I need some advice, have a small five person group right now that needs a password manager, they are cross platform, and the group will probably expand to 12-15 by the end of the year. I am not that concerned about a subscription, just want a manager that is easy to manage from a top level. Personally I use 1Password, but have never shared or tried it with a group.
Definitely try 1PW with a group. We migrated from a single user to individual team accounts last year (similarly sized work group) and the experience was smooth. Rather than start with Business tier, I would start with the Teams ten-pack and see if you need to grow into the business features or will just need to add 1-5 accounts on top of the initial ten as you grow.
P.S. Don’t turn on the have-I-been-pwned domain-level alerts unless you enjoy bearing the curse of knowledge.
1Password is definitely a great experience for individual and shared use, but if you’re budget conscious, there’s always Keepass. We use it at work among our team, with the password ‘database’ stored on a Network share in a restricted permission folder, and we use SSH keys to authenticate to it. It’s not pretty, but it works.
1Password for Teams is pretty sweet. We use it at Relay and I can manage who has access to what, etc. And my personal vault can live right beside my company ones.
