    Dashlane: when it makes sense.

    Dashlane makes sense for a complete manager (passwords + VPN + dark web); for free or open source, another solution fits better.

    Keep if

    You want to centralise and secure your passwords.. You value a VPN included in the subscription.

    Dashlane becomes worthwhile when
    • You use it at least once a week
    • The monthly cost (€4) is small next to the time it saves you

    Challenge if

    You want a free manager (Dashlane no longer has one).. You want self-hostable open source.

    Dashlane becomes too expensive when
    • You use it less than once a month
    • A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
