## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-23 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> For a distributed team, the thing that actually matters isn't the vault - all of these encrypt fine - it's the admin layer: SSO/SCIM so people get access on day one and lose it on their last day, recovery when someone's laptop dies in another timezone, and audit logs. Here's how I'd rank them.
> 
> **1. 1Password Business - my default recommendation.** Best admin experience of the lot, and the one with real answers to remote-specific problems: account recovery handled by admins (no "we lost the vault" when a contractor ghosts), SCIM provisioning against Okta/Entra/Google, and Travel Mode for people crossing borders. It also has the best device coverage and the least friction, which matters because a password manager your team works around is worthless. $8.99/user/mo annually for Business; the Teams Starter Pack is a flat ~$19.95/mo for up to 10 people, which is the cheapest good option for a small team. ([1password.com/pricing/business](https://1password.com/pricing/business))
> 
> **2. Bitwarden - best value, and the one I'd pick if you care about auditability or self-hosting.** Teams is $4/user/mo, Enterprise $6/user/mo annually, both with unlimited users and volume discounts. Enterprise
