I use Bitwarden as my main non-OS or device specific password manager. I use multiple devices with different OS for work. Bitwarden solves the issue of having a password manager that works with pretty much any device and OS. If I use the iPhone built-in password manager, I have to manually look up and type the password into a Windows laptop. If I use a browser-based password manager like Google...then when I have a password for a non-browser-based application, I'm also back to cutting and pasting passwords.
Pros
Access to save and retrieve password on multiple devices and OS
Auto creation of passwords which you can customize length and complexity level.
Ability to organize passwords by subject folders
Ability to organize different passwords by types like cards vs sites vs identity, and notes
Cons
Laptop access is not as easy as phone access
Likelihood to Recommend
If you are using multiple devices (phone, laptop, tablet, desktop) with multiple operating systems (Windows, Linux, MacOS, iOS, Android), and multiple browsers (Edge, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera, etc.,) Bitwarden is excellent as it has apps, exe files, and browser extensions for all the most popular and mainstream tools. Also, the core and most valuable password manager features are free. If you needed, wanted some extra features, their upgraded plans are very reasonably priced.
Secure Password Sharing: Bitwarden enables users to securely share passwords and sensitive information with team members or collaborators. This feature allows organizations to facilitate secure password sharing without compromising security.
Pros
Strong Password Generation: Bitwarden's password generator feature is highly customizable and generates strong, random passwords. It allows users to specify the length, character types (uppercase, lowercase, digits, symbols), and even exclude ambiguous characters.
Cross-Platform Accessibility: Bitwarden provides seamless access to passwords and sensitive information across multiple platforms and devices. It offers browser extensions for popular web browsers, dedicated desktop applications for Windows, macOS, and Linux, as well as mobile apps for iOS and Android. This enables users to access their vault from anywhere, making it convenient and user-friendly.
Self-Hosting Option: In addition to the cloud-hosted version of Bitwarden, the product offers a self-hosting option for organizations that require complete control over their data.
Cons

Bitwarden supports various forms of two-factor authentication, including time-based one-time passwords (TOTP), Duo, YubiKey, and other hardware-based tokens. This integration enhances the security of the Bitwarden account and allows to store and manage their 2FA credentials for other applications within Bitwarden itself.
I use Bitwarden to keep my passwords safe, in conjunction with other software and hardware tools/keys to authenticate and verify my identity. This lets me keep both my own information safe but also that of my clients, which is my utmost priority. I also recommend, deploy, and support Bitwarden in client installations and use cases.

Bitwarden is equally suited to both consumer-level security solutions as well as small business implementation - The user interfaces and experience are suitable for both types of implementation and deployment. Since I have no exposure to larger corporate environments, I cannot accurately confirm nor deny its usefulness in this tier or level of scope/application.
