Our verdict

Password Safe is suitable if you want a clear local safe and do not need an extensive online collaboration. You keep one database as a starting point and can include it in your own backup plan. For a fixed desktop, this can be a clear way of working.

The responsibility for availability lies with you. Make sure you know which database is the latest and how to open a copy when your computer fails. Test that before you become fully dependent on the vault. Anyone who wants to switch between phone, browser and multiple computers effortlessly should check in advance what additional apps and actions are needed for this.
