Start with the reason for leaving
1Password Business is used for teams improving password security and access control. A switch is justified only when a named workflow, cost, control, service, or portability constraint outweighs the disruption of change. Use this shortlist to select candidates for the same buyer-defined tests.
| Option | Relationship | Useful when | Evidence to collect |
|---|---|---|---|
| LastPass Business | Same category | teams replacing shared passwords with managed vaults | per-user vault pricing; test export and migration. |
| Bitwarden | Same category | teams evaluating open-source and self-hosting options | Confirm current packaging, support, security, export, and implementation scope. |
| Dashlane | Same category | business users comparing managed vault and access controls | Confirm current packaging, support, security, export, and implementation scope. |
Shortlist method
Start with must-have workflows, then score each vendor against pricing transparency, rollout effort, security controls, reporting needs, and exit options.
Shortlist around the job, not the brand
These options overlap with business password management, but they are not interchangeable. Write one test for every required job.
- Vault, sharing, policy, recovery, and administrator controls.
- Directory, sso, scim, device, and developer workflow support.
- Employee, guest, family, and support entitlements.
- Emergency access, audit export, and migration support.
Migration proof to request before cancellation
Options are grouped by overlapping buyer workflow. Verify current capabilities, pricing, and contract terms through the linked official sources and a representative workflow test. See the comparison methodology.
