Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The valuable features are that it is extremely secure and that it's developer-friendly."

"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."

"It offers stronger security and flexibility with API keys, which are generated on runtime."

"It has improved our organization by providing login authentication for a mobile app."

"Auth0 has the best support ever."

"It supports identity federation, FSO and multi-tenancy."

"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."

"The most important feature for me was the ease of use, as it needed to be easy to integrate into my platform."

More Auth0 pros

"The single sign-on feature is excellent."

"There are lots of options to customize the solution to your needs."

"The most valuable features of NetIQ Access Manager are SSO and Multi-Factor Authentication."

"It's very easy to integrate with applications."

"The features that we have found most valuable with NetIQ Access Manager are its single sign-on and two factor two second factor database."

Cons

"When they introduced the Organizations feature they did support different login screens per organization. However, they introduced a dependency between this feature and another called the New Universal Login Experience. The New Experience is a more lightweight login screen, but it is much less customizable. For example, today, we are able to fully customize our login screen and even control the background image according to the time of day. We have code to do that. But we are not able to write code anymore in the New Experience."

"The product support for multi-tenancy could be improved."

"If you’re not a developer, you need to spend time exploring more."

"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."

"I think they can do a better job in explaining what you're supposed to do next in order to correctly follow an idiomatic approach to using the solution beyond simply passing a JWT token to a server and having the server check then signature to validate the token."

"The tool's price should be improved."

"I find it surprising that there is no access to a standard user profile."

"Better documentation for Salesforce integration is suggested."

More Auth0 cons

"Having the ability to easily extract and view and compare and version control configurations would be ideal."

"I would love to see the upgrade procedure handled more effectively. I would prefer to have OVS installation possibilities, although the upgrade procedures should include the OS as well. You should be able to use the whole application as an appliance."

"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the security of the infrastructure and the server and the working networking device."

"Classification of junctions and new versions of applications, such as APIs, can be added to enable the use of more devices that utilize biometrics for Multi-Factor Authentication to improve the solution."

"The application portal could be improved with more options and easier customization."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

"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 price of the solution is average."
