Dashlane vs Bitwarden Pricing: The per-user math changes everything

Published Pricing verified

Dashlane's business Password Management plan costs $8/month per user (billed annually), while Bitwarden's comparable Teams tier is $4/month per user — half the price for the equivalent per-seat business plan. Bitwarden's individual Premium tier, at $1.65/month, is a different product entirely and isn't the right comparison for a team.

Comparing like for like

Bitwarden splits its lineup cleanly by use case: Premium at $1.65/month is built for a single person managing their own vault. Teams, at $4/month per user, adds shared folders, admin controls, and the ability to manage credentials across a small organization. Enterprise steps up to $6/month per user for SSO and more advanced policy controls.

Dashlane's business tier, Password Management, is $8/month per user, billed annually — that's the real, structural equivalent to Bitwarden Teams, not Bitwarden's individual Premium plan. On top of that base, Dashlane sells Credential Protection as a separate $4/month-per-user add-on, layering on dark-web credential-risk detection and phishing alerts built on its Omnix platform. Add that on and a fully-loaded Dashlane seat runs $12/month per user — three times Bitwarden Teams' base price.

Who should pick which

For an individual just protecting their own accounts, Bitwarden Premium at $1.65/month is hard to beat on price alone. For a team, the real comparison is Bitwarden Teams ($4/month per user) against Dashlane Password Management ($8/month per user) — Bitwarden is half the cost for a comparable per-seat business plan. Dashlane's price only starts to make more sense if Credential Protection's dark-web monitoring and phishing-risk features are specifically what you need and you're not price-sensitive at the seat level; even then, at $12/month per user fully loaded, it's still notably pricier than stepping up to Bitwarden Enterprise ($6/month per user) instead.

If clear, predictable per-seat pricing matters most, Bitwarden's ladder — Premium, Teams, Enterprise — is the more transparent structure. If your organization specifically wants Dashlane's credential-risk and phishing-detection layer and is prepared to pay a premium for it, that's the one scenario where its higher price is a deliberate trade, not an oversight.
