They mangle the concepts of a print function and an export function to make excuses. Oh, here is the main part of the "explanation" from Siber for crippling the export. It is the customers and potential customers that tell Siber that with these types of shenanigans they can not be considered an ethical company. Since LastPass is a competitor, they are being cordial and explaining this in a matter-of-fact way. In order to export with the full URL, you'll have to downgrade to version six." Without the full URL of the site, LastPass doesn't know where the login fields are, and autofill will likely be dysfunctional. Although you will still be able to export your passcards, they will not be imported to LastPass correctly. "Siber Systems has changed the export process in the newest version of Roboform - version 7 does not include the option to export your logins with the full site URL. "Version 6.9 allowed you to export your logins, passwords and URLs for import into other password applications but version 6.10 will not let you export the URL any more " Mixed Reactions to Roboform's Version 7 Upgrade The article by Sandra Grauschopf was very helpful. btw, Siber's other main program is GoodSync. UPDATE: After a long wait, possibly just their sleeping, this was approved, so we can watch for the Siber response.īased on such a post being censored, it is clear that Bits Du Jour will now suppress flaws and factual corrections and ethical concerns. ![]() Siber - does this Roboform have a complete export facility of all the password data, including the full url ? As an example, LastPass is listed as at a minimum of $12 per year, but that is only the Premium service, many use the free service. To show you the changes in Bits, this is the post on the current thread that was censored:ĭanny - Top Ten Reviews is not considered reliable, since their operation is based on trying to make commissions on sales. Little reason to get involved in discussion (except for maybe the rare situation such as helping with Linkman discussion) and purchases now considered largely done. Siber-Roboform and the ethics of crippling an export function.įrom this experience, my former enthusiasm for Bits has been greatly dampened. On the Siber issue, I managed to place a post in the little-read Bits forum (if you can see it): (I don't blame that on Bits directly but it has weakened the whole concept.) Note also that there has been an increase of what seem to be shill and social media type "rah-rah" posts from a number of vendors. (I have purchased in the past many items with them and made many comments.) It really seems like Bits, which used to have a reputation of allowing tuff questions, is now going milquetoast "protectia" for clients. For this reason, you will find lots of discussion of Roboform customers actually trying to reload earlier versions of Roboform in order to have a proper export function.Īnd I asked about this on Bits and got a developer response that was unacceptable, and from that point on, Bits threw out two of my comments and placed my posts on moderation. If another password program imports the HTML, you then have to change all the urls by hand. Which would be fine as an "option" but since the "Print-to-HTML" is their export facility it acts to cripple the export. Apparently their export function is "Print-to-HTML" and they shortened the url. ![]() With two recent Bits specials, I read up on Roboform issues and found out that, at a time that people were concerned about licensing changes, Siber changed the export function in 6.10 and 7. We have discussed that here on some threads. Siber Systems from Roboform has done some things that made former customers a bit unhappy, where they felt that the terms of the purchase and licensing was unilaterally changed.
