We'll need it in the future for a few potential clients."
"It has improved our organization by providing login authentication for a mobile app."
"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'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."

"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."
"In the past, there was an issue with the multi-tenant where there wasn't the ability to manage them."
"It requires some expertise to set up and manage."
"Notifications and monitoring are two areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
