the CVV code on your credit cards, which makes for fewer trips into your wallet when you want to buy something online. In addition to logins and passwords, you can also use Dashlane to autofill all kinds of forms with your personal information and credit card data. An extension in every browserĭashlane is compatible with all three popular browsers and makes installing extensions for Safari, Chrome, and Firefox as easy as picking an item from a menu and following a few instructions.

In addition to passwords, the app lets you store credit cards, secure notes, and personal information that can be used to quickly fill a web form. For my part, I will note that I imported all kinds of data from two of Dashlane’s competitors as well as from my Mac’s keychain, without any problem whatsoever.


If you’re a password management veteran, this welcoming mat is a bit on the heavy side, but it’s certain to be a boon to less experienced users.
