FusionAuth has provided exceptional support and all necessary features for our online application

  • October 16, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
FusionAuth provides a Terraform provider which allows DevOps to support it along side all of our IaC. Their APIs also allow easy integration with scripts where necessary for importing, exporting, and managing all Dev, QA, and Production environments. Our Developers are enthusiastic about the level of documentation and the ease of integration and implementation. We've had excellent support from FusionAuth when needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be helpful if FusionAuth supported vanity domains for each of our environments instead of only for each FusionAuth server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They are providing authentication of users and applications within our application eco-system.

Great IDP for Developer

  • October 16, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are lots of IDPs out there. This one is focused for developers. APIs are at the forefront of their product. Easy to embed in your product. Also, the pricing is tailored to developers versus the big guys.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not as well known as the larger players such as Entra or Okta. Their cloud model is not a multi-tenant model. Seems like they host individual systems on vms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a SaaS app. We are looking for a platform that can handle identity management for our application

Excellent product and great resources are available

  • September 19, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Logically it makes sense. They also provide SDKs for frameworks like Angular. Their blog posts, AI Bot are all useful resources for figuring out OAuth and integrating their products. And, they continually improve these resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Angular SDK appears to prevent using FusionAuth in a way that seems that is supported by other OAuth compliant servers; e.g. OAuth. Specifically, for additional security, it seems as if the Angular SDK doesn't allow you to have the Authentication server (self-hosted or FusionAuth Cloud) deployed to the cloud and yet use it for local development. It seems like this should be allowed because of other OAuth servers support it and there are other mechanisms to prevent the CORS issues other than the headers the Angular SDK uses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's allowing me full control using a very capable Authentication Server for free. I host it in Digital Ocean via a Docker container for about $15/mo which is great. And, while learning about OAuth, I was able to explore the various GET and POST requests with JWT to explore the OAuth specification.

Good documentation

  • June 11, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is a great auth ecosystem, though it requires becoming familiar with their installation and setup configuration / documentation to get started.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not as clear directions for using a stock docker image how to setup the environment variables fully.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AuthN & AuthZ

Developer Friendly Auth

  • March 06, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot of upsides to FusionAuth. The flexibility of the configuration, the ability to host inhouse which increases control,the phenomenal support, very detailed APIs with excellent documentation, full MFA built in without having to move to the enterprise version, unlimited tokens so you don't have to build in a token saving and reuse mechanism. Also, when setup correctly (lol), it works. I'm never left feeling I had to compromise or create some strange hack to get it to work.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside, and for us this was actually a bonus, is it took a little longer to get some of the basics going. The quick start guide wasn't as quick as our previous Auth software but with the great support we were able to overcome a couple of issues. We now feel fully in control of the situation and have a deeper understanding of what's goingon. We are excited to dig deeper into the functionality as everything works as you would expect when you do dig deeper. With our previous Auth software we were always wary of digging deeper as it was much harder to get beyond the basics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have resolved the third party cookie issue we had with the previous Auth software. MFA is now more robust and easily accessible to our clients. Unlimited tokens has allowed us to remove the storing mechanism for tokens and reduce their expiry time. This makes us look more professional to our clients.

A fantastic CIAM service which feels like it was built for developers

  • March 05, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Once you have done the initial configuration in your code base (setting the callback routes, handling the grant in your controller etc.) , everything else can be configured in the FusionAuth Dashboard. For example, adding new IdPs, themeing, hiding/showing fields etc. can all be done in a intuitive UI without needing to redploy your application.
- The FusionAuth Dashboard itself is (to me) much more straightforward and locigical compared with Auth0, which I have used in the past. They have some great features in there like "Lambdas" which trigger when certain actions happen, making it easy to hook into the signin flow dependant on which IdP you are using. It is very customizable, but also has some great default out-of-box settings.
- Pretty active developer support through a maintained GitHub Issues page, which feels like they are working alongside developers to build a product that their users want.
- All the support and advice during the kick-off meetings was very helpful. Sometimes those meetings can be sales-heavy, but we had a lot of engineers on the call offering great insights and advice.
What do you dislike about the product?
- Whilst the documentation is pretty good, getting started is a little overwheleming, mainly because of all the different ways that you can configure FusionAuth (self-install or cloud-based). A more streamlined "Getting Started" guide for SaaS based products using cloud-based instances would help to get up-to-speed quicker. I feel like the documentation is all there, but it is sometimes hard to find what you need due to the way it is organized.
- I love that you can really customize the theme of all the pages and emails. However the theme template engine that they use is a little bit cumbersome. Once you get the hang of it, it does the job fine, but there is a bit of trial-and-error required to get started with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Enables us to quickly add support to any IdP that we need
- Comes with the ability to support SCIM which helps us to provide an enterprise login solution for our larger customers
- Gives us access to more advanced login features such passwordless login, biometric login, more MFA options, password breach checks etc.

Flexible, Industrial Strength Auth for reasonable Rates

  • March 04, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It provided a good replacement for Auth0 / Okta for our system as we have been priced out of their "base market". It respects all of the same industry standards and complies with all necessary pieces but provides a bit more configuration capabilties and their docs are more focused on the development community as opposed to market "fluff".
What do you dislike about the product?
Very minor in terms of "dislike" but it requires a lot more configuration to "get going" as opposed to the higher priced options. A higher level executive / manager probably would be put off, but teams implementing loved the options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves all of the usual problems of unified IAM and SSO (consistency, policy definition and enforcement, standards) at a reasonable price. We were not looking for price as the primary priority for our authentication system, but with the "top dogs" in Auth0 / Okta, it definitely factored it. The FusionAuth system and documentation helped make the transition of our live system seamless and hidden from the users.

Quality Product, Great Customer Support

  • March 04, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
FusionAuth took the time to meet with me and my development team to talk through what it was we were looking for. Once it was clear, they presented what options were available and were on hand for follow-up meetings as well. It's not often that a small business like ours gets the kind of personalized treatment that we receive from FusionAuth. When it comes to technical integrations, knowing we can get support when we need it is fantastic. It also doesn't hurt that they were much cheaper than our previous solution and offered straightforward pricing.
What do you dislike about the product?
There was definitely a learning curve to get started. It took a real deep dive by my lead developer before we felt like we were able to make progress. That said, given the product, I imagine this is true for any such service.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to improve our SSO and MFA options, and also needed to add user provisioning in order to meet customer demand. FusionAuth is helping us do that, at a cost that won't put us out of business.

Well, but some functions are missing.

  • February 27, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
That it can be installed on-premise and its ease of implementation
What do you dislike about the product?
The licensing method and the lack of parameterization
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Licensing is somewhat uncomfortable for early-stage projects, on the other hand, compared to other popular solutions, although its configuration is quite complete, 2FA cannot be an additional addon.

Smooth transition to a great IDP

  • February 27, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Great support, easy to use, great feature set, very easy to integrate.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish I could see who is assigned to a group in that group.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
FusionAuth helps Lightspeed manage our user base. We can easily manage who has access to which companies and services within that user base. Provisioning new users is a snap as well.
