Our verdict on each
Enpass
Enpass suits people who want a password manager they can try before paying and who prefer keeping vault data in their own cloud rather than on vendor servers. The free plan holds Up to 25 items in 1 vault, passkeys are supported, and the terms sit under US jurisdiction.
Kaspersky
Kaspersky Secure Connection fits households already inside the Kaspersky ecosystem, since one subscription carries the VPN, password manager and parental controls together. Server reach of 93 countries sits above the median VPN, and 10 devices at once covers a couple or a family.

Pros and cons
Enpass
Pros
- A free plan exists and holds Up to 25 items in 1 vault, so a small vault costs nothing to keep.
- Entry price $1.99 undercuts Total Password, which lists €9.99 at entry.
- Vault data stays in the user's own cloud, so nothing readable rests on Enpass servers.
Cons
- Enpass is not open source, so outside researchers cannot read the code themselves.
- Support runs on help centre, community and email, with no phone line or live chat in that list.
- The free plan stops at Up to 25 items in 1 vault, so a larger vault needs a paid plan.
Kaspersky
Pros
- Kaspersky Premium bundles the VPN, password manager and parental controls (vpn, password manager and parental controls) in one subscription a family plan can share
- Device and platform coverage is generous: 10 devices at once, with apps for Windows, macOS and Android on desktop and mobile
- Streaming and travel are stated features, with Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ supported and kill switch and split tunnelling built in as standard
Cons
- Support runs on help centre and community only, so quick answers go through documentation or the community rather than live chat
- The protocol list is WireGuard, so readers who want a wider choice of protocols have less room to compare
- The free version that Kaspersky lists sits with antivirus rather than a free VPN, so VPN features start on a paid subscription
Who each suits
Enpass
Who it suits
- People who want a password manager to try with no payment, since the free plan holds Up to 25 items in 1 vault.
- Users who already back up to their own cloud and want the vault stored there rather than on a vendor's servers.
- Households sharing a subscription, since the family plan adds family management on annual billing.
Who should look elsewhere
- People who want passwords kept inside the operating system, where Apple Inc. covers iOS, iPadOS and macOS.
- Buyers set on a different vendor at a higher entry price, such as Total Password at €9.99.
- Anyone who needs a vault larger than Up to 25 items in 1 vault without paying.
Kaspersky
Who it suits
- Households that already pay for Kaspersky security software and want the VPN folded into the same subscription rather than bought separately
- Travellers who want one app for secure connections on Windows, macOS and Android across phones and desktops while abroad
- Families sharing one account, since the family plan passes the same subscription across to other members in the household
Who should look elsewhere
- AVG, if server spread matters most, since its coverage starts at from 100 countries, further than Kaspersky reaches
- Namecheap, if you want the widest server list, since it lists from 100 countries or more across its network
- ESET Brasil, if device counts drive the choice, since its plans scale from 3 to 25 devices under one plan

Questions about each
Enpass
How much does Enpass cost to start?+
Enpass lists plans from $1.99 at the entry point. The family plan is billed annually and adds family management for a small group of people. On entry price the brand ranks 4 of 36 brands compared here, so the starting figure sits toward the cheap end.
Is there a free version of Enpass?+
Yes, Enpass has a free plan, and it holds Up to 25 items in 1 vault. That cap suits a short list of logins rather than a full household vault, and it means trying the apps costs nothing. Anyone who outgrows the limit moves to a paid plan.
Kaspersky
What does Kaspersky Premium include besides the VPN?+
One Kaspersky Premium subscription covers vpn, password manager and parental controls, and the family plan lets the same subscription be shared with family members through one account. That bundle is the main reason to look here rather than a standalone VPN.
How many devices can one Kaspersky subscription cover?+
The plan covers 10 devices at once, which suits a couple or a shared family without straining. Server reach runs to 93 countries, a wider spread than the median VPN listed on the site.
