Speaker 1: My name is Nathan. I'm a visiting assistant professor. I rate Bitwarden five out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click below. In the past, I've used Google Password Manager. I've also used 1Password and LastPass. I've switched to Bitwarden because it's free and open source, and I can host it myself. I did some research, looking around at different reviews on the internet, and ultimately went with Bitwarden because, as I mentioned, it's free, it's open source and there's no hidden costs. When I first started with Bitwarden, it was super simple to transfer everything from Google Password and from LastPass. Just a super simple process to get set up. For anyone who's considering Bitwarden, I would encourage you to go for it. It's the best password manager that I've found, the most secure with the most customization. And it's a great, great password manager.

4.0

David Y.: Hi, my name is David. I'm a marketing manager. I give Connect Secure four out of five stars. For more reviews like this click below. So we have proprietary software that can only be accessed while you are using Connect Secure. So if I just log into my company's user account, my user account and I try to access it, I can't. So it's essentially making sure that no unauthorized personnel can get to the software. It's software we use to edit and publish content. Not everybody has access to it because not everybody needs access to it. So that's really what it's used for. So it's for security purposes. What I like most about Connect Secure is it's simple to use. To access it I simply click on an icon on my desktop. I select the connection site and we have east and west set up. So since I'm on the west coast, I use west. Simply click that, enter my password and I'm good for eight hours. One thing I'd like to change about Connect Secure is although I am connected to it for eight hours or so procession. I would like to be able to stay connected longer, particularly on days when I have to work longer than eight hours. It's not a huge inconvenience. It's certainly by no means a huge hassle or deterrent to the product. It's just a minor inconvenience to have to log in again when you're already in a session. That's about the only negative thing I could say about Connect Secure.
