I trust their business incentives more than my ability to self-host securely and I value the convenience more than the extra cost.

Everyone shit's on SaaS pricing because, well, for many, many well documented reasons.

But with 1Password, I'm paying $55 per annum for 5 licenses for a product that works exceptionally well. Convenience and security here is absolutely important.

And if it means I can throw a license at my girlfriend who previously had a similar password between banking and her wifi and everything in between. And I can set her up, eat $1 a month on her behalf and EASILY onboard her vs. a stand alone license which is not convenient. You can count me as a happy subscriber. 1Password's pricing is great, and I get an awesome product in return.

I don't get the blind "all SaaS products suck and are dark patterns" vitriol that we see on HN so often.
