Well, 1Password must be feeling pretty sour about how Apple Passwords app is a complete 1:1 clone.

They don’t do licenses, credit cards or ssh keys yet so we probably won’t switch… yet

More importantly - it doesn't work on anything but apple hardware.

yeah, but at least it's not an Electron app

Think the backlash regarding 1password’s electron implementation is overblown. I’ve not had any issues with it

They have said it will work on Windows with iCloud desktop app installed.

It does indeed work on Windows.

1password's biggest clientele use Team accounts. Does Apple support that?

The second sentence invalidates your first - there's a lot of things it doesn't do compared to 1Password.

However it also doesn't randomly crash or simply refuse to autofill in Safari, so, I already switched.

It also doesn't do half the shit Keychain Access did other than hold onto passwords. At least they didn't rip it out of the OS altogether, it's in /System/Library/CoreServices/Applications now.

Well I've decided not to renew 1password. I have very basic use cases, and am happing to stay within Apple eco system. So, to me, 1password is just too much money.

I agree with you, our small business pays around $1200 per year for 1Password for a handful of users.

Apple passwords doesn’t have to be ABSOLUTELY AMAZING to make financial sense to us, it just has to work well enough where previously we didn’t really have any free options we liked.
