(Personal Opinion): I'm gonna vouch against 1Password.

Some months ago I tried migrating from LastPass to 1Password, had a lot of headaches with the >having to run an executable in the background< as well as the horrid UI on the control panel.

During testing, I was also constantly being prompted to pay for the thing, (trial was just started!). At least importing worked (kinda, some non-form fills [CC, SSN] didn't import or just would get dumped on random places all over their UI).

The key-management thing they have for the safe is really annoying, having to keep a big string around whenever you need to log in somewhere real quick just doesn't work. (One thing is having OTP codes on your phone, other is needing to type a big, random, safe unlock string).

With that said, due to this acquisition of LogMeIn, I'll be looking into alternatives (Mainly Bitwarden as it's been in the "market" for a while already and seems to be recommended). Probably not gonna move yet but better be prepared.
