1. Lack of a master password, so anyone who knows the password to your laptop knows all your passwords

2. Inability to access them anywhere, anytime

3. Possibility of compromise in case of compromise of system[1]

4. No sharing

5. Absolutely terrible password generation (a string of random characters)
