6 LastPass Alternatives for Business (2026)

Short answer: Most teams leaving LastPass are reacting to its 2022 breach fallout (a 2025 class-action settlement and a November 2025 UK regulatory penalty) or to its SSO pricing structure. 1Password fits teams that want SSO and SCIM on one plan; Bitwarden fits budget-conscious teams and those who want a self-hosting option; Keeper fits teams that need FedRAMP-level compliance.

Why teams look for LastPass alternatives

The most cited reason is LastPass's August 2022 breach, in which an attacker compromised the company's development environment and later stole encrypted customer vault backups using a compromised engineer's credentials (LastPass 2022 data breach, Wikipedia, accessed September 17, 2026).

That incident produced two dated, resolved-status consequences. A $24.5 million US class-action settlement was reached in 2025, with a claims deadline of July 2, 2026 (LastPass settlement coverage, Yahoo, accessed September 17, 2026).

A £1,228,283 (about $1.6 million) penalty followed from the UK Information Commissioner's Office on November 20, 2025, for failing to implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures under Articles 5(1)(f) and 32(1)(f) UK GDPR (ICO penalty notice, accessed September 17, 2026). Both matters are closed as regulatory and legal outcomes, not open investigations.

Two smaller 2026 incidents add to the pattern without reaching the same scale.

In February, ETH Zurich researchers published seven attack scenarios against LastPass's zero-knowledge encryption model under a compromised-server threat model. LastPass says it has already fixed the icon-URL handling issue described and has a coordinated migration for stronger cryptographic parameter validation planned for March 2026 (LastPass hardening response, accessed September 17, 2026).

In June, attackers using OAuth tokens stolen from Klue, a third-party sales-intelligence vendor, accessed LastPass's own Salesforce environment. LastPass confirmed the incident did not affect its products, vaults or infrastructure (LastPass Klue breach coverage, accessed September 17, 2026).

Price is the other documented driver. LastPass has not published a dated business-plan price increase, but third-party spend-benchmarking data reports actual SMB customer spend on LastPass rose about 24.55% year over year, against 2.59% for enterprise customers (SpendHound LastPass pricing, accessed September 17, 2026, updated July 14, 2026). That figure is a spend report, not a LastPass-published price change.

None of this erases what LastPass still does well. A Business plan starting at $7 per user per month includes 100-plus security policies, directory integrations with Active Directory, Entra ID, Google Workspace, OneLogin and Okta, and LastPass Families licenses for employees (LastPass business page, accessed September 17, 2026). The vendor also holds ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 attestations.

See the business password manager pricing index for how LastPass's per-seat cost compares across the whole category, not just against the six alternatives here.

LastPass alternatives compared

1. 1Password Business: best for SSO and SCIM without a separate top tier

LastPass reserves unlimited SSO apps for its top Business Max plan; 1Password puts both SSO and SCIM on its single Business plan, the only paid tier most teams need. 1Password Business fits teams that want directory-based sign-in and provisioning without buying LastPass's most expensive tier.

1Password Business costs $8.99 per user per month billed annually (1Password pricing page, checked September 17, 2026).

• SSO and SCIM on one plan: SAML SSO (Okta, Entra ID, OneLogin and Duo) and SCIM provisioning, either through a self-hosted bridge or 1Password's newer hosted Automated Provisioning, both ship on Business.
• Data region choice: customers choose US, Canada or EU (Frankfurt) at signup, a choice LastPass does not document on its own compliance pages.
• Certifications: SOC 2 Type 2 attestations issued annually since 2018, plus ISO 27001:2022, 27017, 27018 and 27701 certification.

Watch out: 1Password does not offer a self-hosting option on any plan, so it does not fit teams that want one.

Moving from LastPass: From the 1Password desktop app, select File > Import > LastPass, enter your LastPass email, and choose the destination 1Password account. An admin option lets you import only folder sharing permissions.

What does not carry over (1Password LastPass import guide, accessed September 17, 2026):

• Passkeys
• Password history for private (non-shared) items
• One-time passwords stored in LastPass Authenticator
• Shared folder permissions for external LastPass users (private folders convert to tags rather than folders)

See 1Password Business pricing explained for the full plan breakdown, or 1Password vs Bitwarden for Business if you are choosing between the two alternatives on this page.

2. Bitwarden: best for budget-conscious teams and self-hosting

LastPass has no self-hosting option at any price. Bitwarden's core server is free and open source to self-host, giving compliance-driven teams control over where vault data lives. Bitwarden fits budget-conscious teams and MSPs that want SCIM on an entry plan; it does not fit teams that require a published support SLA.

Bitwarden's Teams plan costs $4 per user per month billed annually (Bitwarden pricing page, checked September 17, 2026).

• SCIM included on Teams: the same directory-sync feature LastPass reserves for its $7 Business plan and up.
• Certifications: SOC 2 Type II, SOC 3 and ISO 27001, with third-party Cure53 audit reports published through 2025.

Watch out: An August 2026 vendor disclosure required self-hosted Helm chart users to manually rotate an identity certificate that had shipped with a public default password; see our Bitwarden Helm certificate coverage for what is affected. SSO sits on Enterprise only, so a team that needs Entra ID sign-in pays $6 per user, not the $4 Teams rate.

Moving from LastPass: Bitwarden imports directly from a connected LastPass account (enter your LastPass email, or your business's admin credentials) or from an uploaded LastPass CSV export, from the web vault, browser extension, desktop app or CLI. Bitwarden also publishes a dedicated LastPass Enterprise migration guide for admin-led moves.

What does not carry over (Bitwarden LastPass import guide, accessed September 17, 2026): file attachments and Sends must be re-created manually in the new vault, and free Bitwarden organizations are capped at two collections, which can trigger an import error if a LastPass export has three or more shared folders.

3. Keeper Business: best for FedRAMP-level compliance

LastPass lists ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, SOC 3 and Germany's BSI C5 attestation as its compliance set. Keeper goes further: it holds FedRAMP High Authorization, announced in 2025. Keeper fits compliance-driven teams, including government contractors, that need that level of assurance documented. It does not fit teams that want SSO or SCIM on an entry-level plan.

Keeper Business Starter costs $2.00 per user per month for 5 to 10 seats, with no SSO (Keeper's own pricing page renders figures client-side; digits here are corroborated by PAMCost, which verified against Keeper's site on June 26, 2026, checked September 17, 2026).

• Compliance record: SOC 2 Type 2 held for more than a decade, plus SOC 3 attestation.
• Data center choice: US, US GovCloud, EU (Ireland or Frankfurt), Canada, Australia or Japan.

Watch out: SSO and SCIM are Enterprise-only at $6.00 per user per month, while LastPass includes directory integration and a limited number of SSO apps from its mid-tier Business plan, so switching to Keeper does not remove an SSO tax and can move it up a tier. Keeper does not publish a post-cancellation data access or deletion policy on the pages reviewed for this article.

Moving from LastPass: Keeper's desktop app import wizard lists LastPass directly: enter your LastPass credentials, and Keeper pulls passwords, folders, shared folders, templates and custom fields, TOTP codes and file attachments in one pass. A manual CSV path through the web vault is also documented.

What does not carry over (Keeper LastPass import guide, accessed September 17, 2026): hardware security keys, which must be switched to TOTP or another MFA method before migrating.

4. Dashlane: best for built-in credential risk alerts

LastPass reserves its breach and dark-web detection tools, SaaS Monitoring and SaaS Protect, for the $9 Business Max plan. Dashlane bundles equivalent credential risk intelligence into Omnix, one tier above its entry business plan. Dashlane fits teams that want breach and phishing alerts built into the same console as the password manager; it does not fit teams chasing the lowest entry price.

Password Management (Business) costs $8 per user per month billed annually and already includes SSO and SCIM (a March 2026 third-party review, since Dashlane's own pricing page renders figures client-side; checked September 17, 2026).

• SSO coverage: Entra ID, Okta, PingID, Google Workspace and JumpCloud.
• Higher tier for risk alerts: Omnix, which adds Credential Protection, costs $11 per user per month.
• No free tier: Dashlane discontinued its free consumer tier on September 16, 2025, removing the low-friction way small teams once trialed the product.

Watch out: Dashlane's Trust Center did not resolve specific certification names or dates through automated fetch during this research, so treat SOC 2 or ISO 27001 status as not independently confirmed rather than absent. Direct LastPass import does not work for LastPass business users who sign in through SSO.

Moving from LastPass: Dashlane's in-app importer logs into the source LastPass account directly, or accepts a LastPass CSV export. Dashlane also publishes a dedicated "Migrate your organization from LastPass to Dashlane" guide for admins running an organization-wide move.

What does not carry over (Dashlane LastPass migration guide, accessed September 17, 2026): direct import fails specifically for LastPass members who authenticate through single sign-on, who must fall back to the CSV path instead.

5. NordPass Business: best for cost-conscious teams on Google Workspace

LastPass's cheapest plan, Teams at $4.25 per user per month, includes no SSO or directory sync at all. NordPass's cheapest plan, also called Teams, is $1.99 and includes SSO through Google Workspace. NordPass fits price-sensitive teams standardized on Google Workspace; it does not fit teams that need multi-identity-provider SSO or SCIM below the top plan.

NordPass Teams costs $1.99 per user per month, fixed at 10 seats (NordPass's own pricing page renders figures client-side; digits corroborated via checkthat.ai, dated April 23, 2026, checked September 17, 2026).

• Business plan: $3.99 per user per month, with no full SSO published.
• Certifications: ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type 2 (completed December 2023); a 2021 Cure53 audit found 15 issues, including one rated High severity, which NordPass states were fixed and the fix verified.

Watch out: The Teams plan is fixed at 10 seats, so a growing team outgrows it structurally, not just on price. Full multi-IdP SSO (Entra ID, ADFS, Okta) plus SCIM require Enterprise at $5.99 per user per month, nearly three times the Teams price. See password managers for small businesses for how NordPass and other SMB-priced options compare beyond this LastPass-switcher lens.

Moving from LastPass: NordPass's Admin Panel has a direct LastPass import (Settings > Import > LastPass, then sign in with your LastPass credentials) or a manual CSV path, and NordPass publishes a dedicated guide for moving a company's passwords from LastPass.

What does not carry over (NordPass LastPass migration guide, accessed September 17, 2026): file attachments, since LastPass's own export excludes them, and LastPass item categories such as SSH keys, custom items and bank accounts import as generic secure notes rather than their original type.

6. Proton Pass Business: best for privacy and data residency

LastPass does not publish specific data-residency region options. Proton Pass runs its primary infrastructure in Switzerland, Germany and Norway under Swiss and EU privacy law. Proton Pass fits privacy-conscious teams that want infrastructure outside US jurisdiction; it does not fit teams that want a deep, established admin console.

Pass Essentials costs $1.99 per user per month annually with no SSO; Pass Professional, which adds SSO and SCIM, costs $4.49 (Proton's own pricing page renders figures client-side; corroborated across multiple secondary sources per Proton's fact sheet, checked September 17, 2026 and worth reconfirming at checkout).

• Certifications: SOC 2 Type II attestation completed in July 2025, plus ISO/IEC 27001 certification since May 2024.
• Independent audit: a January to April 2026 audit by Recurity Labs covered the Pass desktop, mobile, browser extension and CLI clients.

Watch out: Proton Pass cannot be self-hosted on any plan, even though its client applications are open source. Reviewers on G2 and Capterra describe its organizational and role-based access control depth as less mature than 1Password or Bitwarden.

Moving from LastPass: Export a CSV from the LastPass web vault or browser extension, then upload it in the Proton Pass browser extension under Settings > Import, selecting LastPass as the provider.

What does not carry over (Proton Pass LastPass import guide, accessed September 17, 2026): Proton's own documentation does not state which item types or shared items fail to import, so treat anything beyond basic logins and notes as unconfirmed until verified in a pilot group.

When to stay with LastPass

Staying makes sense for a team already on Business Max with unlimited SSO apps, workstation MFA and SaaS Monitoring configured and working, since rebuilding that setup elsewhere costs real admin time for a feature set LastPass already delivers. It also makes sense for a small team on the $7 Business plan whose stack fits inside its three pre-integrated SSO apps, since that avoids paying for Business Max or an equivalent top tier elsewhere.

Teams whose only concern is the 2022 breach, not a current, unresolved issue, should weigh that LastPass's 2026 disclosures (the ETH Zurich research and the Klue incident) both show a vendor response with a stated resolution path, not silence.

How to switch without breaking things

1. Export a full LastPass vault, including shared folders, before making any account changes.
2. Confirm which item types the new tool's importer supports natively (see each "Moving from LastPass" section above) and note anything you will need to re-enter by hand.
3. Run a pilot import with a test account or a small admin group before migrating the whole organization.
4. Re-create shared folder structures and group permissions in the new tool; imports rarely preserve sharing relationships exactly.
5. Re-enroll any hardware security keys or app-based MFA methods that do not transfer automatically.
6. Set up SSO and SCIM in the new tool and test provisioning and deprovisioning with one real user before the full cutover.
7. Keep LastPass licenses active in read-only mode until every user confirms their vault imported correctly.
8. Schedule the LastPass cancellation and export deadline together, so no one loses access to source data before the new vault is verified.
9. Send users a short, dated notice explaining what changed, where their new vault lives, and who to contact if an item is missing.
10. Revoke LastPass API tokens, browser extension access and any SSO app registrations pointing at LastPass once the migration is confirmed complete.

Bottom line

Switch if your team needs unlimited SSO apps without paying for LastPass's top tier, needs FedRAMP-level compliance LastPass does not publish, or needs a self-hosting option LastPass does not offer at all.

Stay if your team already has LastPass Business Max configured and working, or if three pre-integrated SSO apps on the $7 Business plan cover your actual stack.
