NordPass: when it makes sense.
NordPass makes sense for an affordable, simple manager; for free multi-device or open source, another solution fits better.
Keep if
You want a simple, affordable manager.. You're already in the Nord ecosystem.
- You use it at least once a week
- The monthly cost (€2) is small next to the time it saves you
Challenge if
You need free multi-device use.. You want self-hostable open source.
- You use it less than once a month
- A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
