Just to try to give our competitor some advantage, if any one has the feature we want, we will count it as all of them having it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Password manager<\/strong>: This can be a layer on top of user+password. Basically we have a program that will save the passwords for us, and we either copy-paste them or the program copies them for us. Bitwarden, 1Password, Lastpass fall in this category.
