We performed a comparison between Auth0 and WSO2 Identity Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most important thing for me is compliance. Everything that they have developed in Auth0 is already certified by many regulators such as ISO. So, we do not need to take care of that. We have the shared responsibility model to share assets with other products we are using in the cloud."
"The most valuable feature of the product is scalability."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is interface application integration, but we haven't fully used it yet. We'll need it in the future for a few potential clients."
"The valuable features are that it is extremely secure and that it's developer-friendly."
"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 has improved our organization by providing login authentication for a mobile app."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to integrate, irrespective of your codebase."
"I would rate the solution's stability eight or nine out of ten."
"The product provides easy integration between API manager and IT server components."
"Some of the valuable features of the solution are the easy integration with processes, such as Single Sign-On. Overall WSO2 is straightforward and does not need customization."
"Comprehensive ecosystem."
"It's very easy to implement everything."
"The single sign-on procedure itself, as well as the ability to connect to external user sources such as Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP servers, are the solution's most valuable features."
"The keystore feature has been most valuable for us."
"The product support for multi-tenancy could be improved."
"The product could use a more flexible administration structure"
"This is a costly solution and the price of it should be reduced."
"The tool's price should be improved."
"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."
"The Management API could be improved so it's easier to get user information."
"In the past, there was an issue with the multi-tenant where there wasn't the ability to manage them."
"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."
"Sometimes working with the code is difficult because I search for documentation about the code and how to work with the code, which is where I believe they should improve, by providing some documentation on how to work with the code."
"There needs to be a good support model and easy-to-understand documentation."
"The high availability architecture has to be improved."
"The solution could improve its development from a user perspective."
"This solution does not have BPM workflows already integrated, we had to integrate the BPM module externally. They do not provide full-featured auditing and certification modules out of the box."
"I found the initial setup to be very complex."
"This solution requires extensive knowledge to be used effectively as certain areas of its use are not user friendly."
