Reasons to Switch

Things to Consider

  • !Switching to KeePassXC may involve a significant migration effort, as users will need to export their passwords from LastPass and import them into KeePassXC, which can be time-consuming and may require troubleshooting.
  • !KeePassXC has a steeper learning curve compared to LastPass, especially for users accustomed to the convenience of cloud-based services, as it requires more manual management of password databases and may lack some user-friendly features.
  • !While KeePassXC offers strong security features, it does not include built-in cloud synchronization, meaning users will need to set up their own methods for syncing across devices, which can be less convenient than LastPass's seamless cloud integration.
