Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Cognito
Since our department focuses on cloud development, we used Amazon Cognito to implement an access system for our application, which required a strict policy from our security team and also a custom challenge to allow the user to log in with a custom access flow through connections from other services and databases.
Pros
- Easy implementation
- Fast login
- Easy to use
Cons
- lack of customization of security policy
- The UI could be better
- Very cheap
- Secure
- Time savings
Amazon Cognito is a better-known service with extensive documentation and a large community. IBM App ID is more limited and simpler as a service, but it allows for easier and better password policy customization than Amazon Cognito.
