nice that it is now integrated with mobile devices....been using it on desktop for years
Used DG since its early days, very happy with the product and the continuing upgrades!
I have been using this and its predecessor, Password Retriever, for more than 6 years. I would not be without it.
As an elderly computer user I have found DataGuardian a wonderful memory assistant. Thanks, Jim
Koingo's customer support is incredible, and this app is always updating and improving. Just when I think Data Guardian can't possibly get any better, I'm always pleasantly surprised. Every single time.
I use DataGuardian for any kind of passwords, serial numbers and other bits of information want to protect and keep in a safe place. It's great to have own templates and to be able to organize everything with customizable keywords and smart collections. I do not have the iOs app yet, but as I write this, I decide to purchase it right now.
It just works, thanks!
This application has been around for many, many years and served my purposes for keeping track of not only passwords, but important and very private notes. I can even use it to log small bits of information, such as when a credit card is lost, or whom I talked to to resolve an issue, or how I may have more than one password for an account, etc. It's very customizable, which I love. I also like that it works on both my Mac and my iPhone, though syncing between the two is still not really automatic. But it still needs to support fingerprint logins on iPhone 6 and newer, and could improve the display of information on small computer screens. Overall, still my best go-to password application for Mac and iPhone.
I have all the data for me to be able to connect and passwords in DATA GUARDIAN It is the most uses app from Koingo Also use the other products, but data guardian is the one I use more often..
I have used Data Guardian for over 10 years now to store my most confidential and important data. I like it for it's blowfish encryption that gives me confidence that my confidential data is safe, it is straightforward to use and I can easily sync it with my iPhone
