We are getting ready to roll out lastpass to our 20,000 students, faculty and staff.  Not to hijack the thread, but 
does anyone have any information on how they evangelized this to the population.  Also do any of you have a policy on 
the sharing of passwords.

Best!

It’s really not so much about price as it is the 100% increase every year.  I don’t want to keep paying for something 
that increases that much every year.  If it works out that LastPass is still the best option for our requirements, 
we’ll continue.  I appreciate all the feedback from everyone so far, just want to make sure we are investigating all 
options!

If price is a concern, I am curious if you have investigated into

Built by an Australian software development company that began back in May of 2000 and I really admire their 
transparency<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.clickstudios.com.au%2Fabout-us.aspx&data=02%7C01%7Cgwillia5%40UCCS.EDU%7C97cf1e06a3e94154cfa308d69b610c0b%7C529343fae8c8419fab2ea70c10038810%7C1%7C1%7C636867238460059465&sdata=flUIu8cxBil4SgRShG5yoyE0RNAMBqRC2jRv3UYD2pY%3D&reserved=0>
 - Click Studios.

Their pricing maxes out at $5,700 at time of email (once off cost) for unlimited users.  Beyond that, yearly upgrade 
protection is $1,140.

The pricing and yearly upgrade plan decreases in pricing if less users. If not checked into, they have a free demo for 
up to 5 users. Not a bad option to save! Still has your typical PAM features and more..

IWU is in the beginning stages of implementing Keeper Security.  One of the reasons we choose it was the price point.  
About 48$/yr/usr and we are only using in IT for now.

Looks like this topic hasn’t been discussed in a while (~2 years).  We *have* had around 100 users in LastPass 
Enterprise for our IT department for the past 4 years.  This is the 4th year in a row that the price has increased 100% 
year over year.  It was $8/year/user 4 years ago.  So over 4 years $8*2*2*2 = ~62/year/user today.  What is everyone 
else using these days?  Are you using DUO with it as well?  Thanks!
