Thanks!

I checked out the pricing model and didn't see anything that made sense to me as an individual user. Is there any plan for an affordable individual plan (in the range of 10-20$/ year)?

As a Mac/IOS user, I don't see myself shelling out 60$ for a desktop license and then another 10$ for an IOS license on top of it. I'm sure your profit margin is great, don't get me wrong, but as a buyer that is just overkill.

The individual plan is the lowest cost subscription option, and standalone is an option if you would like to try to spread the cost out between releases, but you would have to pay for any major upgrades as those are not included.

I'd say many people don't need the Pro features in the iOS version, it's possible that maybe you won't either? Depends on how you use it I guess. Probably the biggest reason to get the Pro features is multiple vault support (you can add additional vaults that were created from the desktop versions). With the free version you only get the one vault.

If you use the app like most people, you'll be using it dozens of times a day. Even if it's in small interactions those do add up. I've been trying to convince the team to add some sort of individual statistics that were stored locally for users to see, but I suspect this would probably help you decide that regardless of price it would be worth while :)

In the end, the choice is yours though. We certainly want to hit the price point for all users that we can, but we do have to keep the lights on or the product disappears. We aren't priced at a point where we're trying to acquire users in bulk so we can sell to another company. AgileBits is privately owned and has never taken outside funding. Something to be aware of when you're talking pricing I suppose. At least one factor.

I appreciate the honest response. I couldn't find an easy link on mobile to explain what those Pro features were and it sounds like I don't need them after all. I just need to be able to share a database of passwords between my few devices for personal use.

Purchasing 1Password for 65$ gets the current major release with no updates?

Subscribing to 1Password Families for 5$/month: Lets me sync passwords between all of my desktops and phones? Can I sync an encrypted password database or is this done as a hosted cloud solution by 1Password?

Sorry for the delay in response here. I eventually had to go do some of my regular duties and that meant closing the web browser at some point yesterday :)

$65 gets you a single license for Mac and Windows. This can be installed on multiple Macs or PCs you own, but is generally for 1 single person.

You get all updates to 1Password 6 for Mac for free, and any updates to 1Password 4 for Windows for free. On the Mac side, we are planning a 6.5 release in the next couple months. Most of the changes in this release will center around 1Password Teams/Families/Individuals (the subscription option). Along with bug fixes that likely impact both. We are likely nearing the end of the road on version 6 after that.

With the $5/mo you can technically do two things...

1. You can use the hosted solution 2. You can create local vaults (like the standalone version does) and sync those using Dropbox, iCloud or Wifi (to mobile devices)

So, with the subscription option, you get both. Whether you use the hosted part of it or not is up to you. However, if the subscription goes into frozen state (unpaid) the app will go into Trial mode, which limits you unless you re-subscribe or purchase a standalone license.

I currently use both local vaults and the vaults for my work Team and Family account. Mostly the local vaults are for testing purposes but it all works fine with a subscription.

Let me know if that helps :)

Thanks for the informative response! I may try out the subscription.
