Whenever you need to provide Security Provider functionality for a web based application it is well suited. You can also integrate with other directory services (e.g. SAML, Facebook, Google), but not so easily with other Auth0 based services. The customization of the login page is very intuitive, but does not allow much customisation. using the integrated Cloud Directory, you do not need to integrate with existing security providers and you can build up your own user base - including Multi-Factor Authentication settings and password policies.

I have been using it from the past 1-2 years and am really enjoying it. If multiple organizations start using it, it becomes more universal. TrustID software can be used for multiple purposes like Biometric Scanners, ID scanners, etc. TrustID has gained popularity in multiple different universities and departments and so, I recommend it to others as well.
