    Okta and Auth0 are similar in a number of ways, but ultimately they serve different cases. Okta is likely the preferred option for scenarios where IT or other admin staff need the ability to control account access for other staff members.

    Great for user authentication and access priviledge management. We are using it for both our commercial and financial clients and Auth0 meets all the regulations and due diligence required to close deals with these enterprise customers. Given their tiered pricing structure, we don't see a scenario where Auth0 would not be appropriate for the solution it provides.

    Should be well-suited for a SaaS business organisation as they have a lot of internal applications and need a role-based authentication system between the various teams, improving security and audit log system to account for any breaches. It integrates well with internal applications such as Salesforce and Oracle. Best when need of SSO.

    • Integrations of Social Login are simple to configure and the Auth0 documentation shows step by step how to configure it
    • Rules/Hooks provide customization to the Auth0 flow, making it a great solution to define how we allow our users to login into our applications

    Cons
    Okta
    • Price point for ALL features can get a bit pricey. But they have a startup plan which helps big time. Developer plans start at $23/mo and do not include all features.
    • Actions, rules, hooks, and email customization are great features, but the UI is a bit tough sometimes, not very responsive to screen size and code editors are cut off in a difficult place to maneuver.

    • I do have to reset my password quite frequently. However, I don't think there is really a way to improve this, as it's a good security measure.
    • It makes me re-sign in a couple of times a day, sometimes if I haven't used my laptop for a couple of hours, and sometimes just randomly throughout the day.
    • It doesn't remember my devices, either my laptop or phone. so it always calls that out.

    Okta has a passion to provide secure and scalable identity solution. Their passion has come across as advocacy in a way that has deepened my knowledge of the field of authentication. I took identity for granted before but after seeing features such as external authentication I know that Okta can enable my business to reach new heights

    Usability
    Okta
    Like in my case, it helps me build a better business by requiring authentication and better login features, as they are needed quickly. It helps me save time by not having to create it from scratch and provides better role-based login and access. One of my most helpful features is SSO (Single Sign On). If the user wants Microsoft-able SSO, Auth0 provides an all-in-one.

    From my perspective, for the things that my group uses it for, Okta is very fast. It is as least as fast as the local password database methods that it replaces on our campus enterprise services. I do not believe that it slows anything down at all. In fact, not having to think too much about the login, because they all look the same, probably speeds things up somewhat.

    Okta
    There isn't a clear method to get a hold of support when trouble arises if you're on their standard plan. You can file a support ticket and they generally are responsive. I've often been able to find similar questions to the questions I've had when it comes to support in their ticket history, however, some have been closed without a satisfactory conclusion for the original poster.

    We've had a few support cases over the years and every case has been handled by the Okta support team beautifully. We received clear answers to questions we had regarding setup and even were provided simple to follow guides on how to setup their product to use with custom applications.

    We went with Auth0 over Okta due to price concerns and the overall simplicity of Auth0. We chose Auth0 over Amazon Cognito because Cognito has very poor documentation and client library support. Auth0 offers a service that hits the sweet spot for organizations with small development teams and limited finances.

    Okta is far superior in terms of integrations, user interface, automation, and connectivity. Additionally, Okta offers better support and availability, and a more robust solution across every capacity Entra competes in. Okta simply works, whereas Microsoft Entra has a large overhead that is difficult to use when configuring things.

    Being a cloud native application, The Okta Identity Cloud is extremely scalable and easy to setup. By integrating into existing directories and applications via standard techniques and protocols, it is very easy to both initially setup and add additional users as required. Once all the necessary integrations are setup, it's a simple rinse and repeat process to onboard additional users (which can be automated with imports as well)

    Return on Investment
    Okta
    • SAML SSO is a breeze - this alone saves a lot of dev/support hours.
    • We are not worried by hackers and chasing security protocols and standards, I guess about half a day job of a developer.
    • Telling customers we can connect them with what ever they have whether its social / SAML / OIDC put us in flexible position

    • Increased user productivity - not fighting with IT all the time!
    • Though there could be a bit more on the 'lost/broken phone' front, the self-service eliminates time that would typically be spent waiting for IT support/admins.
    • An Okta account under a certain domain allows proper access from the get-go, and under certain apps (such as our HRIS), adding members is easy.
    • Improved security - deactivating Okta removes all account access across multiple platforms instantly for leavers.
