    I have tried Sticky Password. Quite good, very similar to Keepass but has better browser integration.

    Also comes with a portable version, so you could try that before deciding to install.

    Advantages:

    1. You don't have to remember all your passwords.

    2. Generate secure and strong passwords.

    3. Autofill saves time + easy to manage multiple accounts.

    Try Keepass for a week or so and you will stick with it. It stores all your account info on your Hard Drive in an encrypted database.

    That's why I said "Why bother with Avast PW manager?"

    Way too expensive.

    Ash i think they will release a whole integrated total security suite of some sort. This is just the way kaspersky launched kaspersky password manager and hen pure came out. FYI, guys kasperskky has started releasing ads with Sachin in it. It come in channels like Starworld, Zeecafe.

    Considering that the majority of Avast userbase prefer the free version, it will not have much impact.
    Whereas, Kaspersky has always been a pay-for-use software, I suppose people who would like to have their password manager wouldn't mind paying some more.

    Yes, I read about Sachin-Kaspersky tie-up a long time ago.

    Thanks Ashwin, will definitely be trying the portable version. I haven't even bothered with integrating Keepass with my browser. Plan on keeping KeePass for overall use, will see how Sticky Password performs on my primary machine.
