    It's free, open source, and, most important, more secure.

    Despite it's an offline open sourced app, easy UI and has an excellent reputation. It still has two major flaws that the developement team does not seem to be worried about. They are even trying to bluff people by minimalizing the importance of these two features ??

    TLDR; Not a good aternative!

    Database can be natively synchronized with cloud storage. You can have a database cert + password protected and have the database tranparently synchronized without needed cert.

    Best android alternative to KeePass. Been using this since a few years.

    I would recommend using a KeyFile along with the Master Password for the best 2FA (2 Factor Authentication).

    Despite KeePassX lacks some fancy features of KeePass and its development is slower, it is native to Linux and have much better performance and bit better look there. Still there are problems about storing the database file in cloud, as KeePassX does not support such services nor plugins, which could help (so you depend on another software to do syncing).

    KeeWeb is KeePass-compatible & open source. It has most of the most important functions, although it is less well-established and lacks plugin support to extend its functionality and offer browser integration. On the other hand, it works natively on Mac, which KeePass does not.

    One of the best password manager, even better than original KeePass

    It has a pleasant GUI design and the Auto-type function along with "Mix real keystrokes with random" is most useful on their Desktop App. Most of all, this app is open source.
