The vast majority of websites and services we use today require us to register to take advantage of their benefits, which is undoubtedly a significant headache for many users. Not because of the registration process, which takes just a couple of minutes, but because we must remember which email account we have associated, which password we have used, etc.

Luckily some developers have taken note of this, such as Dashlane, who offers us a platform specially designed to store all our records on different websites, social networks, and others, forgetting this information.

Operation

Dashlane is a program that works as a safe for all our records and also installs in just a couple of minutes on our computer, allowing us to save time after that. The application has three sections that we could consider the main ones: Personal data , Internet accounts, and Internet purchases .

As you can see, it is not only a system for keeping our user accounts and passwords to access different services, but it will also give us a hand when making purchases via the web. In the last of the previous sections, all the payments we have made from the computer are saved from having them at hand when we need them.

Of course, security is an essential aspect of this type of proposal, and thanks to the Security Dashboard system, we can set the levels of protection we want for our computer. This functional section, so that it can measure the difficulty of the passwords we use on websites or social networks, redomendándonos that we look for safer alternatives if necessary.

Even if you are one of those users who have trouble setting complex or lengthy passwords, you should know that this will no longer depend on you since Dashlane can generate passwords randomly, saving you this trouble. And since the program itself will remember them, your intervention is almost null.

Also, the creators of this application assure us that all our data is entirely secure since the information is sent between the computers and the servers in encrypted form through the AES-256 encryption protocol. If we add that the master password is known only to us and is not stored anywhere else but on our PC, we can sleep easily about our accounts.

Even if you want to access it from another computer or the web, you must first authorize access to the software directly from the email address you used for your profile. In other words, there is almost no chance a cybercriminal can access your passwords for social networks, online payment sites, etc.

And if everything else doesn't convince you, you should remember that this app can monitor all the content found on the dark web, looking for some that may be related to you. If it detects data about you going around the Internet, it will quickly warn you so that you can take the necessary measures.

Please note

There are some requirements you should consider when installing and running Dashlane on your computer, which have to do with updating your browsers and creating a user account. Otherwise, you will not be able to use this program which, although it offers some of the above functions only in its paid version, has a meager cost for everything it offers in terms of security.

As far as the user interface is concerned, we have found that we liked it a lot since it is not only aesthetically pleasing to the eye but also finding its primary functions is not difficult. And to that, we must add that it is fully translated into other languages.

The best

There are so many virtues of this software that it would be difficult to mention just some of them. Still, to say the ones that have caught our attention, we can refer to the high level of security it provides, the simplicity of navigation between its menus, the possibility of classifying passwords as we consider appropriate, or, why not, to its random password generation system.

The worst thing

As for the weak points or possible criticisms we can make, in our opinion, the only important one has to do with specific performance problems we have observed when synchronizing it with Chrome. Failures that we are sure will be solved sooner rather than later but that today are there.

Rating

Although we can rarely make such an assertion, we believe that Dashlane is a program that all those users who occasionally forget their password to access a service or website should have installed on their computers. It offers so many functions, it is so easy to use, and the cost of its Premium version is so affordable that there are few better alternatives in this competitive segment.
