I have 259 employees - DON'T do it. This is terrible. Hope you read this. Wish I did. Also, heads up - 90 days to implement even though sales pushes you quickly. Then, on your own. Oh, but they'll send you their job description on why it's "not their job"...nice. I've worked in customer service my whole life and this is the WORST! We paid $10,000 for 200 licenses in case anyone is researching and makes the dumb decision to move forward. I usually respect negotiation, but clearly should not in this case. Oh, they're going "private" whatever that means.

LastPass lacks any kind of support. Since switching over to a paid customer as a Premium User, I cannot believe I am being treated this way. How many emails does it take for the customer service representative to take my issue seriously? The emails I get from LogMeIn keep requesting the same action: To re-install the LastPass Chrome Extensions in order to fix my login issue. THAT'S IT. They never follow up and never get a response to any of my replied emails. I have opened three cases for the same issue, but no one is following through. As a paid single user, I still cannot use LastPass. If there are no responses, then I like my money back. It's too late to do a reversal on my credit card, but I am so frustrated for not being able to do anything.

I had a great experience with Lastpass in the beginning, and then after buying premium had nothing but problems. I would be on an endless loop of logging in and out of the platform even after clearing my cache. I had bought user licenses as well and they had the same problem. I would be stuck on pages loading for minutes and updated passwords would not sync to other users without me deleting it. I had gone to support a few times and my issue was not resolved. Unfortunately on a year long subscription. Sadly ended up buying a different product even so.

I chose this software as it was highly rated in a magazine. I used it for the trial period and everything went great. I saved several passwords using it. Then I updated to the premier service, but after the free trial expired so I lost all the passwords that were saved. Now that I am on premier, my password does not work. I tried to change it but I received a message that it didn't work so I needed to use another browser to reset the account. I tried on two different browsers and still cannot access my account. The real nightmare is that there is no customer service to call, so no one to talk or write to so I don't get automatically get recharged for a service that does not work and I have no access to! Caveat emptor!!!

I have had Lastpass just about two year. Then I purchased the family plan to be my Wife over. She is using Password Boss. We can only export passwords as a JSON file. Be texting back and forth with LastPass. The support is lacking. Third time asking the same question. I got an email saying they were going to close the ticket. Keep in mind that they never gave me a response. When they finally respond their suggestion was to send my pass list to a third party to have them convert it. Who knows what would happen with my passwords or Identity. Smart a strong suggestion.

I'm a premium account holder. I was lured into paying for the family plan with the understanding that the fee I'd already paid would be applied to the new plan. Instead, I was charged the full price of the family plan, on top of what I'd paid. And to make matters worse, I have no access to the family plan I've paid for. There is no contact number for help or support. After emailing support, I submitted the proofs of payment they asked for. Since then, there's been no reply to the many followup emails I've sent.
The product itself is ok but finicky. I often find myself having to copy/paste passwords for sites/apps that autofill has trouble with, which kinda defeats the purpose. If I hadn't already setup accounts for my siblings and parents, who live in other states/countries, I would've already replaced this product with another password manager. This product is definitely not worth the headache.

I've been using LastPass for a few months on my laptop and iphone and it worked fine for me. Though sometimes it was stupid and couldn't detect when I created a new account on a website and wouldn't save the information (prompt me with a pop up to save it) so I would have to manually save it myself. This lead to a number of irritating situations where I generated some random password just for LastPass to not save that password for the account and of course I didn't memorize or remember it to save it so I'd have to immediately do "forgot password" and reset it again. I just got into the habit of copying newly generated passwords because that continued to happen from time to time.
But once I updated my phone's app today to learn that I could no longer sync between devices I was like, well what's the point? I'm not paying $37/year for something that can be done for free by countless other apps or even Apple keychain. I wasn't using any of the other 'fancy' features, literally just storing passwords and that's it. I switched to Bitwarden instead so we'll see how that does! At least exporting and importing passwords is super easy so it was a quick switch.

Incredibly disappointed with the change to their service forcing users to pay or choose desktop/mobile. I've been using this app for 5+ years, and this will be my last. I originally chose this software because Google Password Manager was lagging behind feature wise, and LastPass was ahead of the game technically and flexibility wise. Now that Google has caught up, I will be using the mobile app to gradually transfer all my passwords before closing my account, thus giving me an opportunity to clean up the years of accumulated garbage that LastPass has offered little tooling to help manage. Their software has recieved minimal updates over the years, and I've encountered a variety of subtle but very irritating issues around both the web and mobile apps. As a developer myself, I find this to be an insult to software as a service. Good luck with it...

Literally making a consumeraffairs account just to vent against the greedy idiots in ownership/directorship/management at LastPass. They gather your passwords and hold them for free then create a paywall to force you to keep using the service. Scummy, but OK; I paid the ransom because exporting is a pain and they'd been a largely fine service. And... My Microsoft Edge browser still isn't recognizing my lastpass premium service despite the logout/login. I paid the ransom. Hostages still not released, but stuck on my phone. Definitely switching ASAP. Good thing you billed yearly for monthly service, Lastpass! Maybe you'll survive as a company to 2023... ;-)

We had been long-time, happy and satisfied users of LastPass for several years. Then last week, we got an email from LastPass, kind of bluntly stating that the free service we’ve been using would be pretty severely limited starting in about a month, so maybe we would want to “upgrade” and PAY to get what seems like a slightly LOWER level of service. I guess the time had come when LastPass needed to get us free users to start paying. Kind of annoying.
Well, if we’re going to have to pay for our password management software, it seemed sensible to us to check out what other companies were offering, something we never even THOUGHT about before. Within a few minutes, I found Keeper. Costs pretty much the same as the 25% OFF LastPass was offering. Recommended ABOVE LastPass by PC MAG.
Keeper had a chat widget right there on their home page (not easy to find on LastPass). So I clicked in, and got a nearly immediate response. I asked, “Why should I choose Keeper instead of sticking with LastPass?” I got an IMMEDIATE and kind of compelling response. This rep knew exactly what his company was offering, and he seemed to know exactly what LastPass was offering. I asked whether Keeper would make switching over easy. I got an IMMEDIATE RESPONSE with a link to a video that showed just how easy it would be. At this point I was pretty convinced to switch, especially considering the slightly disrespectful way LastPass announced these changes.
But I thought it would only be fair to listen to the LastPass sales pitch. So I went to the LastPass website, logged in, and after a good bit of searching, I found a link to chat. What an unmitigated fiasco!! After waiting a long time to get a rep online, I asked this simple question (many times in many ways): Apparently, I’m going to pay someone for this service. Why should it be LastPass instead of Keeper? In a chat conversation that lasted more than an hour, I never got ANY answer to that question. Every response took SEVERAL MINUTES and I never got any closer to an answer.
I did get this: “Unfortunately we do not have knowledge about terms and conditions from Keeper to address them here. Feel free to visit their website to check difference on products.” Do you really want your reps to recommend this? The Keeper rep WAS knowledgeable about LastPass. Of course, I might forgive the LastPass rep for not knowing about Keeper, but she also didn’t tell me ANYTHING about LastPass, not a SINGLE feature that would be added when I started paying for the service. Even the ONE webpage she sent me was about the many features of the free version of LastPass that I’m going to LOSE on March 16, and the additional features they're going to take away on May 17.
REALLY?? Your upselling move made me check out the other guy. Then, in an effort to be fair and smart, I contacted your company in the only way you make available. I asked your representative to give me ANY kind of sales pitch to get me to buy this service from you instead of the other guy. You gave me NOTHING!! You rewarded my fairness with time-wasting incompetence. How is your strategy going to avoid moving a BUNCH of your free accounts over to the competition?? Finally, the rep promised me they would escalate this case, and I would get an EMAIL someday from a supervisor. Do you think I’ll get that email before I’m done switching to another provider? Sad.

The first technical support response to a premium customer would be copying and pasting some general information from their user manual that is not related to the issues, and it usually takes the technical support team a very long time to get back with you. The urgent requests are mostly ignored, and very much you will be on your own once you become a “premium” customer. While LP is a great toy to play with and customize, it’s 99.9% of the time a self-service product. After using the product for 9 years, due to the reliability and accountability challenges that I have been experiencing with the support team to recover my lost passwords, not having a restore capability that the similar products are offering, I’m moving my passwords somewhere else.

Absolutely terrible when making updates. Never works and sends emails to wrong person. Unable to complete simple updates. Tried this app twice in the pass and same issues. Tried updating email address 8 times and had to delete app. You can't recover your info if you forget anything yet when you delete your account it will send it to a wrong email address. Real Secure Right?

I had been a Premium user for many years and did not experience any real issues until this year. I had to contact support twice. The first time took several days and the problem seemingly resolved itself. Currently I am 3 weeks and counting on trying to access my account as I can only login to the app and not the web or Chrome extension. There is usually 2 to 3 days between replies where I am asked to do several things that have not helped. I included a video of the exact issue and it is pretty clear there is an issue on their end of things but no one has committed to fixing this or escalating the issue. It shouldn't take this long to fix in my opinion.

I contacted them and sent a screenshot with the following message: "I just tried to purchase the premium and get the Cyberweek discount, but it's not working." Their suggestion didn't work, "Please try to purchase LastPass Premium on discounted rate using different browsers and check if it is working fine." When I mentioned that, they told me that since the deal was now over, that I needed to pay full price, "I am very sorry to inform you that Cyberweek offer is not available anymore. We will notify you if there is any Offer is availabe in the future. You can refer LastPass current price in the below link." I asked why I needed to pay full price now when I mentioned the issue during the sale, and they still expect people to pay the regular price after they acknowledged having an issue. I'll be looking at alternatives.

We have been using LastPass premium plan for a little while now and the whole point of us taking that subscription is because we have believed it would allow us to send access to different websites to different people without having to reveal the passwords to those people. Thus, helping with our security. Well for the last two days, almost three, it has been apparent that LastPass is revealing passwords to users even when we have specifically chosen not to allow those users to see the password. When the user goes to enter those details, launching the website through the LastPass Vault, it takes them to the website and they can click on a little eye and it will reveal the password that is underlined which is TERRIBLE.
Clearly, the entire opposite of what we are trying to achieve by having paid for a version of LastPass to keep passwords secure. I do not understand what is going on with LastPass. I emailed them, they responded once. I emailed again, NOTHING. I am appalled at this major security breach. There are people out there now who have access to all of our passwords. It has taken us considerable amount of time to go and try to rectify and change passwords but there's no point because now they can see the new passwords. MAJOR SECURITY BREACH. Absolutely DISGUSTED with LastPass and lack of response. The VIDEO will show one of our users and the fact that she can visibly see the password, LastPass needs to get its act together. **

A Microsoft update affected my log ins including my Master Password for LastPass. After trying for days to get into the program and/or reset my password I put in a support ticket. I received automated instructions to reset it such as use your pin code or phone number for a SMS code. Unfortunately, I didn't set those up as I was never required to. The company would do nothing to help and at that point I was told, again by an automated message, that if I didn't set those up, I would have to delete and start over re-entering all my passwords. Now, would I need LastPass if I could remember all the passwords? Of course not. I am confused as to why such a deal breaker isn't built into the set up process. If you can lose everything without a pin and cell phone number why would any service allow you to bypass those contingencies?
I assumed they would send me a temporary password in such situations as every-other-such-service DOES. Nope that might look like caring and they do not do that. Subsequent emails with, I assume, a person - no one in tech seems to know how to use a phone- reinforced their indifference to my plight. "Delete and start over." I did finally get a password to work. So now I WILL start over- with a different service, any service. Even if it's a two cans and a string system. Funny thing is, I was about to pay for pro. Logmein used to be a trailblazing company and watching to see what they were doing next was a thing all people using computers often did. Now they are just sad and self-indulgent. I can't imagine what they are thinking treating their bread and butter end users this way. PMD

LastPass gave no help after I lost all my passwords. The only way to contact is through email. The instructions through the email to retrieve my password were unclear. I asked a geek control friend to help me to explain to me. He went through LastPass steps, put in a password, wrote it down. LastPass went to next step after excepting new password. When we tried to get in using the new password We Could Not. I emailed for help. LastPass response was, "We do not give phone support to customer. Only to administrator/business accounts." I was emailed that I could delete my old account and get a paid account. The ironic thing is LastPass has No Live Support for general paid accounts.

I downloaded the free version (7 day trial) and installed it on my iPhone 6S and the extension in Chrome on my desktop. It all seemed good, and I liked how smooth exporting my Chrome passwords over to Lastpass went. Later that day I changed one of my passwords, and noted that Lastpass picked it up, but, my Chrome password manager did not. I checked other PCs on my cloud, and, of course they did not either. I found no way to make the system update both Lastpass and Chrome passwords simultaneously. I noticed that Lastpass relies mostly on canned Q&A. That, along with the review comments herein, told me not to go with them. Their set up may be perfectly acceptable to others, but I would like my Chrome Password Manager to keep working also, just in case.

I cleared all my cache and cookies on my browser and when I came back on I had to re-enter LastPass username/password to log in again. Fair enough, makes sense. But upon entering the correct email and password, it prompted me to "send me a verification code" via their authentication app. I got NOTHING. I clicked on "send SMS" and got absolutely nothing on my phone despite clicking 20 times and waiting an hour. Yes, that was the exact same phone number I entered into the system when signing up.
I finally found a way to disable this authentication but when I followed the link, it says "sorry, you can't disable authentication via email" - what is the point of even presenting that option then if you can't do it over email... ? Why tell people "click here to disable authentication via email" if it's not allowed? So the entire system is flawed. I can't log in because all my passwords are stored here and it will take a long time going through and resetting passwords for all my 200 websites.
The whole system doesn't make sense. The "SMS code" isn't being sent to the number on file, the authentication doesn't work, they provide an email authentication system that ... apparently also doesn't work. Super disappointed and now have to wait a few days to a week for a response before I can get everything working again.

I have been using Lastpass on my computer with relatively few problems but I cannot use their two factor authentication because their push notification Is sent to a phone number which I no longer use. I have tried over and over again to get them to respond to my request to change the number but their customer service/support procedures are the worst that I've ever come across. Now I have to go through the inconvenience of changing to another provider but first I would like to warn anyone To beware of Lastpass and all the potential problems which you may face. I would also be great anyone could suggest another service to which I can switch.

We have finally ditched LastPass and will never go back. Their service is deplorable. I was all excited to introduce their password service to my wife and boy was that a mistake. After months of trying to get her to be a member it never happened. I paid them for the family plan and since I am a very busy person, every once in a while I would try to get her account setup. Each time we tried there was a problem with her password. The irony is that they are supposed to be experts with passwords.
I reached out to their customer service and we went back and forth for months because I did not have the time to deal with this on a regular basis. They finally added her email as a member but she could never log in because it was like she was stuck in a loop. They would try to reset her password but she could never log in because they could not verify her. It kept asking for her password which she could never get to work. It got to the point that I had to curse at their support which must be overseas for my money back. They refused to give our money back even after I said that I would write a truthful review of our experience all over the web. The bright side of this is that I found a better service called Dashlane. It is way more user-friendly and advanced. Goodbye LastPass forever!

My 6th website I've searched out to tell people to RUN FROM LASTPASS! It is the BIGGEST POS I've ever tried to use. Fills in 1 in 20 forms.... Must sign in at least 3 times on Android and then it more often than not won't fill anything in. Don't give me permissions crap excuses, I'm in IT and know what I'm doing. Also, the UI switch last spring SCREWED even more the usability. You can't freaking find anything and the extension takes up 10 inches of a drop down. You allow your access to 2 of your passwords for that site. As an IT person who manages many many sites with multiple logins...this just SUCKS!

If you have a problem with LastPass - and you will at some point, there is NO customer support - literally NONE. They have a robot that cannot understand even the MOST BASIC question. Any attempt to solve a problem puts you in a circular loop of uselessness. I have used it and my family members. Several times someone has had to delete. Start all over (which means crating a new email account - for starters). Then there are hours of putting in all accounts and passwords - again.

This product does not do what it claims and the validation to get into the account doesn't work at all. I requested a refund a few days after purchase and they refused. The online verification forces you to retry about 5 or 6 times before it works. It offers a secondary protocol through your phone and that never works and you have to reset your master password every time you need to log into your account. None of the online password fill-in functions work until you log into the LastPass website.

I've been a paid Premium user for the last few years. All of a sudden I'm not able to access my vault. It is NOT a password problem. It just won't let me login -- gives me an error message that says "Already login in with a different account. Please log out of other sessions (website and plugin) and try again." But I'm NOT logged in anywhere else, and there's no option to log out of all sessions -- which means I can't login to any of the dozens of password-protected sites and software programs whose passwords are being managed by LastPass. And LastPass has no live support -- only an exasperating bot that tells me over and over how to recover my main password, which is NOT the problem. So the program doesn't work anymore. But this is a program without which I cannot access OTHER programs and websites. Now I am looking for another password manager. My advice is to stay away from this company/software. You will regret using it.
