Auth0 Platform An In Depth Review
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I used Auth0 as a primary IDP for our Kong API Gateway and it solved these business problems -
1. It centralised the access system and removed the need of having a on Prem Directory.
2. It helped us in using Auth0 effectively and efficiently by allowing us to use its API's.
3. Its Auth0 actions helped us in scripting and extract the exact output we wanted.
Pros
- It works exceptionally well in providing the RBAC also known as Role Based Access Control.
- Its APIs works flawlessly and are so easy to integrate.
- Its Actions features is a really great add on to extract the best of it.
Cons
- Its UI can be improved and made something like Okta.
- It should support more languages in Auth0 actions.
Likelihood to Recommend
It's really well suited when we have environment of multiple tools and applications and we want to have a centralised Access centre instead of having one made by us and apart from that it's really helpful for me when I wanted to implement Auth0 2.0 in Kong API gateway.
