App ID is great if you use IBM Cloud Functions
Instead of creating our own auth server, or using a third-party solution, we used IBM App ID since it is relatively simple considering our use case did not need the additional features of other providers. It also plays nicely with our app, as our backend is run on IBM Cloud Functions, so being able to keep the auth server and app backend on one vendor saves a lot of administrative effort.
- Uses OIDC/OAuth, so the protocols for accessing user info and token management is familiar
- Clear pricing model
- API binds nicely with IBM Cloud Functions
- Billed as part of our IBM Cloud, along with our other services
- Front-end SDK for Vue, works well
- API reference lacks examples
- Social login limited only to Facebook and Google
- Only logo is customisable in ready-made sign-in interface
However, for applications with high usage, public-facing with lots of auth events, the per-login pricing may not make App ID suitable.
Experience of using IBM Cloud App from a mobile app

- Protection of backend resources
- Profiling of users to specific roles
- Storage of user personal information
- Easy the location of user profiles by username without going the UUID.
- Improve the sample "password management" program
- Password management instead of creating an own system or process.
- Password enforcement policies
- Protecting backend microservices

Easy to use for cloud development and security

- Secured, as we don't need to expose any of the SAM security credentials.
- Login/logout set-up in the application is easy and smooth.
- Straight forward examples in different programming languages like JS/node, Java and others would help developers set-up applications faster.
