Cons
Con No Linux support
Con Lack PIN unlocking on desktop
Unlocking the desktop application (at least in Windows) lacks simple PIN unlocking. The other options are interesting, but not as PIN for most users.
Con Passwords that aren't linked to URL or executables are manage with memos (notes)
The way Sticky Password manage passwords that are free of URL or applications isn't obvious. It necessary to write these in memos. Memos are managed in a way where it's too easy to modify them by mistakes. You could end up with a broken password...
Con Not user-friendly
Some features like capture of login into a web page are really simple and most of the time really efficient too. But, as soon as a login scheme become a bit complex, handling exception will causes killing headaches to common users. That's only one exemple, but there's many situations where that super cool passwords managers totally needs to be redesign.
Con WEAK hashing algorithm (4096 instead of 10,000 iterations)
Weak Hashing algorithm. Roboform only uses 4096 iterations of PBKDF2 with SHA-256, while other password managers use 100,000 iterations. NIST Guidelines require AT LEAST 10,000 iterations of PBKDF2 with SHA-256.
Con Does not help with updating weak and old passwords
You will have to step through the entries yourself.
