Which password management software is suitable for collaborative work in the IT department?
There are enikeis in the IT department who from time to time ask for passwords for certain jobs. I am interested in automating this process in the form: a column with the names of resources, a button "Get a password" and a field in which the employee describes why he needs a password, what he wants to do, and so on. Ideally, the manager would receive a notification and he could click Give / Do not give a password.

The approach is fundamentally wrong. It is necessary not to issue passwords, but to configure access to users.
Create a group that has the appropriate access to the resource.
When a user needs access, just put him in this group.
The password remains the same at all times.
This is a common practice for delimiting access rights in a corporate network.
If the network is on Windows, it raises the asset of the directory, if it has not yet been raised, and you manage all users and the distribution of rights centrally.
The guys are right, you need to radically change the structure. Enter a domain, issue a password to enikey, with certain rights, or a policy to allow users to change passwords.
If this is not possible, for money, or for other reasons, I once had to use the link:
Keepass
+ Boxcryptor + Google Drive\Dropbox
users.
If you are not concerned about any security, just use KeePass + cloud.
Comrade Sergey is right, KeePass shared via Dropbox will do.
But there is one peculiarity, when opening a file with a password database in one place, KeePass creates a lock file next to it. If you do not close it in one place, try to open it in another, it will display a message that the database is already open somewhere. Therefore, the folder where the password database is stored must be write-protected. If you have a server and don't want to buy the Enterprise version of Dropbox, you can use it for free by installing ownCloud on your server
See Vault or KeeWeb
However, these are more personal password managers. Nobody cancels the domain and access rights management.
I would like to turn to the respondents:
The person asked for advice on a system for managing passwords, he did not say that these are windows user passwords, passwords are different: wi-fi passwords, passwords for access to a specific program, database passwords, etc. etc. and not everything is solved with the help of an asset directory.
Moreover, he wrote (if I understood correctly) that we are talking about the exchange of passwords within the IT department, there was no talk of distributing them to users.
I think the most optimal would be to make a simple internal site with the required functionality. The main thing is to correctly configure it so that passwords do not float away.
