LastPass
I personally recommend LastPass for storing multiple Salesforce credentials – I also use LastPass for most of my other sites (I exclude financial sites).
I enable two-factor authentication and require password re-prompt for production logins for added security. I store security tokens in the notes field for each login. You can also use Lastpass with a fingerprint reader – nothing like logging into Salesforce with a swipe!
I’ve used LastPass within a team environment, sharing hundreds of logins within a group of users as well – can’t be beat.
Objectives for this Resource:
As you continue working with Salesforce, you may find that you have many different credentials to remember. Using a password manager can make storing credentials more secure and much easier to reference.
