Proton Pass als Linux-Alternative zu KeePassX
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Proton Pass is a good replacement for KeePassX if you trust Proton’s ecosystem and want strong encryption with modern convenience. It covers core password management well: secure storage, autofill, 2FA generation, and cross-platform sync via Proton Drive. However, it’s not offline-first by design—sync relies on Proton’s services. If you prioritize full local control and air-gapped databases, KeePassXC remains better. For users wanting simplicity, open-source transparency, and integration with Proton’s privacy suite, Proton Pass is a solid alternative.

- Proton Pass stores data on Proton’s infrastructure by default; KeePassXC keeps everything local

- KeePassXC allows fully self-contained usage without accounts; Proton Pass requires a Proton account
- Proton Pass has no support for custom fields or advanced database structuring like groups and subgroups
Ihre KeePassX-Dateien öffnen
Proton Pass does not currently support direct import of .kdbx files from KeePassX or KeePassXC. While Proton supports importing from other password managers like LastPass and Bitwarden, there's no public evidence of native KeePassX file compatibility. Users would need to export credentials manually or use intermediate tools to migrate. This limits direct file interchange, making bulk migration less straightforward.
