Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It has improved our organization by providing login authentication for a mobile app.""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.""It has a lot of customization and out-of-the-box features.""It is easily connected and easy to put our app in single sign-on.""The most valuable feature of the product is scalability.""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.""It supports identity federation, FSO and multi-tenancy."

"I like the Microsoft Authenticator app since it comes with two-factor authentication."

More Microsoft Entra Verified ID Pros →

Cons
"The product support for multi-tenancy could be improved.""The price modelling is a bit confusing on the site and can be costly.""There are indeed areas where the product could improve. For instance, Okta offers various application configurations, enabling access management, which the tool could consider implementing.""There is a possibility to improve the machine-to-machine authentication flow. This part of Auth0 is not really well documented, and we could really gain some additional knowledge on that.""The product could use a more flexible administration structure""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.""When they introduced the Organizations feature they did support different login screens per organization. However, they introduced a dependency between this feature and another called the New Universal Login Experience. The New Experience is a more lightweight login screen, but it is much less customizable. For example, today, we are able to fully customize our login screen and even control the background image according to the time of day. We have code to do that. But we are not able to write code anymore in the New Experience."

"I must do two-factor authentication when I sign in from a different location. It creates friction. It's not personalized for the end user. I would like to see specific insights."

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

    Overview

    Auth0 is a comprehensive identity management solution that securely authenticates and authorizes users on different platforms and applications. It offers seamless integration, easy configuration, and reliable performance for managing identity and access. Users appreciate its flexibility, scalability, and support for multi-factor authentication. 

    With robust documentation and excellent customer service, Auth0 enables developers to efficiently implement authentication and authorization processes. Its valuable features include easy integration, robust security, seamless single sign-on, and customizable authentication options. Auth0 also enhances organizational operations and productivity by streamlining processes, improving collaboration and communication, reducing errors, and facilitating seamless integration with existing systems. 

    We believe the future of global identity will not be centralized in a single company or government, but rather a trust fabric of centralized and decentralized approaches. Open standards like those found in Entra Verified ID, will be required to ensure interoperability. We will leverage Microsoft’s existing penetration into F500 and governments to bootstrap and then extend from our 500M user footprint to 9B+. By leading the way, we can become the preferred provider that builds on Microsoft Entra ID's best-in-class security and compliance to now include best-in-class verifiability and privacy.
