On: Okta to Acquire Auth0 for $6.5B

[grinich]

We are doing this at WorkOS. :)

It's like Stripe for enterprise features, including SSO/SAML, Directory/SCIM, and more.

We used WorkOS to build SSO into our app. It took about one engineer two weeks to build and test.

Compared to Auth0 where you can't really control user sessions or access yourself, WorkOS makes way more sense in terms of not building all the hard auth extensions for SSO and retaining user accounts. It's great so far.

We've been integrating WorkOS with our product. The directory syncing is awesome, and the docs are well sorted.

We wanted to roll out SSO for our web app and used WorkOS.. we looked at Okta, Auth0 and others, but found the out-of-the-box nature of WorkOS really compelling. Aligned with flexibility and support for a wide-range of services, it made our life pretty easy. Recommend

Going to have to check this out tomorrow. Currently we offer SSO via Auth0; it works, but it feels messy and there’s errors I can’t seem to track down.
