I would use the IBM Cloud App ID if the clients wanted to utilize their app/services instead of the traditional Cloud services such as AWS, GCP, Azure. IBM Cloud with the use of App ID would definitely be the choice other than traditional cloud services. Besides, IBM cloud offers a unique type of services other than the traditional services such as AWS, GCP, Azure.

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.

IBM Cloud App ID is highly useful for websites and applications (internal or external both), where login or user authentication is required. It offers features like Multi-Factor Authentication and Single Sign-On, which makes it more useful and secure. SSO is highly useful for internal applications within the website. IBM Cloud App ID is not so useful where Social Media login is required or preferred.

For applications with infrequent auth events, especially those built on IBM stack, this is a good option. Comparable to Auth0. If you are creating an internal tool and just need basic auth functionality, this is also good.

However, for applications with high usage, public-facing with lots of auth events, the per-login pricing may not make App ID suitable.

IBM App ID is well-suited in scenarios where you need to enhance security and authentication, email/password verification, and SDKs. For example, if you are developing an application that will require logins - IBM App ID will be incredibly useful in the authentication of that information. Additionally, when developing using this, the API guides are thoughtful and concise to provide a plethora of helpful tips and information to properly use it.
