The answer, as recorded
Here's what I'd actually recommend for a distributed team: **1. 1Password Business** (~$8/user/mo) - My default pick for most remote teams. The sharing model (shared vaults + per-item permissions) is the easiest for non-technical people to get right, the apps are genuinely good on every platform, and it has the best developer story if your team handles secrets: SSH agent, CLI, `op run` for injecting secrets into env vars, and Secrets Automation. Also includes Travel Mode, which matters if people cross borders. Downside: priciest of the mainstream options, and its free-tier/family bundling is weaker than it used to be. **2. Bitwarden Teams / Enterprise** ($4 / $6 per user/mo) - Best value, and the one I'd pick if cost or auditability is the deciding factor. Open source and independently audited, so you can verify the crypto claims rather than trust them. Self-hosting is a real supported option (Bitwarden or Vaultwarden), which some teams need for compliance. Admin UX is plainer than 1Password's and reporting is less polished, but functionally it covers SSO, SCIM, and org policies. **3. Keeper Business** (~$3.75-$7/user/mo depending on tier) - The one to choose if you're in a regulated industry. FedRAMP Moderate authorized, and it has the most granular RBAC, enforcement policies, and audit logging of the group. Add-ons (BreachWatch dark web monitoring, Advanced Reporting, KeeperPAM) are separately priced, so the real cost lands higher than the headline. UI is the least pleasant of the three, but it's the most defensible in an audit. **4. Dashlane Business** (~$8/user/mo) - Worth a look if your team skews non-technical. Clearest phishing/breach alerting, good autofill, bundled VPN, and a passkey-friendly setup. Less flexible for engineering workflows than 1Password. **Honorable mention: NordPass Business** - cheap and pleasant, and the smoothest Google Workspace provisioning if that's your identity backbone. Smaller feature set and shorter track record. **Who I'd skip:** LastPass. It has separated from GoTo, hardened its infrastructure, and shipped passkey support, but after the 2022 vault-exfiltration breach there's no reason to pick it over the four above for a greenfield deployment. Two things that matter more than the logo, in a remote context specifically: - **Wire it to your IdP from day one.** SSO + SCIM provisioning means offboarding actually revokes access. Note that 1Password and Bitwarden gate SSO behind their higher tiers. - **Decide on secrets vs. passwords.** If engineers are stashing API keys and `.env` files in the vault, you want 1Password's or Bitwarden's secrets tooling rather than retrofitting it later.
