Best solution I've tested against many alternatives
What do you like best about the product?
I used Descop to replace Amazon Cognito and found its time to value to be super quick. I really liked the flexibility that enabled me to do just about anything I wanted with minimum coding efforts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Desope is a new and growing startup. Some enterprise features are still in flight. The team was very responsive both in support and accepting new features requests.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Offload creating an IDP or integrating with an IDP service from my engineering team, focusing on social authentication and authorization, while providing me with a single pane of glass to all of my customers and their login/logout activities.
As Seamless of an Auth Integration as you can get
What do you like best about the product?
Integrating Descope as an Auth Provider was as easy as you like. When blockers arose, the Descope team was swift with support and always willing to Zoom when chat support was not sufficient/efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Descope has room to grow and improve the robustness of their product and its documentation, however, as an early adopter this is a given and was totally expected. We are super excited to see how Descope's product evolves and learn how we can leverage Descope's capabilities fully for the benefit of our application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They are allowing developers to focus on application components and not building authenticate in-house. This is a massive time save and tech debt reliever for any sized team, especially smaller ones.
Removes the burden of managing passwords - for both devs and end users
What do you like best about the product?
Descope makes it very simple to set up a variety of authentication methods with hardly any configuration changes or custom code. We were able to add email magic links and a variety of social login options without a hitch.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. The Descope solution is very self-explanatory with clear documentation. The Descope team and community have also been super responsive to any questions we have had.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Descope has transformed the onboarding experience for our founders portal. Using methods such as LinkedIn to authenticate our community members has been easy-to-use for them and has helped us glean much more about their identities. Importantly, we don't have to worry about any of the password-related burdens that usually falls on developers like managing password infrastructure, reset requests, additional fraud measures, and so on.
Fast, seamless integration. Works amazingly well!
What do you like best about the product?
* Strong focus on passwordless authentication, which enabled better user experience
* Swift integration of various authentication schemes
* Flexible integration mechanisms that helped us to start small and iterate
* Ability to visually build authentication UI and workflows using their "Flows" feature
* Robust API documentation and integration support from their team
* SDKs available for various mainstream technologies

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. Everything worked well, and our current production workloads have been running very smoothly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Authentication has only been a utilitarian aspect of our apps so far. Descope provided a secure platform while also enabling us to iterate quickly and providing a much better user experience than we could build.

What do you dislike about the product?
If you're uncomfortable being an early adopter, you can choose a more established, harder-to-use, more expensive option.
This team is led by first-class product leaders building a future marketing-leading product and maintaining a respectable four-nines uptime.
The Descope team's response to customer needs discoveries is to dive in, explore, and understand the opportunity. This often becomes rapidly updated documentation, sample projects, or a feature.
They are also respectful clear, and decisive as to why they will not implement some suggestions.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a very small team, and the technology portion of the company is one and a half people, not counting the CEO.
Descope solved ease of use, stability, and security authentication with all the certs to prove it.
We needed OTP so that our members never have to remember a username or a password but still have secure access to their benefits and entitlements at our club and restaurant.

Simply the Best
What do you like best about the product?
Other IDP vendors don't seem to care about your experience, but Descope is night and day different. They've rethought the entire authentication experience, making it a breeze. Their responsiveness is second to none, nipping the few issues in the bud with gusto. The login flows make customising the login experience a joy. Highly recommended!
What do you dislike about the product?
With it being early days still for Descope, there have been a few teething problems. No regrets about making the switch, though!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Descope's approach to multi-tenancy and SSO has improved our product considerably -- managing role memberships in different tenants is easy. Swapping out our previous IDP integration with Descope has been a relative breeze. The price point makes it quite attractive, as well.
