Upgrading RoboForm from v6 to v7: worthwhile?
40hz:
@BethUK: Thx for suggesting Password Depot. I took a quick look, and that might just be the thing to lure me away from my old fav Keepass. Have to download it and give it a trial.

Note: I just noticed there's a version available for the iPhone. Its currently listed as being free over at the AppStore. Not much info provided other than a brief description. Wonder if it syncs with the desktop version?
Beth UK:
I'll try! Password Depot is a desktop password application made by AceBit. It's not new, but it is regularly updated. I have run it alongside Roboform and LastPass and keep returning to it as my preferred password app.-Beth UK (December 22, 2010, 11:29 AM)

Thanks! Is it "limited" to passwords? The key feature of RoboForm is its ability to fill in forms, not just store passwords. For "just" passwords, I use KeePass, which is free, and can fill forms as long as you tell it how beforehand (I haven't tried the addons for formfilling as such). I presume you've tried KeePass and prefer Password Depot?

I use it for all online log-ins so it'll remember your username and password and other fields too :)

Sounds good :) It's time Siber Systems had some competition ;)
Just noticed it's not a lifetime license, but the now-common major version type:
The price includes free upgrades to interim releases (e.g. from 1.0 to 1.3).

Well, at least you'd know that going in.
Cloq:
It seems Wilders Security forum has a Roboform thread. Link
Darwin:
BTW in a fit of magnanimous stupidity, and in the spirit of "supporting development", at some point early in the beta testing cycle I bought a license for Goodsync Professional. Two issues arise from this: first, when I bought the license I was under the impression that I was getting lifetime updates upgrades (whether this was explicitly stated somewhere or whether it was a response to a "we haven't charged for upgrades in years" blog or forum post, I can't recall) and second, are they going to pull the license switching stunt with it as well? Also to note, with the beta a freebie version of Goodsync was included with the install and was sufficient to synchronize Roboform databases between machines/drives/and the cloud, use of Roboform Everywhere now requires a paid installation of Goodsync (though I've just failed to find the reference, so I may be out to lunch).-Darwin (December 18, 2010, 08:44 AM)

Update: I was just prompted to update my GoodSync installation and noted that there is a beta for GoodSync 9 available. Note this at the bottom of the page:
Pricing
* Ver 9 beta is free for ver 8 users.
* When ver 9 comes out as official release, there will be lower upgrade price for existing users.
