Simplified integration with helpful support and decent pricing
Auth0 is used as an identity provider for our new SaaS platform to manage the identity of users Auth0 is cost-effective because it provides all the features we need, and it was very easy to integrate into our platform. The documentation is comprehensive, and their support team is highly helpful.…

Offers robustness and ease of use
The product improves our organization's daily healthcare tasks since the use of the tool reduces a lot of support calls, and its users remember many passports that keep on changing. Writing down the passwords somewhere would compromise the security of the system. In our company, the product streamlines access to critical applications and makes it more secure. The management of the system becomes easy with the product. With the product, you can also decide on the strength of the policy you need for your environment. It also helps in the area of authentication credentials. With the product in place, users need to remember fewer passwords, which makes an organization's environment much more secure. The product has improved productivity in the sense that users are now able to manage the tool on their own without having to wait for IT support. IT teams also have to handle fewer support calls and can focus on more value addition in other areas. I recommend the product to others who plan to use it. I suggest that it is always better to use the product's SSO capabilities since it provides security. With SSO capabilities, if you can use multi-factor authentication, you can add a second layer of security to make your system safer and free from attacks. The product's integration capabilities with existing healthcare infrastructure are good. The secure access provided by the product has helped all the applications in our company where security is required. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

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."
"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."
"It is easily connected and easy to put our app in single sign-on."
"The most important feature for me was the ease of use, as it needed to be easy to integrate into my platform."
"The valuable features are that it is extremely secure and that it's developer-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to integrate, irrespective of your codebase."
"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 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."
"Security is the best feature of Microsoft Azure Sentinel. It has its own base security. Our customers like that the security is available in Azure."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its ease of use and its robustness."
 

Cons

"If you’re not a developer, you need to spend time exploring more."
"The price modelling is a bit confusing on the site and can be costly."
"In the past, there was an issue with the multi-tenant where there wasn't the ability to manage them."
"I find it surprising that there is no access to a standard user profile."
"Better documentation for Salesforce integration is suggested."
"The product support for multi-tenancy could be improved."
"The Management API could be improved so it's easier to get user information."
"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."
"We had some feedback from customers who have said it was a confusing product. The product is confusing to use for the end-user. For example, they do not know how to migrate the Azure Sentinel, but others have liked the product that has started working on it."
"The shortcomings in the stability need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"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."
"Users need to pay either annually or on a multi-year basis towards the licensing costs of the product."
