Auth0 vs Symantec VIP: Which is a better fit?

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.

Best way to get all notification on mobile for 2FA for external logins. Mobile app and ui is very very simple and registration is quite easy to understand and user friendly.

If you change your account but have forgotten to log in and delete the existing link to the token, the token basically becomes useless.

Symantec VIP Access allows me to sign into my work accounts and devices no matter where I am in the world. They are safe, secure, and reliable - everything I require and expect.

Very few and less customisable reports. Also very costly than compitition.

We have achieved lot of things and remote access to many application internally. Those application doesn't have SSP enabled we can enable 2fa for this and we can secure our data seamlessly.

Symantec Has Abandoned its Mid-Market Customers.

You can really tell how much effort they put into their user design for customer interface. I appreciate the little details like the loading animation when a security code changes.

It does require you to have access to your phone -- sometimes I worry that I will forget my device and that will cause an issue for access.
