Ratings and reviews

This is an excellent Password Vault. My only suggestion is to make sure you read their emails. They don't flood you with them. My only only problem was self caused. I missed reading an email that was sent. On an upgrade and was frustrated when I upgraded. My fault not code books. Once I read the email they had sent prior to the upgrade. I had no problem with implementing.

I love Codebook and depend on it for total security in terms of all my password maintenance. I've been using it for several years and have it running on a Windows desktop computer as well as two Android devices (a phone and a tablet). When I recently ran into some challenges during the upgrade to version 4 of the app., I found the Codebook Support to be excellent. They worked with me patiently and in detail to ensure all my issues were resolved such that I can now successfully sync for instances of Codebook across all my devices. The application is user-friendly and a great solution to a problem that so many of us face with how to securely keep track of all our ever-changing passwords.

I couldn't live without Codebook! I have all my passwords, PINs, sensitive info, there and I access it EVERY. SINGLE. DAY! It's very user-friendly, it has the capacity to store a ton of stuff, and guess what? When I changed my laptop and/or phone, I didn't have to pay again for it, I just used the key/phone credentials to reinstall it. Their customer support is outstanding, responds very quickly and basically answers all of you questions! I've been using it for more than a decade and I will keep on using it as long as I can! I don't know what else to say than I LOVE IT! Highly recommend it, since it's a great bang for the buck!
