Amazon Cognito Reviews

What is our primary use case?

We use AWS Cognito for authentication and authorization of our system. We use Cognito alongside Okta. Because of the high cost of Okta, we have a hybrid model of both solutions. 

What is most valuable?

The federation is one of the most efficient features as the pricing is competitive.

What needs improvement?

The ease and simplicity of integration could be improved when using this solution. When using Okta, scope is a single endpoint with a parameter as a scope. In the Cognito for each scope, there is a separate endpoint.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a stable solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

This is a scalable solution. 

How are customer service and support?

We are premium customers of AWS, so we get support in a very efficient way.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing of this solution is good compared to other solutions on the market. 

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend Cognito for users who are already AWS customers. Cognito will provide inbuilt authentication on operation for those services and capabilities in a cost-efficient manner. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
