LastPass is more than just a password management solutions. With the Teams features, as administrator, I was able to add every new employees, share passwords related to their specific departments, all this via a secured interface. What we were previously doing via email, as which was at risk in case that email account was accessed or hacked by a 3rd party, LastPass simply eliminates this issue. Each employee also had his own private vault, for saving his passwords and sensitive information. Best of all, the digital records features, unique to LastPass, allowing storage of credentials like software licenses, and Wi-Fi specific passwords.

All this making LastPass an enterprise-grade business IT security provider.
