Password (and other secure information) manager for Blackberry & PC

Like many of you, I have a very large number of very private pieces of information that I need access to when I am sitting at my desk. However, I also would like a secure way of carrying and accessing that data when I am "on the go."  These items include website logins, credit-card numbers, account numbers, license numbers, insurance-policy numbers, expiration dates,  and more. It is extremely important that these bits of information be accessible, but it is essential that they be secure..

For the past few years, I have been using several pieces of software to keep those logins, passwords, and other bits info available in a password-protected encrypted file on my computer. I have looked for, but been unable to find a good desktop/Blackberry combination that would synchronize that information between my PC and my Blackberry. I found a good PC solution, that had no Blackberry client. I found several Blackberry applications that were pretty good, but their desktop companions were very weak.

Once in a while, I find a piece of software that "just feels right."   I discovered Ascendo DataVault. DataVault just feels right! Ascendo has perfected both the desktop program as well as the Blackberry application. Both are extremely intuitive and easy to use.

 Ascendo describes DataVault as:

 "Ascendo DataVault stores confidential information such as passwords, credit cards, PINs, logins and frequent flyer numbers using the most powerful encryption method available. Ascendo DataVault is the only product that provides tree views and list views on your Blackberry and Windows PC. This lets you organize data in a more intuitive way and find information quicker. Unmatched features and ease-of-use make Ascendo DataVault the leading 'secure data manager' for BlackBerry."

Blackberry forums review of DataVault included the following:

"For every category of software, a "gold standard" eventually emerges that all other offerings are judged against. Word Processing has MS Word, photo-editing has Photoshop, etc. In the category of secure password manager software for BlackBerry handhelds, I think DataVault is the "gold standard"."Dv3bbtreeview164739

 

The website, PinStack.com gave Ascendo DataVault their Five Star Award.

"Using DataVault on my BlackBerry was as easy as using it on the desktop. The information was where I put it, it was easy to find, and could easily be implemented. Good to know, though, that if I did have any queries, Ascendo’s comprehensive user guide was more than helpful."

 

However, for me, as good as the Blackberry application is, the Ascendo DataVault desktop application was a huge plus. The desktop application is excellent as well!

The DataVault desktop program includes utilities to import data files from all the major password software. I found importing my data to be extremely easy. Ascendo offers a free trial of their excellent DataVault program at the Ascendo DataVault website. I highly recommend you give it a try!
