Strong single sign on security comes packaged with simplicity in this on-premises-only solution

We do not have a huge usage load in our implementation of the product at our company. We know this because we have been working with clients and speaking with them as users and they literally have thousands of users on the product. Based on their testimonial and their lack of problems in performance, the scalability is there. In our company on our projects, we stay in the range of only hundreds of users, which is very small in comparison. As far as the number of people we require for maintenance, we are the level two maintenance with the vendor. To use and to configure on the client's side — for our clients — they really should never require in excess of one person full-time or the equivalent. Sign&Go has got a pretty low administrative requirement as far as maintenance is concerned. On our side, as far as the second level of support, I would say we get very few requests for actual issues with the product. The product stability is good. So, as far as running the maintenance on our end, we tend to only have a request is when a client needs to integrate a new workstation or do something else to expand their operations.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"I simply use the JWT from the client on the server side to process requests and push updated profile data to a database/queue as needed and end the process without having to persist data in the web server (sessions)."

"It supports identity federation, FSO and multi-tenancy."

"The most valuable feature is interface application integration, but we haven't fully used it yet. We'll need it in the future for a few potential clients."

"It's a very powerful platform. It has the ability to do the usual stuff, according to modern protocols, like OIDC and OAuth 2. But the real benefit of using the platform comes from its flexibility to enhance it with rules and, now, with what they call authentication pipelines. That is the most significant feature, as it allows you to customize everything regarding the authentication and authorization process."

"Auth0 has the best support ever."

"The most important thing for me is compliance. Everything that they have developed in Auth0 is already certified by many regulators such as ISO. So, we do not need to take care of that. We have the shared responsibility model to share assets with other products we are using in the cloud."

"It is very scalable because it provides a new environment for companies based on their number of users and other factors. The tool can take a lot of users."

"If we had to develop our own and manage it, it would take years of development and maintenance. In those terms, it’s definitely beneficial."

More Auth0 pros

"The on-premises deployment meets restrictions and the end-user is able to control all the configuration in their own IT environment."

Cons

"In the past, there was an issue with the multi-tenant where there wasn't the ability to manage them."

"This is a costly solution and the price of it should be reduced."

"I think they can do a better job in explaining what you're supposed to do next in order to correctly follow an idiomatic approach to using the solution beyond simply passing a JWT token to a server and having the server check then signature to validate the token."

"I find it surprising that there is no access to a standard user profile."

"The pricing should be lower. A reduction of 20-25% would be great."

"The Management API could be improved so it's easier to get user information."

"The price modelling is a bit confusing on the site and can be costly."

"The tool's price should be improved."

More Auth0 cons

"There is no software as a service or PaaS (Platform as a Service) offering from Ilex. The only option is on-premises integration."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am pretty happy with the pricing model of Auth0. It is very clear for me. Considering our scale, the features that we are using, and additional features that we bought, we still find it great. If you split the costs for the whole year and calculate the number of people you needed to hire, it always comes out to be much lesser than what we would have spent on building our own solution."

"The tool is cheaper compared to competing solutions. Those alternatives tended to be more expensive. Consequently, Okta purchased it because it was considerably cheaper. The solution even offered some free services while still providing excellent functionality."

"It is a relatively inexpensive product in the industry."

"There are different price levels: B2B, B2C, and enterprise. The basic plan is about $1,500 per month."

"Pricing of Auth0 is a pain point. Their pricing model is very confusing, at least for an enterprise. I don't like their pricing model. I think it's too aggressive. It's not very cheap for a service that only does authentication."
