SealedKeys vs
Every Major Password Manager

SealedKeys Pro is £3.49/user/month. Bitwarden Teams starts at approximately £3.99/user/month and does not include SSO — that requires the Enterprise tier at a higher price. For teams that need SAML SSO (Okta, Entra ID, Google Workspace), SealedKeys works out considerably cheaper because SSO is included at no extra charge in the standard Pro plan.

Not yet. SealedKeys is currently web-only, which is a deliberate trade-off for the launch. The web app works well for sharing SSH keys, API tokens and credentials within a team — use cases where a browser extension adds less value than it does for personal consumer passwords. A browser extension is on the public roadmap. If this is a blocker for your team, Bitwarden's browser extension is excellent and open source.

Yes. SealedKeys has a built-in importer that supports Bitwarden JSON exports, 1Password CSV exports and a generic CSV format. LastPass exports can be imported via the generic CSV path. The importer shows a preview of exactly what will be imported — type breakdown and the first 100 items — before anything is written to your vault. All data is encrypted client-side before upload, so the server only ever sees ciphertext.

The core cryptography layer (PBKDF2 key derivation, AES-256-GCM encryption, ML-KEM-768 post-quantum hybrid) is based on well-audited open standards and Web Crypto API primitives. The full application source is not currently open source. If open source is a hard requirement, Bitwarden is the strongest alternative — it has a widely audited open-source codebase and a self-hosting option.

For UK businesses, the key criteria are usually UK/EU data residency, Cyber Essentials alignment, and supply-chain compliance. SealedKeys hosts exclusively on Hetzner EU infrastructure, holds UK Cyber Essentials certification, and completed a penetration test in May 2026 with zero exploitable findings — making it well-suited for UK government supply-chain work. 1Password and Bitwarden both offer EU regions but only on higher-tier plans, and neither holds Cyber Essentials certification.

Post-quantum encryption uses algorithms that remain secure even against attacks from large-scale quantum computers. Current RSA and elliptic-curve algorithms used in most password managers could theoretically be broken by a sufficiently powerful quantum computer. The 'harvest now, decrypt later' threat is real: adversaries are collecting encrypted data today intending to decrypt it once quantum hardware matures. SealedKeys implements ML-KEM-768, standardised by NIST as FIPS 203, as a hybrid alongside AES-256-GCM. No other password manager at this price point has shipped a NIST post-quantum standard.

Yes. While SealedKeys is built for teams that manage SSH keys and API tokens, the core vault experience — storing, sharing and accessing passwords — is straightforward for any team member. Login credentials, secure notes and card details work exactly as they do in consumer tools. The additional secret types (SSH keys, API keys, recovery codes) are simply extra options; they do not complicate the interface for colleagues who only need standard password storage.

Team admins can remove a contractor's access instantly from the team settings, which immediately revokes their ability to decrypt any shared vault items. Because all secrets are encrypted client-side and the vault key is derived from the user's own master password, a removed user cannot access team secrets — even if they cached data locally. Dedicated contractor offboarding workflows (one-click secret rotation on removal) are on the product roadmap.
