Book an IT review

The team's passwords in a vault, sign-in in one place.

Shared passwords to company accounts given to people and groups, with a change history. Single sign-on to the applications running on your servers, with a second factor. Set up so that an employee leaving does not require changing every password in the company.

What you get after the review

The weakest point is usually not the system, but the spreadsheet with passwords.

Passwords to the domain panel, bank account, online shop or supplier portal often sit in a spreadsheet on a shared drive or in one person's notes. When that person is on holiday, the company waits. When they leave, nobody knows which passwords they knew.

A team password manager sorts this out without changing habits: a password is entered once, and access goes only to the people and groups who need it. After an employee leaves, you can see what they had access to and know which passwords to change.

The second part is sign-in to the applications themselves. When a company has several systems on its own servers, shared sign-in with a second factor replaces separate accounts in each of them. Disabling an account in one place closes access everywhere.

What we look at when choosing.

  1. 1

    Sharing in teams

    A business password manager has to let you grant access to groups and withdraw it with one click. A solution for one person will not do that.

  2. 2

    Recovering access

    We agree what happens when an employee forgets their master password. Some solutions have account recovery only in the paid edition, and without it the data may be unrecoverable.

  3. 3

    Domain sign-in

    Integration with a user directory is often in the paid edition. You know this before choosing.

  4. 4

    Who stands behind the project

    A solution with a vendor and audits behaves differently from a community project. Both can be sensible, but with passwords we say so plainly.

  5. 5

    Where the backups and keys are

    The password vault backup and the keys needed to restore it must not sit on the same server. We agree the restore plan before deployment.

Applications we deploy.

Every description of features, licences and limits comes from the vendor's materials, read on 2 October 2026. For each application we add our assessment of when it fits. We make the final choice after talking about your case.

We deploy it when it fits the case

An unofficial server compatible with the Bitwarden apps, developed by the community.

Licence
AGPLv3

interface in Polish (client apps)
  • The project is not associated with Bitwarden, Inc.

Our assessment: It stores particularly sensitive data, so we always compare it with the official server from the vendor of the apps.

authentik

We deploy it when it fits the case

A single sign-in platform for the company's applications.

Language
interface in Polish
  • The Enterprise edition adds, among other things, integration with Google Workspace and Microsoft Entra ID directories.

Our assessment: We deploy it when a company has several applications on its own servers and wants single sign-on with a second factor.

ZITADEL

We deploy it when it fits the case

An identity and sign-in platform for applications and users.

Language

  • Versions before 3.0 were licensed under Apache 2.0, newer ones under AGPLv3.

Our assessment: We choose it when sign-in also has to cover applications for the company's customers, not just employees.

When what you already have a cloud password manager is enough.

For many small businesses, the vendor's cloud password manager makes more sense than a server of your own: the vendor is responsible for availability and updates, and you pay a monthly subscription. If there's no reason to keep the vault in-house, that's what we'll advise.

Your own server makes sense when company policy or client requirements don't allow passwords to be stored with an outside provider, or when single sign-on has to run on your servers anyway.

How we deploy, step by step.

  1. 1

    Inventory of accounts

    We list shared accounts, their owners and the people who know the passwords today. Without this list, the vault quickly drifts away from reality.

  2. 2

    Groups and permissions

    We design groups that match the teams and the rules: who adds passwords, who shares them, who has emergency access.

  3. 3

    Installation and a second factor

    A separate environment, HTTPS, sign-in with a second factor for administrators and users.

  4. 4

    Moving passwords and training

    Import from spreadsheets, removal of old password files and short training on the browser extension.

  5. 5

    Backup and emergency procedure

    An encrypted backup outside the server, a restore test and a written access procedure for when the server is down.

The server, domain and vendor licences are in your company's name. We record response time and fix time separately in the contract, and state the restore time after a test. Service terms

Questions before you decide.

What if the password server stops working?

That is why the backup is outside the server and the restore procedure is tested. For critical accounts we also set up emergency access, described in the recovery plan.

Will employees have passwords on their phones?

Yes, through a mobile app or a browser, if the chosen solution supports it. We enable phone access together with a second sign-in factor.

Will single sign-on work with Microsoft 365?

It depends on the edition of the chosen tool, because integrations with cloud directories are often paid. We check this for your case before quoting.

Can you review who has access to what?

Yes. An access review is part of ongoing care, and we carry it out periodically or after changes in the team.

First, a conversation about the process, then the tool.

  1. You tell us about the processOnline, by video call. What takes up time today, which systems hold the data and what you want to achieve.
  2. We tell you whether it's worth itSometimes a change to a spreadsheet or a process is enough. If so, we'll say that instead of proposing a project.
  3. You get the next stepBy email after the meeting: what to map, what data to prepare and what the price depends on.
