It is easily connected and easy to put our app in single sign-on. For example, Auth0 is easy to bring connections for mobile devices and has good documentation.

With Auth0, you can stop the effort of having to keep up with the progress being made in the security and authentication world, like better protocols, better encryption, and better ways to connect with other systems. It's all managed in Auth0. At the organizational level, you stop worrying about how to connect Facebook users to your application, or how to connect with a customer's internal authentication system to log in to your systems. These were questions that, three years ago, we decided to develop answers for ourselves, but with Auth0, each integration now comes out-of-the-box, and it's only a matter of configuration.

We are now able to dockerize stateless containers quote easily. A typical solution for managing session data is to put it into a database, but now we don't need to do that either. Auth0 essentially acts as the database backend. However, unlike regular session management through a database, whereby one needs to touch the database every time to re-hydrate session data for every request, I only make requests to Auth0 to query for profile data when needed, thus making the application more efficient.

I was able to pass the ISO audit smoothly. When they asked me for identity management, I just told them that it is Auth0, and it was passed. So, it has helped with compliance.

We are using Auth0 Rules during the authentication process to contact our internal APIs and extend the token that Auth0 generates with additional information that comes from our database. Auth0 Rules are pretty important because by using Auth0 Rules, we are able to shorten the development time. We didn't need to do any workarounds and so on. We could quickly deploy some code into Auth0, and our use case was covered in less than one day. We are also using Actions, which is the new thing that came after Rules and Hooks.

It provides the flexibility and the customizability that we need. I did a webinar on Auth0 in AWS, and I said that we know that the software-as-a-service products are not designed to cover 100% of use cases. They are just trying to solve 90% of them, but with Auth0's Rules engine, Actions engine, and many different features, I am able to code something around Auth0. So, I can bend the existing functionality exactly for my use case. For me, this extensibility of the software or the software as a service model is very important because then I know that I won't face any roadblocks that I cannot really go around.

It allows us to tailor the user experience flow. We find the user experience with Auth0 really great, and we could customize it exactly as per our needs. The new features that they released during the last year since we have signed the contract have been helpful. The additional hosted login page that splits the authentication into two different steps and the Auth0 organization features are really great for us.

It has saved us the development time and money by not having to deal with authentication or identity management. It has shortened the development time and saved a lot of money for us. We did a case study on Auth0, and we had a 300% return on investment in terms of money. We have also reduced the development time by about two months. We also don't need people dedicated to our own solution, which is an ongoing process of saving money.

It has helped us in setting up authentication without having to hire additional staff. We were able to do that with our own resources. We don't need to have a dedicated team that is working only on identity management.
