What It Is

Keepasser is a hosting and collaboration platform for KeePass databases. It does not create a new password vault; instead, users upload an existing KeePass database and open it in KeePass via a URL. This preserves KeePass’s master-password encryption model while adding sharing, permissions, and backup capabilities. The text emphasizes that the database file remains encrypted by the master password: the platform does not ask for the master password and cannot read the passwords inside the vault.

Core Capabilities

In terms of protection features, Keepasser mainly covers password-vault hosting, access control, encrypted transfer, and backup/recovery. For access control, it can determine whether members are allowed to open or save a database, and it supports time-limited access for temporary roles such as interns. Some members can also be allowed to manage, create, or archive KeePass instances. For backups, the system backs up databases daily to an external location, keeps backups for one week, and can restore them within minutes if needed. Its integration capabilities appear lightweight: it mainly works with the KeePass client through database URLs, and there is no visible information about API, SSO, directory-service, or SIEM integrations.

Pricing and Who It’s For

Pricing is very straightforward: €4/month when paid monthly, or €40/year when paid annually, saving about 17%. A 7-day trial is available with no credit card required. The plan includes unlimited collaborators and unlimited database updates. Keepasser is better suited to individuals, small teams, friend groups, or small organizations that want to keep using KeePass while adding multi-user sharing and backups. For larger enterprises, the text does not disclose compliance certifications, SLA, audit logs, two-factor authentication, or enterprise support capabilities, so it should be evaluated with caution.

Pros and Cons

Its advantages include low migration cost, transparent pricing, support for unlimited members, basic read/write permissions, daily off-site backups, and the fact that it does not possess the user’s master password. The drawbacks are also clear: backups are retained for only one week, limiting long-term recovery; compliance certifications, data center locations, payment methods, and support channels are not specified; and common enterprise features such as alerts, auditing, and SSO are missing. Overall, it looks more like a lightweight collaboration layer for KeePass than a full enterprise password management platform.

Access from China and Alternatives

The text does not provide information about access from mainland China, payment support, or node locations, so its availability in China is unknown. If access or payment is restricted, alternatives to consider include Bitwarden, 1Password, Keeper, Passbolt, or a self-managed setup using KeePassXC together with WebDAV/SFTP/cloud-drive synchronization.
