GateKeeper Enterprise by Untethered Labs is automated password management, authentication, and auditing. It is designed so that IT admins can eliminate password and authentication problems with hands-free computer and website access through proximity-based 2FA. Instead of authenticating only once to log in to a computer and website, GateKeeper Enterprise enforces continuous authentication to ensure that the logged in user is still there. When the user leaves, the computer…

1password is the best solution for storing your passwords and other sensitive data as well as sharing it with employees of your company easily and efficiently. It has a web interface for managing your passwords and users as well as user groups. 1password can be installed on almost any OS and integrated with all popular web browsers
The best uses that we have found for GateKeeper have been for medical offices. We have a customer that uses mobile workstations when doing patient workups, and this has enabled them to step away from the station, evaluate the patient, and then go back to their mobile workstation without having to log in via password since they were within a set range the PC didn't lock. If they had walked more than 5 ft from their workstation, it would lock by Gatekeeper Proximity so the private data on the PC would not be at risk.
1Password's Watchtower service is a real value add - 1Password monitors the security news for evidence of security breaches containing your credentials and alerts you if you have been impacted. That is a huge value as it enables you to get out in front of a security breach and be proactive in protecting yourself.
1Password's core strength is that it makes it easy to practice good security hygiene by using strong, unique passwords for each site you interact with. This is something that all password managers do now, but offering an easy experience is key.
1Password's password sharing features makes it easy to share team credentials with other team members, and to decide who amongst the team gets access to the designated credentials.
1Password is so secure, that it lacks a self-managed "forget your password" functionality which means that as a manager, I have to approve password resets which may slow down some users.
On Chrome, the extension sometimes stops working when the browser is updated.
1Password is a great password manager and it helps us a lot in our every day duties at the company. Since implementing this solution we also feel way more secure when it comes to our own data or the data of our Clients.
The 1Password app design is top notch, much better than a couple other password managers I've looked at. The app and service are very flexible, allowing for many different types of data storage. The browser extensions generally work very well, allowing for easy access to login information while using pretty much any modern web browser.
I haven't had to use the support team since using the product, so that's saying something. But I did reference the FAQs and information materials to help with the initial setup. All in all, I found all of the information and clarity I needed to get set up and begin fully using the platform.
I do have LastPass set up for our front office workers since their free version does fine for managing the few passwords they have. Since that computer is in an area accessed by most of the staff and visible to the public, I didn't want sticky notes with sensitive passwords laying around. The main advantage of that usage is that it does offer a free version, and with so little to manage, the paid 1Password would not be a good value for us there. But it does, of course, have its limitations. The interface is a bit clunky, and we don't have any desktop or mobile versions set up to try to sync with, just the one web browser based version, so I can't speak to the accessibility, but it does not "feel" as robust and easy to use as 1Password.
Our business has over 500 different passwords that are required to log into other websites for billing. Allowing easy login to the different entities saves time and money.
1Password encrypts all the passwords, protects them, preventing hackers from obtaining all of the information and causing disruption to the business.
Having multi-users save time and money because everyone will have access to all passwords at the tip of the finger without having to ask request passwords from other employees. Furthermore, employees who require the passwords on the field will also have access to the password. Furthermore, our IT department requires access to passwords to employee's computers in order to assist with troubleshooting. This allows the IT department to access computers remotely without asking for passwords receiving passwords over the internet.
Although the number seems small at first, minutes saved per day not having to log in / having proximity unlock add up over time. Each user's gatekeeper pays for itself over the year just by shaving a few minutes of time off logins each day.
Training time with end users generally takes 15 minutes or less.
