Great partners in auth

  • January 12, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Excellent documentation, functionality, and its growing feature set. Implementing our unique authentication model with descope was painless, and considerably easier than we had expected. Any questions or problems that we did have were quickly resolved, and for that I am very grateful of their focus on devex/ devrel.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to mind! They have a solid product and clearly focus on developer experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SSO, SCIM, multi tenant authentication. User flows!

Descope manages to fill the hole for customizability and painless setup

  • January 11, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Descope offers a ton of different features for authentication, but don't force you onto any one of them.
They have pretty complete documentation, and let you opt-in to different levels of integration, such that you can choose to either let them handle all of the heavy lifting of session management, login screens, etc, or just do it yourself for 100% control.
What do you dislike about the product?
The client Node SDK TypeScript typings are about 70% there, they match well for the most part but it tends to lag behind for some of the newer/less used features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
User login and authentication

Building authentication and authorization in hours than weeks

  • November 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of integration and implementation, team focus on customer success. Any questions/problems turn around is very quick.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly nothing to dislike about them. Want to provide an example, when we started implementation some of the sdk support like react native was missing but we got ETA for the same immediately and descope team went out of way to help us take api approach to support it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Descope has abstract our the whole IAM solution and we dont need to worry about multiple use case, scalability, newer scenarios. We will be needing an engineer to support this but this is all seamless for us.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really as of now overall worked fairly well for us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Turnkey SSO setup with great language support for node/react

The most seemless auth management platform I've used

  • November 09, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The drop in onboarding is mind-bogglingly easy. Within minutes I had auth working in our enterprise product in a multi-tenanted way.

I've used various auth providers both for production-grade apps and my side projects. Nothing comes close to Descope in terms of developer experience.

Following up, I had some additional questions about implementing some advanced flows, and their customer support was super responsive as well. Was able to resolve all the questions in the same business day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't found anything major issue yet. If I am nitpicking, I found that custom attributes are not typed by default in their node SDK. But it's also super easy fix on our end.

interface UserResponseWithCustomAttributes extends UserResponse {
customAttributes?: { [key: string]: string };
}
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Descope helps us authenticate our enterprise customers. We didn't have to build and manage an enterprise grade auth solution, descope just works perfectly with our tech stack.

Seamless multi tenancy authentication

  • November 08, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Descope is a platform that helps developers implement auth flows for apps quickly without needing to write a lot of code. It's designed to make app development faster and easier, giving developers more time to work on other parts of their app.
Great support team.
What do you dislike about the product?
The management console and documentation needs improvements
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Saving us a lot of development time

Great Product and Great Dev Rel experience!

  • August 22, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In my 14 years of product management and overall 20 years of building out products, this is the FASTEST, I have ever got Auth and RBAC implemented in any product. Period.

Great Team, Great Product, and overall Great Experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, there is nothing to dislike anything about Descope.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Descope makes it super easy to integrate authentication into our product. We have built passwordless auth in the past and struggled with Cognito, but Descope gets you going much faster, so you can focus on what you’re supposed to be building. The Go SDK is fantastic!

Excellent product with great support and community and few shortcomings

  • August 21, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Simple integration to webapp
- No need to manage users & passwords
- Integration with SSO & SCIM
- Great support on Slack community
- Flows tool is pretty cool
What do you dislike about the product?
- Tenant config customization: inability to create custom e-mail / invite per tenant
- Limited / hard customization for login page using flows
- Insufficient support for authenticating on tenants' subdomains
- Flows tool is limited on conditions, regexes, etc...
- No integration with GitHub (or other source control) to "document" / commit historical changes made
- No proper way to test changes before publishing them to production
- Built-in Audit page needs some love
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving the problem of having to create my own user management for authentication and authorization (roles & permissions), handle passwords or apply passwordless methods, integrating with SSO & SCIM are all powerful features Descope has in its offering
