This edition features a considerably extended list of different data types, supported by Password Commander and improved editing for entries.
- Password Commander 3.0 Online Edition
A light edition of the client, connecting to an Internet server, where users keep their passwords (something like any instant-messaging client, which you can launch in any internet-cafe, then after authorization, obtain your own list of contacts from the server and start a conversation). Password autofill, generation, secure storage of the local copy of passwords — no extras, only the most important functional features are available for your convenience.

Mobile applications (for PDA ans smartphones)

Server-side applications
- Password Commander 3.0 Enterprise Server
A server solution for corporate clients, allowing the creation of a system of integrated authentication (Single Sign On, SSO) on the basis of the customary Password Commander. Integrates with Microsoft Active Directory (also oprerates without connecting to AD as well), features a flexible system of access permissions at the user level. As a client, Password Commander 3.0 Professional Edition can be connected up to Enterprise Server.

The main difference of Online Server from other server solutions is that administrators of the server CANNOT GAIN ACCESS TO USER'S PASSWORDS. Basically, we offer this server solution not for use within a company, but for local area networks or internet providers (where there are also additional net services — like a music or game server).
Web-services
