3 years agoFormer Member A bit of background. I have worked in the tech (computer) environment since 1958. I have had PCs since the introduction of the IBM beast in 1985 and have used various spreadsheets since that time. Currently Excel, from the time it was introduced. I use Excel to capture all information about web sites needing passwords. And in a secured home environment behind firewalls to protect from intrusion. This activity started before I subscribed to 1Password.
It was April 2014 when I subscribed to 1Password … 1Password 3 for Windows v1.0.xxx. With my annual subscription, I have upgraded over the years and I am running current versions on my PC, iPad and Android phone … all well protected.
I can fully understand the two rating algorithms but was having difficulty maintaining a “Fantastic” rating with the various passwords I have with my ISP - Bell Canada. Yesterday, I stumbled on the procedure to use in order to maintain the “Fantastic” rating. All is well in my world. :-)
I have full faith in 1Password … best in class in my opinion. Using Excel to keep information handy is a form of backup.
