Categories & Use Cases

It's worth the money!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is used for storing all site passwords, hardware passwords (equipment accessed by IP), form data and company credit card data used to complete orders at vendor websites. It stores and password protects them so they are safe from anyone without the proper access.

Pros

  • creates unique, strong passwords
  • simplifies login to websites
  • allows the user to create folders to organize the passwords

Cons

  • filling forms doesn't always fill in everything that is asked for, even though it is in RoboForm
  • the mobile version does not work with browsers. you have to open the site from within RoboForm

Return on Investment

  • it saves an enormous amount of time getting to websites
  • it allows you to keep track of past passwords in the notes so you can refer back to them to reset a password (sometimes sites ask for the last known good password)
  • I have 2 profiles set up - one for business and one for personal so I always have access to every site I need

Usability

RoboForm - true to form!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have used RoboForm for many years following a recommendation from a colleague. It has stood me in good stead and frankly I would be lost with it! I use it many times in a day as I have many apps that require a password, and my brain does not have the capacity to remember all.

Pros

  • Stores passwords.
  • Easy to save and extremely easy to use.
  • Frequent updates are appreciated.

Cons

  • Can't think of any as it works for me.

Return on Investment

  • PRICELESS!!

Used for 12 years and still happy

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

RoboForm helps me manage dozens of passwords I use regularly for business and personal purposes. It saves passwords automatically if you use the RoboForm browser extension. I also use its password generator, which I can format to a specific number of characters, character types, e.g., lower and upper case letters, numbers, and symbols. The software rates the strength of the password. I use it on a Windows desktop, Mac laptop, and iPhone.

Pros

  • Generates complex passwords based on specifications I set, with strength ratings by RoboForm.
  • Saves (stores) passwords in the cloud accessible with a "master password", which Roboform itself does not know (so don't lose that password - it's the only one you need to write down in a safe place).
  • Cross-platform synchronization.
  • They have always responded within 24-48 hours to email support requests.

Cons

  • Recommend periodic purging of unused passwords.
  • Offer a "compromised password" alert feature.
  • Don't remind me about a recent update as often as you do now. (I might be able to control this on my desktop's notification settings?)

Most Important Features

  • Password generator.
  • Cross-platform synch.
  • Reliable and secure.

Return on Investment

  • I've never had my identity stolen based on my personal or solo business use. (I did have it stolen when I worked for the federal government!)
  • None of the passwords I've created using the RoboForm password generator has been compromised - I do check on compromised passwords via Safari browser's program for example.
  • Saves time and money because of the above, and lowers my "hassle factor" because I don't have to keep some kind of elaborate password spreadsheet, which I would have to password protect ... but then where do I store that password?

Great value for a superb password manager

Pros

  • Granularity of permissions in the business version
  • Excellent security features such as OTP (one-time password)
  • Browser integration is excellent... almost flawless.
  • Supports all the major browsers and some minor ones too
  • The random password generator is a handy little tool and easily accessible from the sign-up page

Cons

  • [In my experience] Android browser integration could be better. For example, It does not work much in Chrome on Android.
  • Reseller program [I feel] is not good at all. Not unless you can sell a LOT.

Most Important Features

  • Easy access to our passwords and client passwords
  • Storage of other confidential information like codes, ID, etc.
  • Allow us to control what staff can see and immediately disable access if need be

Return on Investment

  • The cost is not high so the ROI was easy as we use the program efficiently to save time looking for passwords elsewhere.
  • It would be nice if we could gain ROI on commissions from RoboForm where we resell it
