Auth0 manages the signing features for any project im working on, gives me time to focus on business logic

Nachteile

Documentation was a bit confusing to beginners

Vorteile

Security, flexability with Auth0 actions, nice interface, extensive API, and FREE TIER for developers that just starting.

Nachteile

Design options for default auth0 login page, would like to have a fully customizable html and css options
Also template customization for email could you some touch.

Vorteile

The Api is nice when it work , the ui is nice as well - when it work.
The search was good as well - when it worked.

Nachteile

Their system is not stable, they treat customer not good at all.

It's been 7 days since their system stopped working.
It's been 7 full days where i have no business because of Auth0.
It's been 2 days since Monday afternoon PST, the time were they said on their email last Thursday, that this bug should be fixed.
They forced my to pay them money to get my data back faster, but still even after paying them - no one answer my calls or email.

Please, do yourself a favor - do not start your business with Auth0!

Vorteile

Auth0 provides the top notch security layer and reliability on top of your existing workflow and makes it immune to attacks.

Nachteile

May be they can reduce their pricing a little bit so that it can become more affordable.

Vorteile

Great Digital identity solution. Good integration capabilties.

Nachteile

The pricing can be worked upon. Solutions offering for Large enterprises are lacking.

Vorteile

1) Easy to configure and use. You can easily use it in your application by adding few lines of coding.
2) Cost effective MFA for your business
3) Reliable and secured

Nachteile

We never faced any issue with Auth0 so far.

Vorteile

This software is easy to customize, works smoothly and is well documented. It’s especially useful for managing accounts and data and you can add it to your application with just a few lines of code.

Nachteile

Auth0 has worked perfectly for me with no problems and nothing bad to say about it.

Vorteile

What stands out most about Auth0 is its scalability and security.
It simplifies user management across multiple platforms with features like single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA)
It Also supports integration with enterprise identity providers (e.g., Active Directory).
For instance, it enables quick, secure access for employees across different applications, ensuring compliance.

Nachteile

One thing I liked least about Auth0 is that setting up biometric authentication and single sign-on (SSO) with multi-factor authentication (MFA) can be tricky. For example, while you can enable fingerprint login, getting it to work smoothly with SSO and MFA often requires a lot of extra steps, which can be frustrating

Vorteile

The platform places a high priority on security by including features like hashing passwords and defense against frequent attacks.

Nachteile

A steep learning curve has been mentioned by several users, especially for those who are not familiar with authorization and authentication.

Vorteile

Its user-friendly interface and quick setup.

Nachteile

Its pricing model. The free tier is quite limited.

Vorteile

What I enjoy best about Auth0 is its seamless and safe login experience. It enables simple integration with different applications, customized authentication, and single sign-on (SSO) for a seamless user experience. The UI is easy, and it offers robust security features such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), ensuring both ease and safety.

Nachteile

It provides several customization options, but the initial setup and configuration can be time-consuming for people unfamiliar with identity management systems. Furthermore, the pricing structure may not be cost-effective for smaller firms or those with simpler requirements.

Vorteile

Auth0's route.ts handler streamlines authentication and authorization processes, making it easy to manage secure routes with minimal setup time.

Nachteile

The single sign-in design for each tenant limits flexibility, especially for applications that require distinct login designs per tenant.

Vorteile

More features available as free.... Even individual learner works here very easy and useful.

Nachteile

Documentation should properly associate with our created applications.

Vorteile

The feature to customize the authentication and authorization features to the applications for a safe and secure identity and access management.

Nachteile

Nothing to dislike , its a good application.

Vorteile

How easy it is to get started on it. I have worked with python and node js on it so far and it is been really easy to set up.

Nachteile

Nothing really, maybe I could find cons as my projects grow.

Vorteile

Very easy to train and get the hang of as a user

Nachteile

documentation provided is not the best, sometimes lacks clarity

Vorteile

I subsume a comprehensive login methods, secure and very fast, it covers most the prominent frameworks and library to authenticate user.

Nachteile

The docs is so confusing somethings, you'll need to search via google.

Vorteile

Auth0 is a popular platform for authentication and authorization. It offers a wide range of features, is easy to use and integrate, and supports strong security measures.

Nachteile

Auth0 can be expensive, lead to vendor lock-in, and its complexity can be overwhelming.

Vorteile

First of all, it is very easy to set up and use. Explaining a junior the process takes few time and thanks to the API and automatic deployments it is easy to apply Auth0 as security provider for web and mobile applications. It is also very good for it's performance and reliability.

Nachteile

I found the documentation hard to understand at first, but after a few approaches I managed to work out my own workflow and then create internal documentation for my team.

Vorteile

We run it on our platform as we have various type of users. We use it for account creation and authetification, both our clients and the admin of our platform. It is a very valuable software as we can directly use it for account and data management as well. It is used for any type of actions linked to user authentification actually.

Nachteile

It seems hard to set-up for someone who never used it. I am just an admin of our platform but not of Auth0. I know that we have a part of our team who has been trained to work on everyhting linked to Auth0.

Vorteile

Auth0 does a fantastic job of taking all those hard, risky and tedious parts of making your own authentication system off your plate. Developers literally have no reason to create their own authentication system any more, it's all provided by Auth0.

Nachteile

The docs could be clearer. It's very easy to get confused or lost.
They could use slightly more user-friendly language in their documentation and management UI.
Could have more/clearer examples of best practices and common usages/implementations.

Vorteile

Auth0 is mainly a solution for authentication and authorization. And it does what it promises in that aspect, but I also find it very helpful when it comes to customer support because I can see a lot of crucial information about user activity.

Nachteile

I haven't had any problems with Auth0. I am happy with the functionality they offer and wouldn't change it.

Vorteile

Easy to use UI that allows me to answer 80% of questions about why a client's SAML integration isn't working, or why a specific user is having trouble logging in.

Nachteile

I'm a business user, not an Engineer. Every time I ask a question to Auth0 support about "How do I do X?", the answer is "Oh, easy, just use this API" - I don't want to learn how to program against an API to do basic tasks like export all the active Connections.

Vorteile

I like how easy it is to setup users in auth0. If it was any easier I wouldn't have a job anymore. It is that easy.

Nachteile

They tried to sneak a breaking change into their newest Node library, because of some critical bugs.

Vorteile

We have been using Auth0 for almost 2 years, only 2 times we saw outage and it is great! Keep Rocking!

Nachteile

I think one features missing to able customize login page per client as much as possible.

Vorteile

Auth0 is a great option for those who want a simple and secure way to manage user identities in their apps. It’s easy to use, integrates well with a wide range of services, and has strong security features, making it a great choice.

Nachteile

Pricing is high in Auth0. Advanced analytics & reporting could be more seamless.

Vorteile

Out of the box experience covers most use cases

Nachteile

If your needs are different from the out of the box experience you end up fighting against the system a lot of them to achieve basic things. Session management in Auth0 and logging information around that could be improved. New universal login is a step backwards from classic and still only requires very basic customisation.

Vorteile

What I enjoy most about Auth0 is that it is very flexible and can easily be integrated into different platforms. It is packed with numerous authentication functionalities such as Single Sign-On (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and social login that enhance the user experience intuitively. The extensive guidelines and fast configuration help promote the tool's use for even those not well-versed in identity management. Furthermore, owing to its architectural design, it ensures that it easily user verification from applications that may either be small scale or large scale.

Nachteile

A main complaint about Auth0 is their pricing model, which can be very costly in scalability with the increase in the number of users, which especially is a concern for young companies or small establishments. On the other hand, while the free version is fairly good for experimentation, the big jump for the competitive subscriptions may not be reasonable for the smaller groups. Also, the system management tools can sometimes be a bit of a mess with too many tools because sometimes it is not easy to locate particular settings within the tool.

Vorteile

What I like about Auth0 by Okta is how it seamlessly handles access and Identity management. It's scalability which allows easy changes as Organizations needs grow.
Its already pre-built MFA (Multi Factor Authentication), Social Login and the flexibility to customize them makes this a robust and secure solution for our Enterprise.
It also provides deep insights through detailed logs and dashboards which helps to track users trends.

Nachteile

Too Much updates which ends up disrupting the already designed workflows.

Vorteile

I liked how Auth0 integrates with almost all the popular authentication services like Google, Facebook, and GitHub. It also worked great when I used a simple email & password with 2FA.

Nachteile

While it is easier to implement a basic feature like email & password, when integrating with third-party services the SDKs were challenging as they lacked detailed documentation.

Vorteile

I like the one login concept means just login once and use any service provisioned by my organisation under my name. It is simple and hassle free. I find it very handy, comes with easy integration with CI/CD tools like github, microsoft shared spaces, etc. The UI is simple, easy to understand

Nachteile

The initial setup is complex followed by the costing slightly on the higher side. So not suitable for small firms. Need some initial tutorials before use.

Vorteile

What stands out is how easy it is to complete Single Sign On logins. It integrates well with Azure and Slack. All in all, it’s a reliable tool for handling authentication.

Nachteile

Auth0's dashboard is a bit cluttered with many features that aren't used a lot , making navigation a little bit challenging.

Vorteile

I love how Okta integrates with thousands of applications, enabling smooth single sign-on (SSO) experiences for our team.
The multi-factor authentication (MFA) and adaptive security measures give us peace of mind knowing that our data is protected.

Nachteile

While the basic features are straightforward, I’ve found that diving into more advanced capabilities can require a significant learning curve

Vorteile

It's very easy to implement. You won't need to change much of your code base.

Nachteile

Everything's fine so far, haven't had any major issue.

Vorteile

The integration with Auth0 is super easy and straightforward, making it a quick solution to implement for our authentication needs.

Nachteile

Some configurations can be challenging to fully understand initially, but overall, it’s been reliable and efficient to use once set up.

Vorteile

All authentication stuff is managed seamlessly by Auth0 and I only have to worry about source code.

Nachteile

I really don't find anything annoying at the moment.

Vorteile

I didn't need to build a backend for my web app as I could redirect users for secure login.

Nachteile

Had some issues when trying to assign users roles and having unique page interactions when given certain roles.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Auth0

Vorteile

I like the ease of use with integration Auth0 with my .NET Core projects. The sample apps are great and make the process easy.

Nachteile

I don't like the fact that I have to have a paying account to have separate tenants. I would like to be able to manage multiple clients using the product with one email without the need to have a paid account.

Vorteile

Flexibility, set of features, community, documentation

Nachteile

Maybe that thing that it was not obvious that plan is shared between all tenants

Vorteile

Easy to use, I like how easy is to implement authentication system

Vorteile

I know it's security I can trust. The layout of the mobile app is user friendly.

Nachteile

Pricing is little confusing and support is also a bit slow.

Vorteile

The easy interface with the site. Its easy to use, quick and secure. i configured it within 10-15 min. it was quickest among the other tried alternatives.

Nachteile

Limited service, should also provide a large database, min 500gb, in subscription and trial for create customized dashboards for the users. Also contain a dashboard in the auth0 site for the easy checking of user and easy to change their passwords.

Vorteile

Its range of features from applications for browsers to virtual machines.

Nachteile

None it is affordable and useful for any business.

Vorteile

Outsourcing security to Auth0 feels great
