Strengths and trade-offs

Strengths

  • Desktop apps for macOS, Windows and Linux, plus a browser app
  • Opens files from Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive or your own server
  • Free and open-source, with sources on GitHub you can build yourself
  • Files cached for offline use, changes synced when back online

Trade-offs

  • Web version has almost all desktop features, so parity is not complete
  • Mobile browsers only cover viewing details and copying passwords
  • You supply the KeePass file and the cloud or server storage behind it
  • Development funded by donations via Open Collective or GitHub sponsors
