| Best for | Seed-to-Series-B B2B SaaS companies with natively multi-tenant products replacing homegrown auth, who want embedded admin portal, tenant-scoped roles and enterprise SSO at low or zero initial cost — especially teams that shortlisted Okta or Auth0 and found their multi-tenancy inadequate. | Product and engineering teams under ~25,000 MAU who want to ship customer login fast on the free tier, and B2B SaaS vendors needing multi-tenant Organizations, enterprise SSO and SCIM without building federation themselves. |
| Avoid if | You need a firm budget before talking to sales, run unusual tenancy models (multi-org users, cross-tenant roles), are a Terraform/IaC-first or on-prem/hybrid platform team, need workforce IAM rather than customer identity, require a contractual uptime SLA below the Enterprise tier, or demand a deep and recent independent review corpus. | You run a high-volume, low-ARPU consumer app where MAU pricing plus next-tier-up billing decouples cost from revenue, you need multi-year budget certainty, you only need basic login/logout, or you want to self-host. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
