We performed a comparison between Auth0 and Fortinet FortiAuthenticator based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of the product is scalability."
"The valuable features are that it is extremely secure and that it's developer-friendly."
"It is very scalable because it provides a new environment for companies based on their number of users and other factors. The tool can take a lot of users."
"It supports identity federation, FSO and multi-tenancy."
"It has improved our organization by providing login authentication for a mobile app."
"It's a very powerful platform. It has the ability to do the usual stuff, according to modern protocols, like OIDC and OAuth 2. But the real benefit of using the platform comes from its flexibility to enhance it with rules and, now, with what they call authentication pipelines. That is the most significant feature, as it allows you to customize everything regarding the authentication and authorization process."
"I simply use the JWT from the client on the server side to process requests and push updated profile data to a database/queue as needed and end the process without having to persist data in the web server (sessions)."
"It is easily connected and easy to put our app in single sign-on."
"The current version is stable...Scalability-wise, it is a fine solution"
"It integrates very tightly with the rest of the Fortinet ecosystem."
"The product is stable and reliable."
"Intuitive interface and easy to deploy."
"The product’s most valuable feature is integration with FortiGate, FortiToken, FortiTalk, and multi-factor authentication."
"The logs have great detail that make it easier to evaluate and control the security environment."
"The first valuable feature is being able to see everything on one platform. This includes logs and authentication failure."
"This is a scalable product."
"There could be easy integration with IoT devices for the product."
"There are indeed areas where the product could improve. For instance, Okta offers various application configurations, enabling access management, which the tool could consider implementing."
"This is a costly solution and the price of it should be reduced."
"The tool's price should be improved."
"I think they can do a better job in explaining what you're supposed to do next in order to correctly follow an idiomatic approach to using the solution beyond simply passing a JWT token to a server and having the server check then signature to validate the token."
"The product could use a more flexible administration structure"
"The price modelling is a bit confusing on the site and can be costly."
"The Management API could be improved so it's easier to get user information."
"Improvements in the product could start from the dashboard, overall customization, and configuration."
"The product must provide full support for third-party FIDO security keys."
"It can not use SQL to query FortiAnalyzer directly."
"Integration with some other enterprise applications could be improved."
"I would like to see integration and customization capabilities with the end-user portal to solve authentication issues with diverse implementation scenarios."
"There is a room for improvement. The log is a bit difficult to access, and searching the log codes is also a bit difficult. So it would be much better if, when we open a log, it could provide detailed information about errors, reasons for failure, and such."
"There are some protocols, such as SHA and SHA-2, that are not supported."
"The solution could be more automated. It should be able to let me automate a lot of things so that what normally is done as a matter of manual processes can be handled quicker. Slow integrations can be taken up/out if there was more automation."
