Cons
Con Mobile app pricing is per platform
You have to pay for each mobile platform you run it on (iOS, Android), which can add up. However, these are one time charges and ultimately cheaper than subscriptions.
Con Developed in India
Con Not open source
Giving sensitive data to proprietary software is a bad idea.
Con Free mobile version very limited
Up to 20 passwords only.
Con Can't have more than one password data file (e.g. work passwords can't be separate from home on same machine)
Enpass only allows one password database. You can't have one Enpass database for work, with it's own master password, and then another separate Enpass database for home.
Enpass for Windows and Linux allows you to change the default location of Enpass database.
Con Crashes
Crashes while organizing about 200 passwords into categories.
Con Dark theme on macOS needs some work
The tabs for multiple databases and about menus are unreadable in dark mode on macOS.
Con Qt dependency hell
Con Browser plugin doesn't always connect to KeepassXC on the first attempt
Restarting the Browser or restarting KeePassXC fixes the integration.
Enabling "Automatically reconnect to KeePassXC" option in KeepassXC Browser Extension fixes this problem permanently.
