Bitwarden and Dashlane are competitive when it comes to core features like unlimited password storage and a seamless user-friendly interface. But Bitwarden goes the distance with integrations, top-tier security that’s audited in an open source environment, and unlimited passwords (compared to Dashlane’s max 25-login free plan). Users choose Bitwarden over Dashlane because of its user-friendliness, advanced encryption, multiple MFA options, and comprehensive high-quality features. Bitwarden delivers more at a similar price point. ## Bitwarden vs Dashlane enterprise feature comparison | Features | Bitwarden | Dashlane | | --- | --- | --- | | Open source trust and transparency | ✓ | - | | Largest global community of all major password managers | ✓ | - | | Support for over 50 languages | ✓ | - | | Self-host option | ✓ | - | | Robust user permissions | ✓ | - | | Data Privacy Framework compliant | ✓ | - | | Enterprise policies | ✓ | ✓ | | All vault data is end-to-end encrypted | ✓ | ✓ | ### Perché milioni di persone si fidano di Bitwarden **Standard di conformità internazionali** Bitwarden soddisfa e supera i principali standard di sicurezza e protezione dei dati. **Crittografia zero-knowledge** Solo tu puoi accedere alle tue informazioni. **Community online attiva** Oltre 100.000 membri della community su GitHub, nei forum Bitwarden e su Reddit. ## Compare Bitwarden vs Dashlane in-depth ### Bitwarden vs Dashlane - Open source trust and transparency **Bitwarden**is completely open source, and is reviewed by experts to ensure continuous improvement as cyberthreats become more sophisticated. Bitwarden also offers a bug bounty program, encouraging users and security experts to report and remediate bugs—which results in a better overall experience for everyone. **Dashlane** is only open source for mobile app (Google Play Store), not the core source code. ### Bitwarden vs Dashlane - Largest global community of all major password managers **Bitwarden** has the biggest global community compared to other password managers, fostering collaboration at every step of the password management and data security process. **Dashlane**has an extremely limited global community compared to Bitwarden. ### Bitwarden vs Dashlane - Support for over 50 languages **Bitwarden**offers services across 50+ languages and continues to expand its translation efforts to support more global businesses. **Dashlane**only supports 11 languages, making it less accessible to the global audience. ### Bitwarden vs Dashlane - Robust user permission options **Bitwarden**offers more premium features, supporting user permissions across the invitation, membership, and group view panels. Security can be further enhanced by self-hosting, if the user chooses. **Dashlane**is incredibly limited when it comes to user permission options, especially compared to Bitwarden. ### Bitwarden vs Dashlane - Data Privacy Framework compliant **Bitwarden** is one of the most compliant password managers available to date and is approved by several data privacy frameworks. These include AICPA SOC2 Type 2, GDPR, CCPA, and EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework(s), respectively.   **Dashlane**is not Data Privacy Framework compliant, limiting its application and functionality for certain user classes.  ### Bitwarden vs Dashlane - Self-host option **Bitwarden’s** self-hosted option is available from its free password manager tier, and remains compatible across Linux, MacOS, and Windows devices. Many appreciate this, as self-hosted solutions are typically at less risk for a data breach or security crisis.  **Dashlane** does not currently have a self-hosted option. ## What does the Bitwarden community say? "...the one thing users should consider when using a password manager is, what is happening underneath the hood. Here is where Bitwarden wins. Their open source model is available for scrutiny by security experts and the community, this removes any worry that something egregious is happening within the Bitwarden company and allows the community to come together and find potential security risks." **- Oscar G** ![g2-5stars](https://bitwarden.com/assets/iPla6oELdoNN0SXGgFCWW/b8d2423cdb18c1328d78fc107fce6ded/g2-5stars-padding.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) "We had a problem with a user who lost access to his vault because he lost his mfa tokens on his mobile, and in less than 3 emails and 20 minutes we had regained access thanks to Bitwarden's support." **- Juan Manuel B** ![g2-5stars](https://bitwarden.com/assets/iPla6oELdoNN0SXGgFCWW/b8d2423cdb18c1328d78fc107fce6ded/g2-5stars-padding.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) "Bitwarden stands out in the Password Management product market on several levels that make it the number one choice, in my opinion, for enterprises, small businesses and families alike. The ease of implementation, integration with Single Sign On and Windows Hello are just the beginning... The ability to sync Passkeys across all device types is unique to this product and makes end users lives MUCH easier. Administrators are also in control with it's integration in to Entra ID nad SEIM support." **- Brett M** ![g2-5stars](https://bitwarden.com/assets/iPla6oELdoNN0SXGgFCWW/b8d2423cdb18c1328d78fc107fce6ded/g2-5stars-padding.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ## The trusted open source password manager as seen on: ![NewYorkTimes-horizontal](https://bitwarden.com/assets/U9wg58h8O46EDjcwPViTY/02347692487fb01b852c8125f7d43704/NewYorkTimes-horizontal.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ![PC mag](https://bitwarden.com/assets/71eRizEv1reOTLAt1n6JMk/bded1a92a40b529d962cb40e1048e934/PC_mag.png) ![icon-wired-logo-black](https://bitwarden.com/assets/g1hfJu73wCE84g4mjEJ5P/0192e39bf572af688782f400346a65a6/icon-wired-logo-black.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ![techradar-black](https://bitwarden.com/assets/2kvxGr5YctisoiivJmGRuX/5de87571de9aa562f6e8c36fd806a447/techradar-black.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ![fast company logo png version](https://bitwarden.com/assets/56pNbsBt1xSHhAtYUf2T9J/1d94436c510943bb8ab9b86edca547a6/fast-company-logo-vector.webp) ![Best open-source manager](https://bitwarden.com/assets/2uQP8mJRAqcQj7zPQM0jcZ/4a7e7dbbc7ff4041a09e16ab9f81b33e/techrepublic-logo-vector.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ![macworld-Media-Spotlight](https://bitwarden.com/assets/1WpoNj1IlQNCGFaNfafp4j/b2505a56ea0375e6e843b3400ebf439d/macworld-Media-Spotlight.png) ![newsweek-Media-Spotlight](https://bitwarden.com/assets/2G2scsv1kqGdCAjwajniTl/b5265a015a1bf9c83f4b0d549a91da35/newsweek-Media-Spotlight.png) ![ ](https://bitwarden.com/assets/1No9Q1FzvHGz3LkSkFLaRE/596fa7f90211b1d8e5c2a14204ec226f/cnet-red-square.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ![readers-digest-logo](https://bitwarden.com/assets/90L4iPwHQukex76kNUApJ/9c9dc132c89d0ecc8060d792543fefa6/readers-digest-logo.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ![android-police-Media-Spotlight](https://bitwarden.com/assets/5bxa0e7esbbBo04VzJN4Ox/1798bdb8a73b6856b7ef3b57fac8f149/ap-logo-full-colored-dark.svg?fm=png&w=800&q=90) ![cnbc select logo](https://bitwarden.com/assets/4AfT3rXRvlZHzZS83Glhw4/20b876621cb381e47ec44de2a0272e93/cnbc_select_logo.png) ## Bitwarden vs Dashlane pricing | Plan type | Bitwarden (prezzo per utente) | Dashlane (pricing per user) | | --- | --- | --- | | Fully featured free plan | ✓ | - | | Enterprise free trial | ✓ | ✓ | | Individual (premium) | **$1.65 / mo** | $4.99 / month + add-ons | | Families | [Embedded content price] / mese | $7.49 / month + add-ons | | Teams | **$4 / month** | $8 / month + add-ons | | Enterprise | [Embedded content price]**/ mese** | $11 / month + add-ons | ## Scegli il piano più adatto alle tue esigenze ## Personale ### Hai appena iniziato? *Ottieni una gestione di base delle password oggi stesso.

Log in to your Dashlane account.  2. Click on the **My Account**dropdown and choose **Settings** from the menu. 3. Click **Export Data** from **Settings**.   4. Click **Export to CSV** and save your file.  5. Save your .zip file to your preferred location, and unpack it to view your multiple .csv files exported from the account.

Business. 3. Business Plus. 4. Enterprise. With this itemized division of plans and auxiliary features—such as their overall password health score perk—many users feel that Bitwarden offers better value with a simplified structure.  Unlike Bitwarden, Dashlane offers no transparent, advanced saving opportunities for companies with 50+ employees, relegating users to choose the unexplained Enterprise tier—which may not fit their needs or budget. Additionally, the service does not offer as wide a range of support (compared to 24/7 Bitwarden support), nor is it truly open source. The only framework currently available for Dashlane that is “open source" is for their Google Play Store app—not the core source code itself. This stands in stark contrast to the Bitwarden open source nature and transparency. ### How does Bitwarden mitigate vulnerabilities compared to Dashlane Security? Bitwarden maintains an open source approach, constantly refined by users, developers, and security specialists globally. This collaborative approach holds integrity high, proactively identifying new opportunities for an even better outcome, update after update. Dashlane lacks this global network of support, as its code has a murky classification (only the mobile app is open source)—and some critical Dashlane-specific elements have been removed, per TechCrunch. In addition to salted hashing and advanced AES-256 bit encryption, Bitwarden engages experts who conduct ongoing reviews from the dedicated Bitwarden user community. This impressive list of third-party security auditors include  - HackerOne (crowdsourced ethical hacking) - Insight Risk Consulting (penetration testing) - Cure53 (source code audits).  See [bitwarden.com/compliance](https://bitwarden.com/it-it/compliance/) for a full list of Bitwarden security and compliance materials. ### Does Bitwarden offer advanced 2FA, unlike Dashlane? Unlike Dashlane’s two types of two-factor authentication, Bitwarden offers several advanced multifactor authentication (MFA) methods: - Company-wide Duo Security with Duo Push, SMS, phone call, and security keys - Individual use of Duo Security and TOTP codes - YubiKey OTP (any 4/5 series device or YubiKey NEO/NFC) - Hardware security key (FIDO2 Passkey) ### What to look for in a Dashlane alternative As you search for password managers, consider the suite of features Bitwarden offers. [Users love Bitwarden ](https://bitwarden.com/it-it/bitwarden-vs-dashlane/)because of its comprehensive features—many of them from the free plan onward.  Features to look for include:  - A secure, open source structure that prioritizes transparency and security. - Compliance with all major frameworks, including the Data Privacy Framework, GDPR, and others. - Self-hosted options for maximum security and control. - Support for over 50 languages. - Clear, straightforward, value-based pricing.
