Worked example
What it makes
The starting criteria for a password manager comparison, with example scores for three unnamed options to show how the weighting works. Your Room uses your own options and scores.
| Criterion (weight) | Option A | Option B | Option C |
|---|---|---|---|
| Security model we can verify (5) | 5/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Shared vaults and sharing controls (5) | 3/5 | 5/5 | 4/5 |
| Admin console and user provisioning (4) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Single sign-on with our identity provider (4) | 3/5 | 4/5 | 2/5 |
| Easy for non-technical staff (4) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Offboarding and account recovery (3) | 3/5 | 4/5 | 2/5 |
| Total cost per user (3) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 3/5 |
| Weighted score | 75/100 | 72.1/100 | 67.9/100 |
Weighted score = sum of (weight × score) ÷ sum of (weight × 5), out of 100.

Questions
About the Password Manager Comparison
Does WZRD rate these products?
No. You score each option on your own criteria; WZRD only does the weighted maths and lays out the result. Check prices and features on each vendor's own site, because they change often.
Is LastPass on the list?
Yes, alongside 1Password, Bitwarden, Dashlane, Keeper and NordPass. WZRD doesn't rate any of them: look into each one's security history yourself and score it.
