Keeping track of customer's credentials, etc.
-
I have 1Password on my phone and it gets used the most. Of course it is easier to type notes and documentation on a laptop....

Rather than place, how about format?
Does anyone have a nice template for keeping track of IP's, Passwords, Network info, etc.
I am using Google Docs right now (thinking about going WIKI) but format is the greatest issue I am having to deal with.

Big fans of https://keepass.info/
It improved how our department runs more than anything else we did in 2015.
Keep a master file on your file storage and everyone gets a copy on their desktop (so they can't mess up the master & always have an offline copy). Make a batch script that copies and overwrites it on their desktop and set it to run every Monday morning (or whatever is appropriate) to keep everyone updated.

sult or have to keep track of info for customers such as logins, IP info, etc... I have tried many different things (spreadsheets, password managers, hand written notes) but none seem to cover all bases except general notes. Trying to get more organized. I don't need a full CRM. What tool have you found useful?
I use 1 Password since I am dealing with credentials I need to keep them encrypted. WHile documentation is on a wiki as others have noted.
Encryption here is a strawman. You always have access to the unencrypted password. So there is not point to saying it must be encrypted.
There is no reason that a wiki that is secured properly is not valid for something like this.

That's what makes LastPass and BitWarden awesome - full access while on a desktop to the same set of sync'ed data

How does that look in O365? It's just a system that's protected by authentication access.

User ACLs and securying the platform.

That's totally understandable, and I know where we are going on this.
