Customer Reviews from the Developer Website

RoboForm is head and shoulders above the other software in this category. I can't begin to document all the time RoboForm has saved me as well as saving me stress on my hands. The support staff is very responsive to questions and/or suggestions. Marsha Kamish

Every now and then a software application comes along that is so amazingly useful it can leave you literally breathless. Siber Systems' RoboForm fits very comfortably into that category. RoboForm is a "jack of all trades" password manager, forms filler, ID info storage manager, and more. It takes routine, time-consuming, repetitive chores in those categories and makes them quick and effortless.

RoboForm is a five star utility that we recommend enthusiastically for all users from beginner to expert. Sarasota PC monitor September 2007

RoboForm has been a life saver. I do a lot of online purchases, have passwords "out the gazoo" and spent half of my online time filling out one form or another. Thanks again for such a wonderful product. I am continuously amazed at fast my forms are filled. It is an awesome program for me. Ed Talamantes

Roboform Features
Saving and Filling Passwords and Forms
Save Online Passwords RoboForm offers to save the online login form into Passcard when you click Login/Submit button on the web page.
Fill Saved Online Passwords RoboForm offers to fill the saved online passwords into online form when you visit the page for which passwords were saved.
True 1-click Login A single Login command causes: (i) navigation to a site login page, (ii) automatic filling of the login form, (iii) submission of the login form.
View and Edit your Passwords Passcard Editor allows to easily view, edit, copy, rename and delete your Passcards (each Passcard stores login info for one account).
Saving non-Passcard data to Safenotes
Save Secret Text Data to Safenotes You can store offline data in RoboForm Safenotes that are encrypted by your Master Password. Examples of things to store in SafeNotes:
- Software registration codes,
- ATM (cash machine) passwords,
- Lock combinations,
- UNIX command line logins.
Use Safenotes as extended Clipboard You can store non-secret texts such as standard replies to emails in Safenotes too. Each Safenote can be individually password-protected or not.
Filling Long Forms from Identities
Quality Artificial Intelligence RoboForm is really smart in filling in forms; it is the most precise form filler on the market. We use Artificial Intelligence techniques to achieve this kind of precision and we test RoboForm thoroughly.
Multiple Identities You can have many Identities and you can easily switch between them. Your identities do not have to be real persons. Use fake Identities -- preserve your privacy.
Multiple Credit Cards, Addresses, even Persons in Each Identity Every group of fields found in Identity (Credit Card, Address, Bank Account, Person) can have multiple instances. That is, you can have several credit cards, addresses and persons (usually members of one group) in one Identity.
Password Generator
Generate Secure Random Passwords Generate random password of any length, up to 512 characters. Options:
- Specify set of characters to appear in the password, including special characters.
- Option to exclude similar characters.
- Option to generate hexadecimal passwords.
- Password bit strength indicator.
Automatic Filling of Generated Password RoboForm fills generated password automatically when you click Generate -> Fill button.
Folders Passcards, Identities and Safenotes can be categorized into Folders.
Security & Encryption
Encryption Strong Encryption Algorithms Used: AES, Blowfish, RC6, 3-DES or 1-DES algorithms.
Encryption by Master Password You can protect all your Identities and Passcards with the Master Password thus making them inaccessible to unauthorized users and unreadable by hackers even if they are stolen. We use AES encryption for increased protection.
Defeats Keyloggers When RoboForm enters the saved password into form fields, it is not typing them through keyboard, so if a keylogger is installed on your computer and it is monitoring keyboard events for passwords, it will get no keyboard clicks when you use RoboForm to enter passwords.
Auto-Logoff You can ask RoboForm to purge cached Master Password from memory after a specified period of inactivity.
Managing User Data
Backup and Restore Backup and Restore commands are provided.
Each Passcard / Identity is a File Each Passcard, Identity and Safenote is a separate file. This allows to have links to Passcards on desktop, to send them to your friends by email, and to copy/move them using Windows Explorer.
RoboForm Profiles A collection of Passcards, Identities and Safenotes constitutes one RoboForm Profile. You can have more than one Profile, say one RF Profile for every member of the household. Easy switching between Profiles is provided.
Other Features
Syncronization Sync your passwords and notes to Palm or Pocket PC.
AutoComplete for Passcards, Safenotes, Contacts Type partial name of Passcard, Identity, Safenote and have RoboForm show you all objects that match. This is autocomplete for Passcard and Identity names. ENTER executes the default command on the 1st shown object.
Search Engines Type a search word or phrase, press F3 or F6 and it is searched in Yahoo, Google or other search engine. You can add new search engines or customize default search engines: assigned key, order of appearance, search URL.
Portability on USB and Removable Drives RoboForm2Go (portable version of RoboForm) can be carried on USB key or any removable drive.
Physical Security Your passwords and sensitive personal data is stored on USB key, so once you pull it out, the data is physically gone from the computer. In fact, your password files are never placed on the client computer disk.
Physical Portability Both RoboForm program and your password files reside on USB key, so you can freely take them from one computer to another.
Full Automation RoboForm2Go does not have to be installed on client computer. It starts automatically when you plugin the USB key and it attaches to browsers without need for browser helper object or toolbar registration, that is, no install is required. So you can run RoboForm2Go on computers where you do not have permission to install software.
RoboForm Toolbar RoboForm adds a toolbar to Internet Explorer, Avant, MaxThon, Slim, Firefox, Mozilla browsers. RoboForm toolbar is the best way to control RoboForm operation.
Convert from Gator You can use a converter program to convert Gator user data to RoboForm format.
