Our company has about 200 users split between Mac and Windows, and is finally serious about a password manager. While I'm all for security, im also under immense pressure to find a solution that is cost-effective and provides demonstrable ROI and business value, and I have smug morons breathing down my neck over this. The budget is tight, and I'm frankly exhausted by the current trend of freemium products that does nothing but lock essential features behind paywalls. I've personally been burned by services like Defguard and Rustdesk, where after investing time in setup, I find features critical for even basic team setup requiring monthly subscriptions, often without month-to-month options. It’s just not sustainable and completely defeats the purpose of self-hosting for me. I want as much control over data as possible and ideally, no recurring subscriptions. Also if I mess this up, the aforementioned morons will have a field day, and I dont wanna give them the satisfaction. Every other option feels like a bait-and-switch, using self-hosted or open source as a marketing scheme only to push enterprise SaaS pricing. Because of this im heavily leaning towards solutions that offer transparent pricing or, if finding this unicorn is possible, an open source self hosted option. Not likely possible tho if I’m being honest with myself here. Vaultwarden looks decent, allows me to host my own instance, theoretically cutting costs and increasing data control, but thats all there is to it i guess. KeePass and its various clients are also appealing because they operate entirely offline and don't require server infrastructure, inherently free beyond initial setup. Finally, Passwork claims to offer enterprise-grade security at a sustainable cost with a 30% lower TCO than competitors, which is an interesting claim. However, I need to dig into that to ensure it’s not another hidden subscription trap, and I haven’t found many reddit threads about it either. I have no first hand reviews of it, so I’d like those if someone has experience with it I understand developers need to eat, and I'm not against paying for quality software or support. I regularly donate to projects I value but the "pay a cloud service amount to self-host" model is again just not sustainable for us and imho predatory for the most part. For those of you who've successfully implemented an enterprise password manager on a budget, particularly with self-hosted solutions, what were your total costs? And do please share if you ran into any vendor lock-in or surprise paywalls, and how you avoided them. Seriously, would appreciate the advice. And sorry for the ramblings, I’ve been under some stress lately
