Cons
Con Backups are up to the user
There is no service with this application, it is up to the end user to backup all data.
Con Has to be running on a server to work
Unlike other password managers such as KeePass, Clipperz can not just be simply run by executing once downloaded. It has to be setup to run on a server and then can be accessed from the necessary devices.
Con Deterministic
Deterministic password managers have many drawbacks.
Con Cannot store existing secrets
Existing secrets (aka passwords) cannot be stored with deterministic password managers. In order to use LessPass effectively, you will need to change your password on every site.
Con Easily cracked with exposed/compromised master password
Since anyone can use LessPass with the same parameters as you, all they need is your master password (which could be obtained through keylogging or numerous other methods) to gain access to every one of your site passwords.
