What is your opinion on password managers?

I have been getting a lot of ads for password managers and they seem super convenient but what do you think?  Is it a risk to use them?

I have in past used the Dashlane which is a good piece of software. I have also made use of the lastpass. I think for most of the chrome operations I make use of the lastpass and it works out for me. And as for the dashlane, I'd say considering they are business and have limited amount of the free plan usage. But it works out just like lastpass if you want simple feature of password management.

I don't use them. Not because I don't trust them or anything - but because it's right at the bottom of my list of priorities. I think it'd take a while for me to set up - and I'd much rather use the time on all kinds of other things.

I don’t use Password Managers but I do create a good, strong password. I’m not against Managers; I just have never used one so am honestly intimidated by how they work. Plus, is there a fee? Is it worth the extra layer of security?

Why should I use a password manager when I can save it on my browser? Well, someone can say your browser-saved password can be easily stolen. But then is there a guarantee that the password manager does not leak my password? I have never used it and I will probably not use it.

I don't have any use of password manager. I can manage my own password very much well and I have a pretty strong password that's 17 digits long mixed with numbers and symbols. I'm 100% good.

I use a password manager at my own convenience. It's just easier to have your passwords all saved to one app than to write them down or have to save them from one browser to the next. I like the organization and flexibility of password managers. I beef up the security of my password manager account as much as possible to keep it protected.

I quite enjoy them.  I now use much stronger passwords and every site has a different password now.  Pairing that up with Privacy.com's virtual payment cards, I never worry about data breaches and such as all my important data is unique to each site anymore,

I’ve heard of a password manager called LastPass. There’s multiple options on the market and it really depends on your personal preferences. Some people can remember their passwords, but these services are best used for people who use 16 characters plus randomly generated credentials

If someone is making use of a randomly generated passwords, the person definitely needs to make use of a password manager because there's no way the person can remember the pass on his own. This is why I don't make use of randomly generated passwords. Even though my password is long, it's something I can remember if you wake me up from sleep immediately.
