Well, some prefer to avoid the cloud at all.

Not to mention that your Dropbox storage is encrypted... which means that your encrypted 1Password vault is encrypted a second time when stored on Dropbox.

That's great but the ease and time saving of having a password manager pretty much instantly access and input usernames/passwords, credit card, and identity information is invaluable to me. i have one password on my desktop and iphone. i bit the bullet and bought Ver. 7 last year.

Deus,
Actually, it is needed for my workflow. The primary location for the vault is my home machine. I access the data on a second machine and an iPad at home. I access the data at my office on two different machines and I access it on an iPhone at home, at my office and when I am out and about. Dropbox is the easiest, most effective solution for syncing across all the devices all the time.

I keep my user name and password on a post it note attached to my monitor.

no kidding, when I was house shopping, one guy had 4 monitors and he had brother labels with username and password for his trading accounts, one label for each monitor. IIRC he also had the trading house printed on the same monitor.
I hope he had 2FA enabled, or some other protection in place.

Hi everyone,
Dropbox offers Dropbox Password. Seems like it's a logical option to check out since I am a subscriber. Not so much to replace 1Password6 right now but as a backup in the event I have an issue with it and/or choose not to move to 1Password7 since it is subscription only.
