So I decided to do a full comparison of Dashlane and LastPass - testing each one’s password management features, additional tools, ease of use, plans and pricing, and customer support.Īfter weeks of testing, researching, and comparing, I settled on a winner - in my opinion, Dashlane is better than LastPass in many ways. On the other hand, LastPass is slightly better at auto-filling web forms, has more account recovery options, is a bit easier to use, provides more helpful in-app tutorials, and has a better free plan.Īfter LastPass announced it was changing its free plan, Dashlane has emerged as the best LastPass alternative in 2021. Dashlane is also the only password manager to provide a virtual private network (VPN), and it’s surprisingly good - the VPN comes with unlimited bandwidth, a strict no-logs policy, and fast speeds. Dashlane has more high-security tools, including the most advanced dark web monitoring system available (they use an internal auditing team to keep users aware of just-released threats). However, Dashlane and LastPass differ in some key areas.
Password generation, auto-save, and auto-fill.
They both have all of the features I expect to see in a premium password manager in 2021, including:
Both are secure, easy to use, and include an impressive range of features - you can’t go wrong with either one. Out of 52 password managers, Dashlane and LastPass consistently rank in the top 5 on our top 10 list every year.
