Pros and cons
LogMeOnce
Pros
- Apps are listed for Windows, Mac and Linux, so one account covers desktop and mobile.
- The family edition is Family edition for 6 family members, $4.99 per month, so a whole household shares one vault and one bill.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, so a phone call is available as well as email.
Cons
- The feature list is totp and nothing more, so plan inclusions are thin for anyone shopping on features.
- Sharing costs more than the entry point, because Family edition for 6 family members, $4.99 per month is priced above it.
- A free plan is listed, but 59.3% of the brands in this group also offer one, so it is a common baseline rather than a reason to move.
NordVPN
Pros
- Covers 150 server countries, the highest count in the ranking, with 10 devices per account
- Features include kill switch, split tunnelling and multi hop alongside the stated no logs, streaming and travel use cases
- Protocol choice covers OpenVPN, NordLynx and NordWhisper
Cons
- Entry price is high: €14.99 a month on the monthly plan puts it near the bottom of the monthly price ranking
- There is no free plan, so the free version comparison starts with nothing to test
- Renewal is charged at €139.08, a jump from the €3.49 monthly rate on the introductory long plan
Who each suits
LogMeOnce
Who it suits
- Households that want one shared vault and one bill for the whole family.
- Readers who start on a free plan and pay only when the basics stop being enough.
- People who want phone and chat support from a provider based in the United States.
Who should look elsewhere
- People who want their vault inside Apple's own platform set of iOS, iPadOS and macOS, where Apple Inc. already covers them.
- Shoppers who would rather weigh a higher entry price, since Total Password starts at €9.99.
- Brazilian readers comparing local pricing, since ESET Brasil starts at BRL 64.22.
NordVPN
Who it suits
- People who need coverage across 150 server countries rather than a handful of nearby ones
- Households or small teams that need 10 connected devices on one subscription
- Subscribers comfortable committing to a long plan, since €3.49 is only reached on the longest term
Who should look elsewhere
- People wanting a free tier, since there is no free plan to start on
- Anyone who needs to pay month to month on a small budget, as €14.99 a month is the priciest end of the monthly ranking
- Readers who need phone support, since the listed channels are email, chat and help centre

Questions about each
LogMeOnce
How much does LogMeOnce cost?+
Paid tiers start at $2.50, which is a floor rather than a term total, so renewal spending is worth checking against the term you want. Across the brands compared here, LogMeOnce sits at 7 of 36 on starting price, and the group median is €9.09.
Is there a free version?+
Yes. A free plan is available, and free and budget places LogMeOnce among the free and budget options on the site. Free plans are not rare in this field, since 59.3% of the password managers listed offer one, so the free tier is a starting point rather than a reason to switch on its own.
NordVPN
How much does NordVPN cost to start with?+
The monthly plan is priced at €14.99. Committing to the longest term, 27 months, brings the monthly figure down to €3.49. That lower rate is introductory, and the 30 money back window still applies if the subscription is not a fit.
What do I pay when the plan renews?+
Renewal is charged at €139.08 for the long term, against the €3.49 monthly rate that applies at the start. Budget for the renewal figure rather than the headline monthly number, since the per month rate is the part that is promotional. The two prices together tell the full cost of staying.
