Great technical support, excellent webhooks, and has been very stable
We are using a hybrid deployment model with as much infrastructure off of Frontegg's servers as possible. It's my understanding that we were one of the first customers to do this due to the fact that the setup was not documented well or intuitive. Luckily, Frontegg's developers were very flexible and willing to help work through the process.

I have touched on generative AI and integrations like SOAP APIs. I have used the Ping Identity Platform for seamless…

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."
"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."
"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."
"I find the auto-discovery feature the most valuable. It helps us automate a lot of things using a single password across applications."
"The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It offers robust features and customization options that justify the cost."
"I like PingFederate."
"We use the product to run different reports."
"I work on the application onboarding process because we have multiple customers and get data from different sources."
"The only feature we were looking for in PingID was SSO integration with our existing web app."
 

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."
"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.‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎"
"We're hoping to see more user management-related features, according to Frontegg's roadmap."
"Frontegg is fairly stable, however, we are looking forward to some promised capabilities, such as more tightly integrated Feature Flag support."
"We really like the ability to add the same user across tenants. From a UX perspective, the flow can be betterized."
"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."
"We can choose a drop-down to search for which certificate we have to create, which is difficult."
"One significant challenge was ensuring smooth user migration during system upgrades in Ping."
"The timing of the token validity, if it could be extended, would be great. I'm not sure if there is even an option to configure these types of settings."
"PingAccess can only have one token provider, and you cannot enable two different token providers simultaneously."
"There is room for improvement in the solution, particularly in security."
"Notifications and monitoring are two areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
"Currently, the main integration is SAML-based, but other integration methodologies need to be supported."
"We have encountered instances where it is not easy to do authentication."
