Security alternatives

Dashlane alternatives

Dashlane pairs a documented zero-knowledge design with passkey support, AI-powered scam protection and a VPN in Premium, but it has no free plan and costs more than Bitwarden, LastPass or 1Password.

Why you might look elsewhere

Our Dashlane review noted these limitations:

Premium costs $5.42 a month, more than Bitwarden, LastPass or 1Password
No free plan, only a 14-day trial of Premium
On Friends & Family, only the plan manager gets the VPN
