JumpCloud Password Vault
The social media login is in a spreadsheet. Three people who knew it left last quarter — JumpCloud Password Vault keeps shared logins, personal passwords and 2FA codes in one central cloud vault, switched on by user group and filled by the JumpCloud Go extension — the 2026 replacement for the device-based Password Manager, with no offline mode.

Understand business password vaults before you buy one
Most product pages skip this. We start here — so you buy a capability, not a buzzword.
A workforce vault inside the directory
One cloud vault for shared logins and 2FA codes, switched on for JumpCloud user groups.
Passwords in a shared spreadsheet vs JumpCloud Password Vault — the honest table
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Passwords in a shared spreadsheet | JumpCloud Password Vault |
|---|---|---|
| Shared logins | A spreadsheet on a shared drive | Shared folders with four rights per item |
| Who sees a password | Everyone who can open the sheet | Auto-login without View Secrets, where set |
| Who gets access | Whoever was emailed the file | Enrolment by JumpCloud user group |
| 2FA codes | On one person’s phone | Stored in the vault, filled by the extension |
| Audit | None | Vault activity logged in Directory Insights |
| What it is NOT | — | A PAM tool, or a vault you can open offline |
The cheapest test is one team’s shared spreadsheet: move it into the vault for the 30-day trial and see who still asks for a password.
The four pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
Central vault
Credentials are held in JumpCloud’s cloud, in your tenant’s region, not on each laptop: the break from the legacy Password Manager, and why there is no offline mode.
Admin Portal
Admins switch the vault on for user groups, set up shared folders and permissions, and read vault activity in Directory Insights beside the tenant’s other events.
User Portal
Each user gets a private space the organisation cannot open, plus the shared folders and tagged items their groups were granted; items are created and edited here.
Clients
The Go extension fills logins and 2FA codes on non-SSO sites in Chrome, Firefox and Edge; the Protect mobile app can view and autofill items but not edit them.
One cloud vault per tenant, run from the Admin Portal, opened in the User Portal and filled by the Go extension — nothing is cached on the device.
Nine capabilities. Store, share, fill.
JumpCloud Password Vault puts every shared login in one cloud vault, opened from the same portal as your SSO apps.
One central credential store
Logins, notes and 2FA codes sit in a single cloud vault per tenant, replacing the copies the old app kept on every device.
A personal space IT cannot open
Every user keeps a private area the organisation can’t access, so personal logins stay apart from shared company credentials.
Folders and tags
Items are grouped into folders and labelled with tags, so a team finds the right shared login without asking for it on chat.
Four rights per shared item
Grant Auto-login (Connect), View Secrets, View Details or Manage, so a colleague can be let in without being shown the password.
Enrolment by user group
The vault is switched on for JumpCloud user groups, so the directory groups you already maintain decide who gets it.
Activity in Directory Insights
Vault events are logged to Directory Insights, JumpCloud’s activity log, next to sign-ins and device events from the same tenant.
Autofill where SSO does not reach
The JumpCloud Go extension fills logins on non-SSO sites in Chrome, Firefox and Edge; Safari support is listed as coming soon.
One-time codes filled too
Stored 2FA codes are filled by the same extension, so a shared account behind an authenticator code stays usable by a team.
View and autofill on phones
The JumpCloud Protect app shows vault items and autofills them on mobile; creating or editing items happens in the web portals.
Most shared passwords outlive the people who knew them. JumpCloud Password Vault ties them to your directory.
Here’s what genuinely sets it apart — and exactly where it stops.
The vault lives where your identities live
Most password managers arrive as a second console with a second user list. Here the vault is switched on for JumpCloud user groups, staff open it from the same User Portal that launches their SSO apps, and its activity lands in Directory Insights. For a team already on JumpCloud, that is one less system to provision and offboard.
It covers the logins SSO never will
Shared social accounts, supplier portals, government sites and older tools rarely speak SAML. The JumpCloud Go extension autofills those logins and their 2FA codes in Chrome, Firefox and Edge, and the Auto-login right lets a colleague sign in through the vault without being shown the password.
Priced like a feature, not a second product
At $3 per user a month on annual billing ($4 month to month), it undercuts 1Password Business ($8.99) and Bitwarden Teams ($4), and the $11 SSO package bundles it with SSO, MFA, the cloud directory and user lifecycle. TechBag quotes either route in INR with GST.
Where it stops
No offline access: the 2026 design keeps nothing on devices. Safari has no extension yet, mobile is view-and-autofill only, and automatic password rotation is not documented for this vault. It is not PAM, which is JumpCloud’s separate VaultOne-based product, and legacy Password Manager users have a migration to run.
The numbers behind the platform
What your JumpCloud Password Vault rollout looks like
Count seats, pick a route
Choose à la carte at $3 or the $11 SSO package, and note that suspended users stay billable until they are removed.
Choose the region first
New tenants pick the US, EU or India region at sign-up; if vault data must stay in India, settle that before anything else.
Pilot with one team
Enrol one user group, move its shared spreadsheet into folders, and test autofill and 2FA codes in Chrome, Firefox and Edge.
Migrate legacy users
Move any legacy Password Manager users across, check shared items arrived, and warn field staff there is no offline mode.
Roll out and settle
Enrol the remaining groups, review vault events in Directory Insights, then settle the INR quote with GST through TechBag.

Quick poll — what’s driving your evaluation?
Talk to an advisor“We already ran SSO on JumpCloud, so switching the vault on for two user groups took an afternoon, not a new tool rollout.”
“The Auto-login right let our agency staff use shared ad accounts without ever seeing the passwords. That alone justified it.”
“Our field sales team works in low-signal districts. The new vault has no offline mode, and they felt it in the first week.”
“Cheaper than a separate password manager for 300 staff, because it came inside the SSO package we were already pricing.”
“Moving from the old Password Manager kept our shared folders intact, though a few users had to reinstall the extension.”
“We picked the India region at sign-up. Our compliance team’s first DPDP question was where vault data sits, so that helped.”
Where everyone sits — the grids
Analyst firms bury this view behind paywalls, and review-site grids score satisfaction, not fit for your estate. So here’s TechBag’s synthesis of the business password management market — tap any vendor to see why it sits where it does.
TechBag Business Password Vault Grid
Execution strength vs product vision — the classic market map, minus the paywall.
$3 a user; a vault inside the JumpCloud identity platform.
Directory Tie-in × Vault Depth
The grid nobody publishes — how tightly a vault is bound to your identity directory vs how much it does on its own: offline use, rotation, clients and self-hosting.
Native to its directory; no offline mode, no rotation documented.

Which approach fits you?
Honest fit signals — because the fastest way to lose your trust is to pretend one product wins every scenario.
Choose JumpCloud Password Vault if…
- ✓You already run JumpCloud for SSO or devices and want shared logins managed by the same user groups
- ✓You want a vault at $3 a user, or bundled into the $11 SSO package you are already pricing
- ✓Vault data must stay in India and you are setting up an India-region JumpCloud tenant
Compare alternatives if…
- ✓Staff need the vault offline — Zoho Vault, Securden Teams or Bitwarden’s read-only mode
- ✓You must self-host — Bitwarden Enterprise or Securden can run on your own servers
- ✓Engineers want SSH keys and CLI secrets in the same vault — 1Password covers them
Do not expect…
- ✓Offline access, or a Safari extension today
- ✓Automatic password rotation or privileged session control — that is JumpCloud PAM
- ✓An analyst placement — JumpCloud publishes no Gartner, Forrester or IDC ranking

What does managing shared passwords by hand cost you?
Drag the sliders (staff who share logins; IT-hour cost). Estimates model the IT time spent on password resets, hunting for shared logins and changing credentials when people leave, at an assumed 2 hours per user a year, with 60% of it removed by a shared vault with autofill. Both figures are assumptions. Illustrative.

Three ways to consume it
JumpCloud lists Password Management at $3 per user a month on annual billing, or $4 month to month, bought à la carte. It is also part of the SSO package at $11 per user a month annually ($13 monthly), with SSO, MFA, Cloud Directory, Directory Insights and user lifecycle, and of the Platform packages, which are quoted. Suspended users remain billable, and new accounts get a 30-day trial, not a free tier. TechBag quotes in INR with GST.

The 8 questions to ask every vendor
Take this into your next vendor call — including ours.
Do any staff work without a connection? Since the 2026 rebuild the vault cannot be opened offline at all.
Do Mac users live in Safari? The JumpCloud Go extension covers Chrome, Firefox and Edge; Safari is still to come.
Is your tenant in the India region? Existing US or EU tenants move only through a paid custom migration.
Who can decrypt vault data? JumpCloud does not claim a zero-knowledge design for the vault; ask for the model.
Is Directory Insights in your licence? Vault events land there, and bought à la carte it is its own $3 line.
How are leavers removed? Suspended users stay billable, so the offboarding runbook should delete, not suspend.
Can field staff work with view-and-autofill on phones? Creating and editing items needs the web portals.
À la carte or SSO package? Ask TechBag to quote both routes in INR with GST for your exact seat count.
