The best Password/Login/ Encryption Software

I always needed a secure and reliable place to store my entire login, password, form details and the countless stuff like my mail id’s used for all the various web-sites and application including all my purchases and their passwords and account details.

Now, I have been using , lets call it an “xyz-software”, a rudimentary software until recently and have ,since then , migrated to a much more reliable software called “RoboForm” from Siber Systems, Inc.

This is, by far, the best software available out there right now , compared to ‘password organizer’, ‘password safe’, ‘password agent’, ‘Norton Confidential’, turbo password;, etc. etc. , and its FREE.

I have come a long way from the days where I used to store all my identity and password in an excel file. Although using a password, I found it very archaic and cumbersome when I went searching for the row, among the hundred odd entries, that contained my information.

Let’s take a look at what RoboForm has to offer.

RoboForm stores your personal information, including usernames, passwords, account numbers PINs and more, will be secure and reliable without sending out your usage or online history. It forgives you for forgetting your passwords and you will never ever forget another password—RoboForm Pro is an efficient password management system that allows you to quickly launch and sign in to your favorite password protected websites with ease. Some of these sites may include online banking, stock trading, email, shopping sites and more.

The advantages are in abundance but let me show some below.

  • It’s free.
  • RoboForm integrates with just about all the browser’s out there.
  • RoboForm stores almost all that you ever wanted
  • RoboForm can fill in forms that others in the category can only dream about.
  • It allows you to define custom fields to fill
  • It remembers more usernames/passwords than any other.
  • It is very safe and reliable and keeps your data away from prying eyes.
  • Keeps the software well managed and updated and also provides the latest fixes without sending out any of your usage or online activity.
  • Excellent feature list packed with tools that can make you free from all those memorizing useless passwords and creating ‘hack-free’ passwords.
  • RoboForm automatically appears on your Internet toolbar and creates an icon in the bottom tray. Clearly labeled features make this software easy to navigate.
  • Passwords can be both backed–up and restored on your PC or an external flash-disk
  • RoboForm allows multiple people to store sensitive information on the same computer
  • The ‘Safenote’ function is one of the most useful and impressive. The Safenote feature works like a notebook
  • Ease of Installation, once you install you can go online or use the tray icon and start setting up passwords immediately.
  • Last but NOT the least; it includes a ‘password generator’ which will create passwords up to 512 characters long providing maximum security. Don’t worry, RoboForm will also remember your own unbreakable passwords

So go ahead download the free version and start using the software or if you can spare US$ 29.95, go ahead and purchase their PRO version. I can bet you will not be dissatisfied after you get a taste of what RoboForm has to offer. You can see the full feature list here

The online manual included with RoboForm is extensive, helpful and will answer almost all questions. The tutorial begins immediately following installation. I’d recommend taking a few minutes to go through the tutorial, as it will answer many of your questions up front.

RoboForm also offers a FAQs section for your common concerns and an email address to contact customer support. They responded to my emails within hours.
