Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Every feature is multi-tenant by design, making different customer requests effortless to provide.""We like the SSO, permissions and roles, multiple workspaces, and react login components.""The MFA policy via Frontegg allows us to enable/disable/enforce the Multi-Factor Authentication policy of our users and to enhance security and adhere to modern standards.""It has Audit Log and many cool features that if we were to develop them by ourselves, it would require a lot of research and development resources. Frontegg gives us everything we need to ensure that our customers have a safe and reliable authentication system in which they can also manage some of the features and roles by themself which gives them more control over their environment.""The admin portal layer is super useful and saves valuable front-end development time.""Their developers were always willing to meet even though we are in very different time zones."

"It's very easy to implement everything.""I would rate the solution's stability eight or nine out of ten.""The keystore feature has been most valuable for us.""The product provides easy integration between API manager and IT server components.""The single sign-on procedure itself, as well as the ability to connect to external user sources such as Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP servers, are the solution's most valuable features.""Comprehensive ecosystem.""Some of the valuable features of the solution are the easy integration with processes, such as Single Sign-On. Overall WSO2 is straightforward and does not need customization."

Cons
"The web interface is missing a way to delete a workspace. I have accidentally created a workspace and was not able to delete it. It's a minor thing that should be supported.""It would be nice to have a backup export with all tenant/users so that in case of a mistake we can have the option to restore the users.""The PHP SDK is limited. It's not a huge deal as we can just use their web API directly, but it is something to note if you're using PHP.‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎""Frontegg is fairly stable, however, we are looking forward to some promised capabilities, such as more tightly integrated Feature Flag support.""We're hoping to see more user management-related features, according to Frontegg's roadmap.""We really like the ability to add the same user across tenants. From a UX perspective, the flow can be betterized."

More Frontegg Cons →

"The high availability architecture has to be improved.""There needs to be a good support model and easy-to-understand documentation.""I found the initial setup to be very complex.""The solution could improve its development from a user perspective.""Sometimes working with the code is difficult because I search for documentation about the code and how to work with the code, which is where I believe they should improve, by providing some documentation on how to work with the code.""This solution requires extensive knowledge to be used effectively as certain areas of its use are not user friendly.""This solution does not have BPM workflows already integrated, we had to integrate the BPM module externally. They do not provide full-featured auditing and certification modules out of the box."
