I use 1Password for personal things, but in trying to set up a shared solution with my wife, I have found that they are not as well suited for group use. They’re getting better, but they’re still not there.

My employer uses LastPass Enterprise, and I’ve helped manage that part of the system for years. In my experience, LastPass is more clunky for things done outside the browser, but they have better browser integration than 1Password. LastPass is also much better suited in an Enterprise environment.

Many people at work use various tools for creating MFA tokens, including Authy, the Google Authenticator app, the Microsoft Authenticator app, etc.... but I primarily use the LastPass Authenticator app.

I have not made any attempt to use 1Password for personal MFA purposes. I am not at all convinced it is well suited to that role, either.

Doesn’t LastPass Authenticator suffer from the same problem? If I understand correctly, they store the MFA secret in the same account — meaning if your LastPass vault is breached somehow, so is your MFA.
