With KeePass you can open multiple instances/databases. This is especially needed when using group databases. It seems that this isn’t possible with KeeVault.

Another way to go about delivering this kind of functionality (shared/group credential storage) would be to have the ability in KeeVault to create Users and User Groups, which can then be given access to credentials based on credential tags/groups. This would be a kind of KeeVault for Teams/Business, and would be a winner product!

Thanks for the feedback. It’s something I’m considering for a future feature enhancement if there’s sufficient support for the idea.

However, the kdbx (KeePass) database format doesn’t support the concept of users/groups and the user interface complexities introduced by having multiple Vaults is a big challenge so I will focus on making the single-user experience excellent first.
