DEV-TOP · horizontalOur take
Best for teams that want a single tool covering both everyday team password management and developer secrets workflows (CLI, CI/CD) — the flat Starter Pack is good value for very small teams, but Business per-seat pricing is where most growing teams land.
Choose this if...
- Small-to-mid teams wanting shared password vaults with admin oversight
- Development teams wanting secrets management (CLI, SSH agent, CI/CD) alongside team password sharing
Look elsewhere if...
- You're a solo user — the personal 1Password plans are cheaper than any Business tier
- You need a dedicated enterprise secrets manager (e.g. Vault) rather than a password-manager-plus-secrets hybrid
