Auth0 makes identity work for everyone, whether you’re enabling enterprise identity integration, SSO, and MFA for business partners (B2B), or protecting customer identities through CIAM (B2C).
Duo provides identity-first security and access management that scales to any sized organization across every industry, from small and medium businesses to large enterprises and government agencies.
It has been a positive experience. It performs very well, is flexible and has proven to be a good solution for our products.
I've struggled integrating auth0 in the back end with Node.js applications without getting a definitive error message that shows what is failing. Integrating Auth0 on the front end is simpler.
We've been using Auth0 to manage access to hosted applications that are accessed by both employees and customer employees. Setup is easy, and functionality and reliability is very good.
Documentation was a bit confusing to beginners.
Good documentation and very supportive customer support. Fairly easy to integrate into existing projects.
Some limitations: maximum user search result (1000) not clear until we encountered it and the lack of user containers (groups).
It's a platform with a great feature set, one of the best developer experience and correct pricing.
Also, the system management tools can sometimes be a bit of a mess with too many tools because sometimes it is not easy to locate particular settings within the tool.
Overall I'm very pleased. I never planned to be working from home for so long (like many others out there!) But this has just really made things easy and secure for me and others on my team.
I dislike how sometimes when I try logging in with Duo, the software lags or makes me re-log in after a certain period of time.
I like how simple and straightforward this tool is, and I am grateful that it helps me secure access to my private accounts.
It can get tedious when you have to constantly wait for a push request on your phone. Sometimes there can be a delay or no request even after you submitted.
What pushed me into using Duo Security is their trustworthy. It focuses on business protection and solutions leading to an overall best performance.
It is sometimes tricky and frustrating to integrate it again once you have changed your phone number; may be due to security reasons.
What I like most about this software is that it allows me to be completely secure.
If I close all of my internet windows, I have to re-certify everything again so that can be annoying. Also, I purchased a new cell phone after several months of using Duo.
Speaker 1: Hi. This is Karambir. I'm CEO of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and we focus mostly on studying the mental health effects of sound. I give Duo Security a 4 out of a 5. We weren't actually using a two-factor security for our website prior to Duo, but I had used Duo elsewhere, so I didn't really have an opportunity to test out any other software. This one was working where I used it before. It had just made sense. Duo Security made sense, so it was a known quantity, very easy to install. They had a plugin for our website that we installed. I find that it's very easy for me to just have this extra layer of security that requires me to retrieve a code through text message on my phone, and then add it into the web browser. That just provides an extra layer of security. It was very easy-peasy, very easy to install, not a lot of difficult instructions or anything like that. It was really easy to onboard with Duo. I had already been using them at my daytime job, so I already had the app. Part of that is getting the app installed, and then, you just need to activate the app. It's been a while that I've been using them. I don't remember all of the steps, but if it had been a really difficult process, I probably would've gone with a different provider. As with anything, in particular, we're working with this on our website, as far as our access to the admin site, so you want to make sure that it is supported by your ISP and hosting provider. We're using WordPress, so it integrates with WordPress. You want to make sure it integrates with whatever cPanel or any other products you're using to administer your website.
