Introduction

This is a brief guide on how to use a Bitwarden. You should all have received an email and set up your accounts by now.
If you've used a password manager such as LastPass, Dashlane or 1Password you should be happy to just get and use Bitwarden without help, just please mind the naming and organising in collections.

PassPack

You can now abandon your PassPack account and please no longer add or update passwords on there, do it on Bitwarden.
If you have updated a password in recent weeks and remember what it is please check it against Bitwarden so we have the correct credentials; only necessary for any recently updated ones.
If you have any unshared passwords in your PassPack account you will need to copy them into Bitwarden, though no business-critical password should have been unshared with the main account.
You can export and import your items.
