Based on my rigorous testing, I was able to narrow the list down to the five best password managers that excelled across all of my testing criteria. I tested a dozen of the most popular password managers on the market and evaluated everything from encryption to pricing, features, platform compatibility, privacy policies and company history.

Bitwarden is currently CNET's top pick for the best password manager, thanks in part to its commitment to transparency and its unbeatable free tier. So if you want a safe and convenient way to remember them all, you should invest in a trustworthy password manager. But remembering dozens of complex and unique codes for every website and service you use is a serious headache. It's never a good idea to use the same password for all of your online accounts.
