iCloud Keychain excels within the Apple ecosystem with tight integration and strong hardware security. However, its limited cross-platform support makes it unsuitable for users with mixed devices.

- Passkey support with biometric authentication
Limitations
- Very limited Windows support via iCloud app
- No native Android or Linux support
- No secure notes or document storage
When to Choose RoboForm
Long-time users and those prioritizing form filling over modern features
RoboForm remains a budget-friendly option with excellent form filling, though its dated interface and lack of modern polish make it hard to recommend over newer competitors.
Strengths
- Very affordable premium pricing
- Excellent form-filling capabilities
- Strong offline access mode
- Application password support
Limitations
- Interface feels dated and cluttered
- Limited browser extension features
- Security audit history unclear
