Overall Satisfaction with The Okta Identity Cloud

We have a mature product with a lot of users in an existing username / password login system. Auth0 made migrating that to SSO and social authentication easy. This is a big win for us for several reasons
  1. We're in the process of redesigning our entire UI. We want our customers to have the smoothest transition possible so we're keeping both the old and new versions online at the same time.
  2. Our users can login with a federated identity (Google, Microsoft, Twitter, etc) with no extra work on our part
  3. We're working on two new offshoots of our main product. With Auth0 and SSO we'll be able to easily keep our users logged in across all our products!
  • JIT (just-in-time) user migration. Auth0 lets you use simple Node scripts to check for users in an old data store when a user signs in.
  • Pre written libraries for almost any tech stack or language
  • The docs are focused on specific use cases. If you need something different it can be difficult to find the information you need.
  • Auth0 saved us months of development time on an in house SSO solution
  • Because of auth0, we were able to launch our new UI quickly and smoothly
Auth0 is a fantastic "no effort" solution for authentication. That includes username / password based authentication, social authentication, and no password authentication (OTP). Their pre-built system can save you time whether
  1. You're building a brand new web service and don't want to deal with authentication
  2. You want to add social or OTP authentication to an existing web service
  3. You want to add SSO functionality to your exiting products
