Ahead of this year’s World Password Day,Dashlanehas unveiled a new Essentials plan that gives users of itspassword managereven more choices when it comes to deciding how to secure their online accounts.
Based on feedback from its customers, Essentials builds off the company’s Free plan and provides users with a new affordable monthly pricing option to store, secure and access unlimited passwords and accounts across multiple devices.
In apress release, chief product officer at Dashlane, Derek Snyder explained why the company decided to create its new Essentials plan, saying:
“With more and more people realizing the importance of proper password hygiene, one of the most common requests we heard was for a more flexible plan; one still helps users manage the fundamentals of their identity, privacy, and security at an accessible monthly price point, but may not have as many advanced security features as our Premium offering. We wholeheartedly believe that everyone should have a password manager—budget constraints or year-long commitments shouldn’t be a barrier to safer, easier access online."

This means that you can use Dashlane with both yourdesktop computerandsmartphonefor all your password management needs for as little as $2.99 per month.
