Centralized password sharing has improved secure access and streamlined global team workflows
The important limitation that I find in 1Password Business is that recipients, when you share the data with them, can always manually store that data locally. No system can fully prevent that. We just need to trust the person whom you're sharing the data with. It's not ideal for strangers or unknown parties where we can give them the credit card, which is not ideal. The limitations of 1Password Business where it allows the users to store their data locally are the only limitation, but it doesn't affect the fact that we are using the platform itself because it's really helpful for the team.

With its extension, I can quickly access login information without opening a new browser window
Passportal's stability is okay. However, it goes down a little too often for me to recommend it to somebody else. I can only remember one or two outages with IT Glue. With Passportal, it gets frustrating when you need to reset a password for a client, and you have to put their global admin address in there because what you're doing requires admin privileges. But you can't get in there because Passportal isn't working, and the password might be a 48-character password. If it's down for five minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes — that's too long. It's a real inconvenience. It doesn't happen all the time, but I've been at this job two months, and it's probably happened three or four times. I don't like this. I'm used to having it right at my fingertips. I need access now. With the influx of tickets coming in and time management, it needs to be like that.
