Web and desktop KeePass-compatible password manager you can host yourself

Overview

KeeWeb is a free, cross-platform password manager compatible with the KeePass database format (.kdbx). It runs as a web app or desktop app and can be self-hosted, syncing databases via WebDAV, Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive. It offers a polished UI on top of the proven KeePass encryption format.

Where it falls short of LastPass

  • Project activity has slowed significantly; few recent releases
  • No built-in multi-user/team server — syncing relies on external storage (WebDAV/cloud) with no central access control
  • Browser autofill and mobile support are weaker than commercial managers
  • It is a client over KeePass files, not a true server platform with sharing/policies

We list the gaps honestly so you can decide if the trade-off is worth owning your data.
