Do you use Windows or want to view your passwords in browser on other OS's?
Do you trust Apples iCloud to keep your passwords secure (1password by default stores everything locally)?
Would you rather use Dropbox to sync?
How about storing files securely, or having a dedicated place for secure notes, other personal information, software keys etc...
You can easily backup, restore and merge the 1Password file store.
Thanks for voluntarily giving your passwords to NSA :D
* These applications store information that doesn't "fit" on the iCloud Keychain including:* Serial Numbers, especially for things you take out of your home like portable electronics and camera gear.
* Combinations for locks
* Software registration keys
* etc
* Cross platform compatibility (not just Macs and iOS devices)
* The easy ability to look up information on your iOS device when you are at a computer that isn't yours.
