Keeper Delivers Affordable Password Protection with Robust Security

Keeper’s robust security features and encryption, complete with cross-platform compatibility and easy-to-use apps, make it one of the best password managers on the market. Its business plans are a strong point and include advanced administrative and automation tools, putting it ahead of most competitors.

While I don’t recommend the free plan, given its significant limitations, Keeper’s paid plans are competitively priced and offer some of the best features I’ve tested.

Keeper’s add-ons do come at a cost, but they offer far more value than most competitors. Instead of limiting file storage to 1 to 3GB, for example, Keeper provides 10GB of encrypted file storage, making it a great pick.

Pros

  • User-friendly, intuitive apps
  • Independently audited security
  • 24/7 customer support
  • Multiple secure password-sharing options
  • Robust enterprise features

Cons

  • Free plan is very limited
  • Some advanced features require additional payment
  • Lacks password importing on iOS devices

In this Keeper password manager review, I’ll explain what makes it one of the best options available for password management for individuals, families, and businesses. Keeper isn’t without its flaws, though, and I’ll also cover its weaknesses and compare it to its top competitors to help you make an informed decision.

In my Keeper review, I’ll cover how it can help you securely store and access your credentials and the advanced features it offers to protect your data. I’ll also analyze the Keeper pricing options that are available and provide detailed reviews of its plans and add-ons to help you decide if it fits your budget.

What is Keeper Security?

Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, Keeper Security is a U.S.-based company. It’s well known for its advanced cybersecurity solutions and the Keeper Password Manager, its flagship product, which offers advanced password management.

Though it has been an established provider for over a decade, Keeper continues to roll out new features to improve the safety and usability of its product. The password manager is known for its freemium, personal, and business plans, which are used by thousands of companies and millions of people around the world, according to the provider.

Is Keeper Password Manager Safe?

Yes, Keeper is a trustworthy, safe password manager, and there is no indication that it has ever been breached.

Keeper has a zero-knowledge architecture and demonstrates its commitment to maintaining the highest security standards by undergoing regular third-party audits of its security.

The provider is FIPS 140-3 and FedRAMP authorized, holds SOC 2, ISO 27001, and ISO 27017 certification, and is GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, GSA, and SAM compliant – ensuring it meets the security, privacy, and regulatory standards needed to protect user data across industries and regions.

How Much Does the Keeper App Cost? Keeper Pricing and Plans

Keeper has options for individual and family use, and scalable business plans. So, how much does Keeper cost? Here’s how its plans compare based on their pricing and most notable features:

Plan Starting Price Features
Keeper Personal $2.92/month Unlimited Passwords, Biometric Login, Emergency Access, Autofill, 24/7 Support
Keeper Family $6.25/month 5 Private Vaults, Folder Sharing, 10GB Secure File Storage
Keeper Business Starter Password Manager $6.25/month Admin Console, Shared Team Folders, Policy Enforcement
Keeper Business Password Manager $6.25/month Advanced Organizational Structure, Delegated Administration, Team Management
Keeper Enterprise Password Manager $6.25/month SCIM Provisioning, SAML 2.0 Authentication, Advanced 2FA, Automated Team Management
Keeper Privileged Access Manager $6.25/month Automated Password Rotation, CI/CD Integrations, Advanced Reporting & Alerts

Keeper Personal – $2.92/month

The Keeper Personal plan provides you with a single password vault designed for individual use, which you can access on unlimited devices and use to store an unlimited amount of data, including passwords, payment options, and addresses.

It offers all the benefits of modern password managers, including accurate auto-filling and biometric logins via face ID or fingerprint scanning. However, you’ll need to pay extra for additional encrypted storage and dark web monitoring, which are offered as add-ons.

Keeper Family – $6.25/month

The Keeper Family plan offers a more affordable way to secure your family’s online accounts and includes five separate password vaults. It includes all the Keeper Premium features and adds 10GB of secure file storage, which you can use to store sensitive documents, such as insurance details and copies of your IDs.

In testing, I found its folder-sharing feature to be ideal for shared use. You can make logins for streaming services and Wi-Fi passwords visible to family members, for example, without cluttering their vaults.

Keeper Business Starter Password Manager – $2/user/month

Keeper’s entry-level business plan, Business Starter, is an ideal solution for teams of five to ten. It lets you enforce company-wide policies, such as a defined password length, and review the security of your team members’ accounts via the Admin Console.

I was impressed to find that each team member also gets a free Keeper Family plan subscription, and I liked the shared team folders functionality, which makes sharing Keeper password vault items a breeze.

Keeper Business Password Manager – $3.75/user/month

The Keeper Business plan adds several team management features, including delegated administration, which lets you assign team leader roles to your employees. As team leaders, they can add users to in-app teams, approve devices, and run security reports to streamline operations. This plan is ideal for small-to-medium organizations and requires a minimum of ten users.

Keeper Enterprise Password Manager – Custom Quote

Keeper’s Enterprise plan builds on the Business plan to enable seamless integration with enterprise systems, making it a great choice for businesses with complex operational needs.

The plan includes advanced two-factor authentication (2FA) with DUO and RSA and introduces Single Sign-On (SSO) SAML 2.0 authentication to provide secure access across platforms. SCIM provisioning is also available to automate setup and updates, simplifying team management and reducing admin.

Keeper Privileged Access Manager – Custom Quote

The Privileged Access Manager plan builds on the Enterprise offering and includes a range of features that are otherwise paid add-ons with lower-tier accounts. Its features include automated password rotation, CI/CD integrations, remote access tools, and advanced reporting and alerts, giving admins granular control over organizational security.

Is Keeper Free?

Yes, Keeper offers a free plan that’s accessible on a single mobile device. However, it’s severely limited, as it only lets you store ten passwords and passkeys and lacks Keeper’s advanced features, such as its strong password generator.

Although Keeper doesn’t have a money-back guarantee, you can try its Premium plan risk-free, thanks to its 30-day free trial. Additionally, its business plans have a 14-day free trial.

How Does Keeper Work? Keeper Security Features

Keeper has numerous advanced features that set it apart from other password management tools. Here’s a quick overview of Keeper’s security features.

Keeper Encryption and Infrastructure

Keeper has a zero-knowledge architecture and protects users’ vaults with AES-256 encryption. This ensures that only the vault’s owner can access it with their Master Password and prevents unauthorized parties from accessing it, even if the vault is extracted from Keeper’s servers in a data breach.

In addition, Keeper uses public key infrastructure (PKI) for secure password sharing and elliptic curve cryptography to encrypt data keys for Single Sign-On logins.

Keeper Password Generator

Keeper has the best password generator I’ve tested this year. It lets you mix and match lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols and use up to 99 characters to create uncrackable passwords.

You can also use it to generate passphrases that consist of up to 20 words, which are more resistant to common password-cracking methods, such as brute-force attacks and password spraying.

KeeperFill Form Filling

Keeper’s auto-fill solution, KeeperFill, performed well in my tests regardless of the form’s length or complexity. From filling common fields, such as usernames and passwords, to automatically entering credit card details and billing address information, I didn’t see Keeper make any mistakes.

The app will automatically save your credentials when you log into websites and apps, and you can update your profile with “Identity & Payments” information, such as your phone number and address.

Password Sharing

Keeper lets you securely share vault items with a shareable link, and the recipient doesn’t need to have an account. Sharing a password vault item will display its title and the website it’s associated with and allow the recipient to access it for a limited time.

Using the Keeper password-sharing feature is far more secure than other channels, such as text messages or emails, and it keeps your passwords encrypted throughout the process, preventing unauthorized parties from intercepting the data.

Keeper Emergency Access

Unlike most password managers I’ve tested, Keeper allows you to give emergency access to your vault to up to five Keeper users. This serves as a failsafe in case you forget your master password or are otherwise unable to access your account. Keeper can also provide you with an account recovery code at your request, which you can use in place of your master password.

Passkey Support

Keeper also supports passwordless logins, giving you an extra layer of protection against phishing attacks and spyware and speeding up the process of accessing your accounts.

Adding passkeys to your Keeper vault is straightforward, and they can be shared like any other vault item, which I found very useful during my hands-on testing. Although the list of websites and apps that accept passkey logins is relatively short, it already includes services like Google, eBay, GitHub, and more.

Secure File Storage

With the Keeper Family plan – or as an individual plan add-on – you can attach documents to your vault items. For example, if you create a vault item for your insurance company’s login information, you can also attach a file containing your insurance documentation for quick access.

I particularly like the fact that you can safely share attachments with other Keeper users – and non-users – while keeping them encrypted. The recipient can then securely access and download the file.

Keeper BreachWatch

Keeper’s BreachWatch feature can help you identify potentially risky passwords in your vault by scanning the internet, including the dark web, for data leaks. If BreachWatch identifies a data leak involving your credentials, it will prompt you to update your details to reduce your chances of falling victim to identity theft.

I appreciated the fact that it’s hard to miss potentially risky passwords in the Keeper interface, as it lists out all your potentially compromised passwords and the vault items related to them.

Keeper Business Functionality

Keeper’s business and enterprise plans offer advanced tools to help you streamline identity management and enhance organizational security. Key features include:

  • Admin Console – Provides centralized control to help you manage users and monitor activity.
  • Policy Engine – Lets you customize and enforce company-wide security policies and rules.
  • SCIM Provisioning – Simplifies user and team setup with automated provisioning.
  • Active Directory & LDAP Sync – Reduces manual effort by automatically syncing users, groups, and roles from your directory service into Keeper.
  • Automated Password Rotation – Lets you automatically rotate credentials for machines and user accounts to improve security.
  • CI/CD Integrations – Keeper integrates with popular CI/CD platforms to support the storage of API keys, tokens, and passwords.
  • Risk Management Dashboard – Offers insights into potential risks and vulnerabilities.
  • Security Audit – Providing you with a security score based on internal and external security standards.
  • SIEM Integration – Integrates with enterprise security systems, such as Splunk, for real-time monitoring.

Keeper Compatibility and Ease of Use

The Keeper password manager apps and browser extensions are compatible with all popular operating systems, and I found them consistently easy to install and use across devices. Here’s what you can expect from Keeper:

Keeper Desktop App

I was impressed by Keeper’s intuitive and easy-to-use desktop apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux devices. The Windows app comes with built-in Windows Hello support, while macOS users can take advantage of Touch ID and the iCloud Keychain for secure authentication.

The Linux version comes with a graphical user interface (GUI) that makes password management simple and is generally similar to its Windows and Mac counterparts. This is notable as not all password managers provide dedicated support for Linux.

Keeper’s desktop apps feature a simple interface, and all the vault management features are easily accessible, while two-factor authentication and emergency access can be reached from the settings tab.

Keeper Mobile App

Keeper makes password management equally easy on the go. Its mobile apps offer all the features found in its desktop apps, with the exception of password importing, which is unavailable on iOS.

I conducted a full Keeper app review and tested its features on Android and iOS devices. I found that both apps are simple and easy to navigate. Swiping right brings up the app’s menu, and you can then access your vault or features like BreachWatch and the Security Audit.

I was also impressed with KeeperFill’s performance on mobile devices, as it’s consistently accurate for both apps and web forms.

Keeper Browser Extensions

Installing Keeper’s browser extension lets you access its features on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave, and Safari. In my testing, I found the extensions worked quickly and reliably. As well as enabling you to autofill your details, they give you quick access to vault item management and the password generator.

You can also access your Keeper web vault without a browser extension. While it’s a quick way to access your vault on any device, it’s not as intuitive as the provider’s apps and extensions.

How Does Keeper Compare Against Other Password Managers?

Keeper’s features, apps, and competitive pricing make it one of the best password managers available, but it faces tough competition. In this section of my Keeper review, I’ll compare it to other leading products, looking at their features and pricing.

Password Manager Starting Price Free Version / Trial Max Devices / Password Storage Audited / Zero Knowledge
Keeper $2.92/month Free plan, 30-day trial Unlimited / Unlimited ✅/✅
1Password $2.99/month 14-day trial Unlimited / Unlimited ✅/✅
NordPass $1.49/month Free plan, 30-day trial Unlimited / Unlimited ✅/✅
Bitwarden $0.83/month Free plan, 7-day trial Unlimited / Unlimited ✅/✅
LastPass $3/month Free plan, 30-day trial Unlimited / Unlimited ✅/✅

Keeper vs 1Password

With features like SCIM provisioning, delegated administration, and compliance tools, Keeper is a more affordable and robust choice for businesses. In contrast, 1Password offers unique features for individuals, including its Travel Mode, which lets you hide your password vaults with just a few clicks. Additionally, unlike most password managers, 1Password doesn’t have any kind of free plan.

NordPass vs Keeper

NordPass uses the future-proof xChaCha20 encryption algorithm, giving it an edge over most competitors, and its apps are easy to install and use. While it’s a better choice for individuals looking for an affordable solution, Keeper is a more attractive option for businesses looking for robust organizational tools and advanced security.

Keeper vs Bitwarden

Bitwarden is an affordable, open-source password manager and is a good choice for tech-savvy users on a budget. Its plans also include encrypted file storage, which Keeper offers as an add-on. However, I prefer Keeper’s apps and its features, such as the password generator. Overall, Keeper is also a better choice for beginners.

Keeper vs LastPass

LastPass may be slightly more expensive than Keeper, but it justifies its price with plans that include dark web monitoring, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and encrypted storage. However, LastPass has suffered major data breaches in the past, making Keeper a better choice.

Customer Support and Keeper Reviews from Users

The quality of customer support is something I focus on when testing and reviewing password managers, as it’s often indicative of a service’s overall reliability and commitment to user satisfaction.

Keeper’s support agents are available 24/7 via its live chat and email channels. Dealing with test queries, I found them to be quick to respond and knowledgeable. I was also impressed with Keeper’s in-depth user guides, which address most of the questions beginners will have about its features.

To assess Keeper reviews left by its long-term users, I checked the provider’s reputation on Trustpilot. Keeper has a positive 3.7 out of 5-star overall rating on the site, with 78% of its 3,000+ reviewers giving it the top score.

The service is impressive. I had a problem with the 2FA and, not even a day later, my problem was solved. Identity verification is priority number one for the customer service, which gives me a safe and comfortable feeling, knowing that my private data is in good hands. Also, the automatic fill function works in 90% of the cases, which is a good number. I fully recommend it.

Keeper review on Trustpilot

Most Keeper security reviews praise its core features, such as auto-filling passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and generating strong passwords. According to the Keeper reviews, the few issues users mentioned were generally quickly resolved by support.

The support I received was truly impressive. The response was not only quick but also incredibly helpful, addressing my concerns efficiently. Amazing service overall.

Trustpilot Keeper user review

Although it doesn’t reflect my personal experience with Keeper’s apps, I noticed several complaints regarding biometric login, especially on iOS devices. Users also pointed out that activating KeeperFill on Linux devices requires more steps than on other platforms.

Bottom Line

Keeper is a strong contender in the password manager market with its feature-rich plans, easy-to-use apps, and cross-platform compatibility. Its business plans are some of the best I’ve tested, offering numerous advanced features to enhance your operations, from SCIM provisioning to delegated administration.

However, there are stronger options if you’re looking for a free password manager, as Keeper’s limit of ten vault items is significantly limiting. It’s also notable that some features, such as dark web monitoring and encrypted file storage, aren’t included with standard accounts. NordPass, on the other hand, has a superior free offering and includes data breach monitoring and secure storage in its basic plan.

Nevertheless, Keeper offers affordable plans and robust security, and it’s definitely worth considering for both personal and business use.
