    I've spent quite a bit of time looking into the issue of password storage this past year.

    I had originally been using MS Word docs to store everything because I didn't have a better system and hate Excel.

    I researched and tested many different solutions, both online and software that runs locally.

    In short, I found out that there's really no perfect solution because everyone's needs are going to be a little bit different than the developer who created the password management software.

    Ultimately, I wound up going with 1password because for me it checked the most boxes. It's not perfect, but it's a major time saver over individual Word docs.

    I believe you can sync 1password accounts across multiple machines by using a shared dropbox account, but I've never had to look into it.

    • 1password seems to be for website logins only...can you add new fields for other stuff?dbloc
    • Yes you can... at least kinda. You have the ability to add your own fields and your own secure notes section.nocomply
    • But I don't know how well that stuff works with the 1-click login browser extension.nocomply
