This simplifies the process of integration, and it can be seamlessly incorporated with Azure, Kubernetes, and other software systems.""The most valuable features of Amazon Cognito are OTP validation and email validation.""The federation is one of the most efficient features as the pricing is competitive.""The most valuable features of Amazon Cognito are the pre and post-token generation, and the different Cognito triggers.

"From a technical perspective, the solution is very good we can operate and control the user by ourselves.""My company has used most features of Oracle Access Manager for various implementations, but the most helpful feature of the solution for the business and customers is single sign-on.""The MFA is the most valuable aspect.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.""The scalability of the solution is good.

Cons
"I believe this product could improve by enriching user profiles.""In a future release, we would like to have different methods to validate the characteristic of a user. For example, we would like to use biometric data to analyze the behavior of users.""The MFA related to the solution's side is nonexistent.""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.""Cognito triggers can improve by providing more direct use cases rather than giving a white paper. A white paper is not at all interesting, it has too many details. It would be a benefit to provide a smaller document that is summarized. The smaller version would bring microdata, macro data is not helpful.""Amazon Cognito could improve by simplifying the configuration.""The secure authentication of Amazon Cognito has benefited our company. We were previously using legacy signup systems.""What I found generally lacking in AWS is privileged access management (PAM)."

More Amazon Cognito Cons →

"The pricing of the solution is in need of improvement. Oracle products are very expensive.""In the next release, they should focus more on use cases related to customer access management, customer identity, and access management.""The initial implementation can definitely be improved because you have to work on several components to configure it correctly.""May not integrate easily with non-Oracle products.""The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure.""There are problems with stability.""Sometimes if a session takes too long, you have to log in again.""The technical support is not very good at all."

    Overview

    Amazon Cognito is a simple user identity and data synchronization service that helps you securely manage and synchronize app data for your users across their mobile devices. You can create unique identities for your users through a number of public login providers (Amazon, Facebook, and Google) and also support unauthenticated guests. You can save app data locally on users’ devices allowing your applications to work even when the devices are offline. With Amazon Cognito, you can save any kind of data in the AWS Cloud, such as app preferences or game state, without writing any backend code or managing any infrastructure. This means you can focus on creating great app experiences instead of having to worry about building and managing a backend solution to handle identity management, network state, storage, and sync.

    Oracle Access Manager delivers risk-aware end-to-end user authentication, single sign-on, and authorization protection, enabling enterprises to secure access from mobile devices and seamlessly integrate social identities with applications.
