Data Type "Account" vs Credentials Type "Username/Password"

Hi!

I'm wondering if there are any significant differences between using the "Username/Password" Credential type, vs. using the "Account" data entry type?

Are there any performance advantages?

Is one recommended over there other, when the entire purpose is to store a combination of username, domain and password to be used in sessions?

Currently we have implemented most of our session credentials using the "Account" data entry, but maybe this should be converted to the Credential object/type?

We have a Devolutions server running in the background for centralized data management, which is then mounted as a datastore in RDM.
