The Okta Identity Cloud

Well suited:

• Regulatory compliance
• Complex products
• Multi tenants
• And even if not, by delegating the authentication to Auth0, you can focus more on your business logic instead of inventing the wheel again

When you need faster Oauth2 setup without worrying about a lot of technical details, Auth0 [is] a good fit. It is also highly scalable. Our product's user volume is only few thousands but the system can handle much larger loads easily. One of the other core features is the easy setup for federated SSO. Most of our users comes through our partner organizations and need the federated SSO though their employers.

Auth0 has been my top choice when it comes to an authentication provider for the past 4 years or so across different organizations due to it's simple to use and simple to set-up experience.

Auth0 is great at RBAC, making it easy to create roles and permissions, and assign them to users. The Auth0 Pipeline and Actions are a great tool to configure and customize flows for users. Applications are easy to configure and have amazing documentation supporting the customers. One downside is still the backup policy and data recovery policy, which are not supported by Auth0 - it's the customer's responsibility to create a way of backing up data from Auth0, and how to deal with recreating all users.

Best used in scenarios where apps are desired to be stood up quickly. High sprint velocity makes it desirable to move ahead with SAAS Security offerings like Auth0.

I would recommend Okta to any business- small or large. It is an easy to implement and manage tool that simplifies the experience of logging in to multiple applications with an extra layer of security with MFA. On the admin side, Okta is highly customizable and ensures you can deliver the exact user experience required for a company.

The Okta Identity Cloud is perfect for secure access to systems that contain sensitive information.

Okta is a great tool for a company at an enterprise level, small businesses might find okta not suitable for their needs.
Okta also offers a practical way to set our apps and organize them, I see that localization is also something the company can do, so it's recommended to large corporations. It has a very useful app.

It is well suited to provide enterprise SSO services for secure authentication.

Whenever you have a situation where you have a need for SSO (multiple applications) or would need to quickly enable features such as social login, MFA & enterprise login, Auth0 would be the best fit. If you have a single web product with a username/password login, you are most likely better off building your own.

Auth0 is very well suited for situations where a JSON web token can be used for authorizing APIs, websites, and mobile devices. It's especially useful if the JWT validation can happen at a gateway layer. It's especially useful if you only need to verify the user's email address or mobile number as the passwordless login is easy to implement.

Well suited if you want a all in one solution for your SSO in the cloud. Also one of the few cloud offers that have an option to include an on-premises Active Directory, which is essential in a business context.
It's not appropriate if you want to configure SSO for another company though. It's possible but not really supported.

Auth0 is perfect for when you need to set up Enterprise level SSO connections with minimal effort.

I'm happy for using it.

The Okta Identity Cloud is best suited for anyone working in a remote environment or uses web based applications. In this day and age where more and more people are working remotely, having a secure log in method is a must have in all scenarios. The use of any MFA solution is best practice

Auth0 is ideal if you are looking for an [out-of-box] Authentication (Authentication as a service). This is an already developed stable framework and prevents you from having to reinvent the wheel. It also allows for a lot of flexibility along with the [plug-and-play] feature making it easily workable for both developers and non-developer folks to understand.

Auth0 is really great if you're just starting out building a product. It really saves a lot of time and work. I've implemented a user-service in a million places and it's always the same--the register-login-confirm-email-forgot-password flow. Using Auth0 saves you all that, and you can get up and running in no time, getting a lot of advanced features very quickly and easily.

Auth0 wouldn't really suit you if you already have a working system with your own user database. It might be less appropriate for privacy-intensive applications, as the user data isn't really data you'd like to share or have outside of your own infrastructure.

I think Auth0 has very good capability and it can be used in most scenarios that require identity management. For example, business to business, business to consumer, etc.

Corporations can also use it for internal purposes like single sign on for employees. But I guess most corporations may already have the complete office solutions like Microsoft/Google, so using another vendor just for SSO may not be the best option.

I'm not sure about this.

Okta is excellent for large enterprises that require an added level of security of all their system accesses. Okta's single sign-on improves productivity for the company as it eliminates the need for constant helpdesk password resets. Okta is particularly well suited to organizations that have authorization hierarchy and require various levels of authorizations and access for its users. Okta isn't really for medium to small businesses with a small number of users as the initial integration as well as the monthly recurring costs can add up pretty fast.

Auth0 is mainly a solution for authentication and authorization. And it does what it promises in that aspect, but I also find it very helpful when it comes to customer support because I can see a lot of crucial information about user activity. So we have allowed our customer services team members to access auth0 backend log files for troubleshooting user login issues, etc. And the backend administration site is fairly easy to understand. Metadata along with Rules and Hooks allow for flexibility for token generation . Multiple ways to authenticate.

Very well-built platform suitable for any organization who wants to make life easier and they ops dev sleep well at night. It provides excellent support and will meet industry standards. The only downside is its price going up every once in a while. That's why I give it 9.

Auth0 solved just about every issue we were facing when it came to Authentication and Identity management. I was spending an embarrassing amount of time trying to "roll-my-own auth." I found more and more that I was spending a lot of time in the Auth0 docs trying to learn best practices and realized "hey, why am I not just using this product." If you are trying to solve problems in this area of your business, Auth0 is the best choice that I could find.

I think Auth0 is well suited to most scenarios where authorisation and authentication is required. It seems to scale well, both in volume as well as in functionality. Maybe for the most simple use cases it is a bit too much, but generally speaking it should be great to use.

Auth0 is far from perfect and it is not cheap. However I believe it is the best solution in existence for developers looking to start a project without having to worry about the security details of their signup/login flow. They are developer oriented and provide many resources and integrations.
