I use 1Password so extensively that the money I paid for it always seemed well spent, if not cheap. 1Password 4 is a big leap for me in terms of usability (vs. v.3): the mini application can be quickly accessed via a key chord, similarly to what you can do within a browser. Very helpful for things like VPN access, encrypted HDs, and other non-web softwares. The security audit is a great feature too: it can tell you where you are using weak passwords, or even repeated passwords. If you have used the same password on many sites, and one of those sites is compromised, you might want to change that password elsewhere, or better, make sure you use a unique strong password everywhere; so knowing what sites could be compromised is a huge help. If you want to feel safe in the web, 1Password's high usability and new features will help you get there. |

In my browsers, 1Password 4 still works less reliably than 1Password 3. Manual completion (I don't use auto competition) sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. In the former case, the user credentials get listed but not inserted. The issues occurs more often in Chrome than in Firefox. It might be just me of course.
In any case, I am already in contact with the great AgileBits support team. AgileBits is one of the companies where your support mails are taken seriously.
