Identity workflows have transformed how we secure logins and manage user access daily
There are different elements to the best features Auth0 Platform offers, and I have touched on them, particularly the ability to help applications authenticate and authorize their users and manage their identities. A big point is identity federation, allowing connections across multiple identity providers, enabling users to log in using existing accounts due to databases and enterprise identity systems. A strong security feature is provided, particularly with their MFA, multi-factor authentication, which includes bot detection and brute-force protection, along with breached password detection, which is really good as an added extra. Auth0 Platform has positively impacted our organization, particularly in terms of usability. While we are not selling it directly, I find the platform easy to use for authenticating different users. Our own services team handles the implementation, so I cannot comment on the ease of that process. However, whenever we have had contracts and bids to roll out services, it has been really easy. We have seen improved security due to the implementation of Auth0 Platform. User management, such as creating and deleting users, is all about enhancing the user experience, which is massive. We assist with password resets and account linking. The time to implement is shorter, and we maintain a consistent user experience with a secure login flow, benefiting from a faster implementation due to the universal login, providing a hosted login page customizable by developers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The measurable improvements I have seen in scalability, security, and velocity since implementing Auth0 are mostly that I don't have to worry about adding new features because a lot of features are available out of the box when it comes to identity-related features."
"After migrating to Auth0 from a custom authentication system, we noticed substantial improvements in developer productivity, auth-related implementations, and reduced login flow flaky tests."
"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 offers stronger security and flexibility with API keys, which are generated on runtime."
"This is much better because everything is wrapped and normalized through one service."
"Auth0 Platform offers excellent integration with modern web and mobile applications, allowing our brands to deliver new products easily and conveniently, helping them stay up-to-date with industry standard authentication platforms and facilitating the delivery of new features through straightforward integration with continuous integration and continuous delivery processes."
"We did a case study on Auth0, and we had a 300% return on investment in terms of money."
"There have been many improvements in our cloud technology since we are using Auth0 Platform, and it reduces our development time while providing many features to integrate and utilize so that everything is available in one place and we can develop our application faster, which minimizes our time and maximizes utilization."
"SAP CDC is very easy to use and the best part about this tool is its documentation."
"In our first year using the product we were able to save over double the cost of the product in vendor and maintenance fees."
"It has enhanced the security and customer satisfaction of our customers."
 

Cons

"The product support for multi-tenancy could be improved further, and advanced authorization capabilities could be included in the next release."
"The reporting in Auth0 Platform could use improvement."
"Even now, it is a pain to back up to an offline location or it is hard to back up everything to your own data center or your own location."
"The only downside to them is the pricing, which is a bit expensive."
"The pricing should be lower. A reduction of 20-25% would be great."
"Our experience with customer service has been a mixed bag."
"Regarding improvements for Auth0 Platform, during the last time I used it, I observed that during log analysis or when using the search or filter options, I missed some features."
"If you’re not a developer, you need to spend time exploring more."
"I would like to see Gigya implement additional disaster recovery systems."
"The user access and authorization features need to be improved. I have struggled to give different access to different users in the same application."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"There are different price levels: B2B, B2C, and enterprise. The basic plan is about $1,500 per month."
"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."
"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."
"It is a relatively inexpensive product in the industry."
