LastPass is one of the most widely used password managers, with plans from small teams to large businesses and features such as dark web monitoring and single sign-on. Wizard Application includes a password vault too, but it sits inside the same workspace as your projects, customers, HR and help desk, and it is included on every plan.
If you are choosing between them, this guide sets out how they compare, where each one is strong, and which kind of business each suits best.
At a glance
| Wizard Application | LastPass | |
|---|---|---|

The web app unlocks the vault on our servers for your session and locks it after 15 minutes idle. | Zero-knowledge: data is encrypted locally on your device with AES-256 |
| Browser extensions | Chrome and Firefox (the Chrome build also runs in Edge and Brave). Fills a matching login in one click, copies usernames and passwords, and locks itself. | Browser extensions with autofill and saving |

| Beyond passwords | CRM, recruitment, HR, projects, help desk, team chat, documents, time tracking and invoicing in the same workspace | Single sign-on for three apps on Business, unlimited on Business Max |
Where LastPass is strong
LastPass covers a lot of ground. It encrypts vaults locally with AES-256, works across browsers, desktops and mobiles, and supports passkeys, 2FA codes and dark web monitoring. Business plans add over 100 security policies, group management, advanced reporting, directory integrations, single sign-on for up to three apps and a free Families account for every employee, and Business Max adds unlimited single sign-on apps and advanced multi-factor options.
Where Wizard Application is different
- No separate bill. The password vault is part of Wizard Application on every plan, so you are not paying a password manager per user on top of the tools your team already uses.
- Credentials next to the work. Logins, API keys, SSH keys and database credentials sit in the same workspace as your projects, customers, help desk and HR.
- Built for technical teams too. Typed entries for SSH keys, environment variables, AWS, GitHub, tokens and databases keep developer secrets out of chat and shared documents.
- One login and one set of permissions. Your team signs in once, with two-factor authentication or passkeys, and the same role-based permissions control the vault and everything else. People joining or leaving are handled in one place.
- Fill logins in the browser. The browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox decrypt your vault on your device and fill a matching login in one click.
Where Wizard Application is behind
We would rather you choose with the full picture. A dedicated password manager does more today:
- Encryption model. Your entries are encrypted at rest and the master password is never stored, so a copy of our database on its own is unreadable. The browser extension decrypts only on your device. The web app, though, unlocks your vault on our servers while you use it, which dedicated password managers do not do. We are moving the web app to decrypt on your device too.
- Sharing. Sharing an entry with a teammate is being rebuilt so that every person has their own encryption keys.
- Fewer features. There is no import tool, passkey storage, 2FA code generator, breach monitoring, emergency access, Safari extension, desktop app or offline access yet, and the extension cannot save new logins.
Which should you choose
LastPass may suit you better if you need admin policies, directory integration or single sign-on, and features such as passkeys, 2FA codes and dark web monitoring across every device.
Wizard Application may suit you better if you want a straightforward team vault included with the software you run the business on, you are already paying for separate tools for projects, customers, HR and support, and you would rather have one platform and one bill.
Moving from LastPass
There is no import tool yet, so entries are added in the Wizard Application vault. Keep LastPass running while your team moves across, then export your LastPass data and store it securely before you close the account.
