Is KeePassX a good alternative to KeePass?Comments about KeePassX as an Alternative to KeePass
KuboFHromoslavDespite 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).

Is KeeWeb a good alternative to KeePass?Comments about KeeWeb as an Alternative to KeePass
John FastmanKeeWeb 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.
2One of the best password manager, even better than original KeePass
2Akhilesh_TIt 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.

Is Spectre a good alternative to KeePass?Comments about Spectre as an Alternative to KeePass
John FastmanGenius invention. Doesn't store your passwords anywhere; it generates them everytime you put in the same Master password and username/website domain. Therefore, your password database can't be hacked - it doesn't exist. However, it's harder to change passwords for accounts because you have to use the iteration feature. Test it to see if it suits your needs. Thumbs up for open source also.

Comments about KeePassXC as an Alternative to KeePass
It's free, open source, and, most important, more secure.
Unfortunately, KeePassXC lacks a very useful option to display custom columns in the main list (e.g. if you add a field like "email" or "displayname" to your password entries, you might want to be able to quickly see where have you used a given email.) This is a dealbreaker for me.
Native client, more cross platform than mono/.NET based KeePass
