Customer reviews
Identity platform has secured our cloud APIs and now protects AI and microservices reliably
What is our primary use case?
We are a review website for enterprise IT. We publish reviews for other people to read, either publicly or anonymously, and we also work directly with vendors. The vendors for Auth0 Platform are Okta, and we are working with them. They read these reviews to better understand what is right and what is wrong with their product.
What is most valuable?
Our main idea is to help vendors understand their product better through direct feedback from users.

Critical Issues Overshadow User-Friendly Interface
Identity management we built once and never had to rebuild
Centralized authentication has improved security, streamlined roles, and accelerated testing
What is our primary use case?
I have been using Auth0 Platform for more than a year for authorizations, login, and sign-up functionality in my application for my current project.
My main use case for Auth0 Platform involves registering all existing users to Auth0 and onboarding new companies and users, which all feed into Auth0. When I need to update any organizational units, such as the name or trading name, I use Auth0. If I need to change the MFA for any existing user or to check roles and permissions granted to a particular user, I use Auth0.
As a software engineer, I do not use Auth0 that often; I work with the basic, generic flow which I have already mentioned. The developers in my company would use Auth0 on a day-to-day basis. I have used it to handle login, signups, and user identities, so it is a nice tool to work with.
What is most valuable?
Auth0 Platform offers good security features, such as MFA, and the role-based access that can be granted to users is easy to manage with a dropdown and simple access to different permissions and roles. There were times when there was an issue logging in a user, so I had to reset the MFA, and it was straightforward, taking less than a second to complete. These three features are particularly valuable.
The role-based access feature impacts my daily tasks the most because when we onboard a new company, that company needs to be approved by the company admin user. If the user does not have those rights, then the new company would not be able to perform any other task in the product. The role feature was a major breakthrough and was straightforward to use.
The measurable improvements I have seen since implementing Auth0 include faster feature deliveries for developers with fewer auth-related bugs. We have never been uncertain regarding user security, and the traffic has been great without downtime. Auth0 provides 100% centralized authentication, which reduces unauthorized access. The MFA adoption increased by 60 to 70%, and automation shifted from UI-based to token-based authentication using Auth0, reducing test execution time by 20 to 30% and eliminating most flaky tests related to login flows. After migrating to Auth0 from a custom authentication system, we noticed substantial improvements in developer productivity, auth-related implementations, and reduced login flow flaky tests.
What needs improvement?
I find the process of managing roles, permissions, or MFA changes in Auth0 to be straightforward; it has a very user-friendly UI. However, at times I find it difficult to understand the role. In my previous experience a couple of months ago, I checked and the permissions assigned to the user were not working, but then I had to update it by going to its company and then providing the particular permissions. That was one thing I found as a limitation of Auth0, but apart from that, Auth0's UI is very user-friendly and easy to navigate.
I think additional documentation would be beneficial for Auth0.
Now that I am switching into automation, token handling is needed from Auth0, as well as session handling and error handling with invalid and expired tokens. A better layout or a better way to handle those would be helpful. Additionally, improvements can be made around the authorization code flow, refresh tokens, and expired tokens.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Auth0 Platform has been highly stable and reliable in my experience; I have never faced downtime or technical issues. It handles increased loads and more users very well, and there may be occasional minor issues, but those are rare and do not significantly impact users. Overall, the platform has proven to be dependable and highly scalable, successfully managing increased traffic due to its stateless JWT-based authentication.
How are customer service and support?
I personally do not reach out to Auth0 Platform customer support because developers or the customer support team handle that for us. However, in minor cases, we did reach out, and they were proactive in replying and helping us. My experience was good.
What other advice do I have?
Security incidents related to the companies and users we onboarded were an issue, as they were not able to access the platform. Debugging that using Auth0 Platform was very effective, and we previously were not using one of the features of Auth0 Platform, but now we are using it and really enjoying it.
My advice for teams considering Auth0 Platform would be to clearly understand the authentication and authorization requirements before implementation. Auth0 Platform is a powerful tool, so it is essential to configure it correctly and use it wisely, especially around token usage, roles, and security policy. I would recommend investing time to understand Auth0 Platform 2.0 and JWT flows. From a testing and performance standpoint, using token-based authentication instead of UI can significantly improve automation speed and reliability. Overall, I believe Auth0 Platform is a great choice, but it should be implemented thoughtfully with proper planning in mind. I would rate this product a 9.
Identity platform has simplified social logins and has accelerated travel app development
What is our primary use case?
My use case is mostly identity management. I used Auth0 Platform to build my personal projects, and they have a very good free tier, so I just use Auth0 Platform to add identity, such as login boxes to my apps.
The industry that my applications serve is travel-related, so it is mostly for end users, not a B2B application. I am building a trip planning app, and it will be a travel industry application.
What is most valuable?
The best features in Auth0 Platform are the social login aspect because they have a lot of out-of-the-box integration and also they have something called Actions, which allows doing different file logins in itself. Actions is another feature I really appreciate.
The secure APIs, the microservices, the serverless applications, and the workloads impact my cloud environment because most of the hosting is done on Auth0 Platform itself, and the Actions I mentioned is where I can write microservices to connect to my other APIs or my backend system, providing quite an intuitive interface. They use JavaScript, which is the language I am also familiar with, so that makes it easy.
The measurable improvements I have seen in scalability, security, and velocity since implementing Auth0 are mostly that I don't have to worry about adding new features because a lot of features are available out of the box when it comes to identity-related features. Rather than me thinking about how to build it from scratch, I just have to search whether this is something supported by Auth0, and more often than not, the answer is affirmative, and then I just have to find out how to enable it and it is done.
What needs improvement?
In Auth0 Platform, one area that has room for improvement is on-premises deployment because one major thing that I see some other vendors do is give on-premises deployment, basically allowing me to have my own version of Auth0. Auth0 currently does not offer that; it is just a SaaS offering. That is something they could add, but other than that, they cover most of the boxes for my requirements.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the solution for almost three years since 2023.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate the stability at ten. It is definitely stable; I have not had any issues at all.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I find it scalable for my business. So far, so good, as I have not had any issues and I do not think there will be scalability issues because they offer a free tier for twenty-five thousand users. Until I reach that number, I think I am good.
How are customer service and support?
I would rate the technical support at nine or ten; I would say nine because most documentation is up-to-date and I can get answers in their forums. When I need to get support on something which is not there, then it takes some time, such as one to three days at times to get a response.
How was the initial setup?
The deployment is easy; since it is a SaaS offering, I do not need to push any updates or anything of that nature.
Auth0 Platform from my end does not require maintenance. I cannot worry about authentication and I just focus on building my own plans.
What was our ROI?
The return on investment I have seen is that it has saved me quite a lot of time which would have instead gone into implementation, as they have good documentation and quite a few quick starts and examples. I can just give tools such as Cursor or Claude the link to those documentations, and they help add Auth0 Platform to my project, so a lot of time has been saved on implementation.
I estimate it is at least twenty to thirty percent because that part would have involved me writing application code, but that I offloaded to Auth0 Platform. At least thirty percent I would estimate.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I would compare Auth0 Platform to other solutions, and I think on the UI side, they are definitely one of the better ones, and they have good documentation. The only downside to them is the pricing, which is a bit expensive.
Regarding the pricing, it is expensive, but I will say the value comes when you use most of its features. Then you can make value out of that price. If you are just using it for basic login and just MFA, then the pricing might be too much and there are other vendors out there who might be better suited.
What other advice do I have?
Approximately three hundred users use Auth0 Platform right now because it is in beta, so I am just testing with a closed group.
I would advise others looking to implement this product that if they do not have any on-premises regulatory requirements, they can definitely look at Auth0 Platform, as they have a really good developer ecosystem. Someone can just download their example projects and play around with it and if it fits the purpose, go ahead. I would highly recommend that. I give this product a review rating of nine.
