Synergy Roboform Pro & Form Filler Review

Bottom-Line: In an on-line (and off-line) world filled with a sprawling array password protected sites and programs, Roboform Pro & Form Filler really shines.

Okay, I'll admit it; I have long lists of passwords like everyone else; it seems you cannot even visit a web site these days without filling our reams of on-line forms. So like everyone else I started looking for a solution to manage all of these passwords.  I developed a list which I kept secreted away on my computer, but I also bought a cool keyboard with a fingerprint reader built in.  The keyboard is a great solution but one that is mated to just the one computer; what about my laptop and other desktop?  And the password list it kept was not transportable.      

Enter Synergy Roboform Pro & Form Filler a program that stores your user names, passwords, Internet Forms and other confidential information in encrypted files on your computer using powerful AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption. After initial setup whenever you visit a password-protected Web site, RoboForm Pro automatically retrieves your data and logs you in with one click.  A Master Password protects all of your other passwords.  It is the only password you have to remember, RoboForm Pro remembers all of the rest.

First Impressions

I Installed Roboform Pro & Form Filler on both my primary desktop and laptop computers.  During the installation the program installed a tool bar on Internet Explorer making access to Internet based passwords and form easy.  You can also fill out Identity forms for the forms filler portion of the program as well as password protected Safe-Notes ideal for filling out lists of passwords.   

If you have been away from the computer for a while, or you have to reboot, you'll have to reenter the Master Password; so word to the wise, do not forget it!

In addition to the web browser toolbar Roboform Pro & Form Filler also installs a Windows taskbar icon for easy access.  Via this taskbar icon, one can also access the many, many features of the program, including identity profiles, notes, and options.

My Viewpoint

In an on-line (and off-line) world filled with a sprawling array password protected sites and programs, Roboform Pro & Form Filler really shines.  With industry leading encryption and an easy to use interface Roboform Pro & Form Filler is a must for those with ever growing passwords.  And another advantage: the program allows one to expand our password selection; i.e. you do not have to use the same password for everything.  You can type it in once and Roboform Pro & Form Filler does the rest.  Of course the risk is you lose it all of the computer crashes, but you can always print out your forms and Safe-Notes.
