Roboform Review

Posted by: Jonathon Weston | Comments (0)

robo-praiseIf you spend as much time online or in front of a computer as I do, you quickly notice you’re spending more and more time and energy trying to remember passwords, filling in forms, and keeping your personal information safe.

This is where Roboform comes in. I’m not sure where I found out about Roboform initially, but I know that at the time I was struggling to remember at least 30 different sets of passwords and log in informations… and to be honest most of these were all identical - or in other words my username and pass were the same at 30 websites, except for maybe a handful that I thought deserved a safer user/pass.

Since using Roboform, I’ve accumulated… brace yourself for it… 156 passwords for various internet sites, banking, gaming, news, blogs, networks, paypal accounts… and the list goes on.

I think we probably all have at least 50 to 100 sites we remember passwords for if we own websites or are particularly active online — you just never notice how many you have until you start using Roboform.

As you can probably guess Roborm has cut the time I spend entering passwords dramatically (I would forget passwords all the time), but the biggest 2 bonuses to using Roboform are:

  1. You save your precious fingers and hands from constantly typing in user/pass details, and long forms.
  2. You stop stressing about forgetting all your password information, or stressing that some dodgy keylogger is going to catch you entering a password.

How does Roboform work?

Basically whenever you need to enter password details into a site, Roboform will detect the presence of a webform, and pop a window up asking if you’d like to save these log in details. You accept, and then whenever you need to come back to the site in the future, you simply click a small toolbar icon in your web browser, select the name of the site you want to log in to, and Roboform navigates there, enters your user/pass, then submits it for you.

I love it. And I quite honestly would have massive withdrawal symptoms if I was forced to work without it.

Roboform also lets you streamline entering form info - so, lets say you’re trying to make money filling out surveys online, or maybe you’re a marketer that fills out network applications regularly, then you can tell Roboform to enter your name, email, phone, address, everything that common forms ask you for.

Again, its amazing how often you find yourself filling out forms online… I use my one click form filler every day, and I would be lost without it.

If I sound like I’m being overly enthusiastic about Roboform, maybe you’re right. But I’ve not been this enthusiastic about a piece of software since… I don’t know… Lemmings on the Amiga?

Go and get Roboform, and I’m sure you’ll enthusiastically rave about it to friends, too.

Get Roboform here.
