"1Password has been around for almost two decades, and it's changed a lot in that time. What started as a perpetual license with self-hosted vaults has morphed into a subscription service entirely hosted on AgileBits' servers (1Password's parent company). It's remained resilient in the face of high-profile password manager breaches, due in no small part to its zero-knowledge security architecture, and it has continued to evolve with new features, including Travel Mode, which is quickly becoming one of the marquee offerings."
"Most password managers let you store more than just passwords, and 1Password is no exception. There are presets available for medical records, server information, your bank account, your passport, and so much more. Ultimately, these are all just text fields with a special icon, and you're free to add or remove fields as you see fit. Outside of text, entries in 1Password break down into a few main categories:"
1Password evolved from a perpetual-license, self-hosted model into a subscription service hosted on AgileBits' servers. The service uses a zero-knowledge security architecture that helped it withstand high-profile password manager breaches. Feature set includes passkey support, seamless autofill and capture, Travel Mode, and 1 GB of encrypted storage on consumer plans. 1Password stores varied item types with presets for things like medical records, passports, bank accounts, and server details, and supports identities for automatic form filling. Masked email and virtual credit-card features require additional payment. The desktop experience can present finicky hotkeys and auto-login behavior.
