So, in answer to your question, I have used Ascendo Datavault for 20 years (at least). It will generate passwords for you no matter how intricate or how many characters. Otherwise, it is probably "no frills," but it works and is very reliable.

I use PasswordSafe. It's a freebie https://www.pwsafe.org/
