Keep reading to find out.

What’s the difference between on-premise and cloud password manager?

On-premise password manager is a version of a password manager, locally installed in a company’s server, where all the data is stored and managed by the company itself. The company has to spend lots of time, human resources and money to ensure non-interrupted safety of their data.

A cloud password manager is developed and maintained by its independent creators who specialize in advanced cyber security products. Such off-premise password manager is accessible from anywhere your team works and, most importantly, is guarded against possible data breaches 24/7.

Knowing that, many companies are switching to cloud-based solutions, because it’s the only way to ensure the same-level productivity and security while working remotely.

Why is the cloud a must these days?

In short, because it saves your remotely working team’s time tremendously. Let’s check how.

Access your passwords anywhere you go

All your team members are in quarantine or at least they are advised to work from home? Then they need their passwords even from there. A cloud password manager, freely accessible via the Internet, allows all team members to collaborate on tasks continuously. Increased efficiency and productivity are the outcomes.

Forget all maintenance

Are you constructing “what if” scenarios how you’ll go to the office during strict quarantine for “just a quick fix”? Leave all maintenance to the cloud-based tool provider. Cloud servers are physically secured and maintained without any of your input, without risking your health. Invest that extra time in increasing sales, optimizing your team’s work and concentrating on your main business goals.

Experience new level security

Your on-premise password security is just another task assigned to an IT person in your company? Let your employees concentrate on their own tasks – leave password security to specialists. Cloud password managers are built, developed and perfected for ultimate sensitive data protection. The whole security structure is developed by the full-time high level IT developers and security experts, tested and perfected to stand against any potential data breaches.

Total privacy of your data

Data privacy has great importance in your company? Cloud is here to protect it. Zero-knowledge proof, end-to-end encryption and …. ensures that none of your data can be revealed to anyone except the owners of that data – you and your employees. Neither for cloud password manager creators, nor for the hackers.

Quickly adapting your team to dynamically changing circumstances is a way to survive these challenging times for any business. As more and more teams are switching to fully remote, online ways to work, cloud password managers are the first they migrate to.
