Best CIAM solution built by and for devs
What do you like best about the product?
From the get-go, FusionAuth provides both hosted and self-hosted options supported by a wealth of thorough documentation for just about any configuration. The API-first approach yields exceptional flexibility for just about any integration.
Most importantly, it just works. It provides easy and bug-free solutions to the most common federated login solutions. Features like SSO and MFA are easy to set up.
Finally, their FusionAuth support is second-to-none. Their community and clients are always top priorities.

What do you dislike about the product?
The things I dislike are heavily overshadowed by all the quality I get from this product.
Much of the form customization relies on Apache Freemarker template engine. Once you get the hang of it, it is not so bad, but there is a learning curve.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Federated login using Gmail, Facebook, and Apple. I do not have to build a solution myself and FusionAuth makes it nearly plug-and-play.

A great authentication solution for our SaaS development.
What do you like best about the product?
The product is well-developed and supported, the documentation is excellent, and it is easy to implement. The feature set is tremendous for our needs. Implementing the other products I have used is far simpler and way more cost-effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was developed in something like Go so I can run it in the Kubernetes environment on our Pi clusters. Maybe it does, but I haven't been game enough to try.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Authentication systems are too important to try and implement ourselves for our projects. We work mostly with proof of concepts, and FusionAuth allows us to quickly spin up authentication services at no cost - which is handy.
Well-designed, complete out-of-the-box experience
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility and control. Not overly opinionated and is highly flexible due to its architecture. Easy to set up a self-hosted environment for greater security and control while retaining out-of-the-box features with sensible defaults and very little configuration. On the other hand, there are configuration options galore, so you can really tailor the product to your specific use case.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a small subset of features that are only available in the Enterprise plan. While somewhat understandable that it is understood that only an Enterprise user might need to avail themselves of these features, the gap between plan options is too large. If the only options for a startup are to go from a plan of a few hundred dollars to over 3 thousand, there ought to be some other options in between.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needing a locally-hosted solution for security purposes, being able to configure it to host our own data as well, be able to extend functionality for custom features/use cases all the while providing the basic user management and authentication actions out-of-the-box like signup, management, OAuth, email communications, etc. without having to build everything from scratch.
Self service of centralized authentication, secure and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Built with security in mind, self hosted and flexible to serve numerous services that need authentication in a centralized way. Did I mentioned that the Dashboard Rocks?!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not very easy to install and configure, but I see new alternatives of installation that I haven't tried yet, maybe I just talking junk and should go ahead and try these new ways of having it running ;-)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
FusionAuth solves security problems allowing administrators to control the requirements of the passwords and centralizing a single-sign-on to all products and services.
An excellent balance of flexibility and ease of use
What do you like best about the product?
FusionAuth's feature set is hard to beat - it really is an all-in-one auth solution. We particularly appreciate the themable multi-tenant aspect to FusionAuth, the full OAuth 2 support, and the built-in registration, login, and forgot password flows. The admin console makes it easy to get started, but FusionAuth's API-first approach and excellent documentation have made it a breeze to automate tasks once we've got them working via the admin console. To top it all off we love that we can self-host FusionAuth and maintain full control over our user data. We've been doing this via Docker and have had very few problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
The upgrade process for theme/email templates can be kind of a pain and we're not huge fans of freemarker. The flexibility afforded by this theming system is totally worth the effort though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use FusionAuth to manage > 50k user accounts (> 10k daily active users) across multiple iOS, Android, and web applications. The OAuth 2 support gives us a unified registration and login experience across all these platforms. It would have taken us many months to build a custom solution with a fraction of the features that FusionAuth gives us.
Easy to bring up, easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
It was a snap to get a self-hosted instance of Fusion Auth going, and for the same amount of effort it took to integrate just one social provider, I got a lot more flexibility.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had to plan and deploy one more system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It lets me move all my authentication for both front-end and back-end to one place, without requiring me absorb the risk of moving everything off to a single social provider. The turmoil at twitter makes me very glad not to have chosen that option.
Don't reinvent the IAM wheel, focus on your domain logic
What do you like best about the product?
Integration with Kafka is fantastic for implementing integration events.
The handy built in email template editor makes it easy to customize your auth-related emails.

What do you dislike about the product?
The Kickstart tool is great for automating setup through API calls but it would be nice to have a little bit more of a declarative config file or environment variables for some of the commonly replicated setup.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OAuth integrations and auth token management are much better handled by a dedicated service like FusionAuth than by using any framework feature or library. We don't need to worry about identity management and can instead focus on the domain logic of our applications.
The free tier is generous and has been fit for our purposes
What do you like best about the product?
We support users across multiple apps and have found Fusionauth to be a good solution tot his problem. We also enjoy the typescript api client, support for SSO providers and the thorough documentation surrounding that.
What do you dislike about the product?
The ability to manage theming and templates for Fusionauth UIs, including the recover password screen, is not very approachable and looks really dated out of the box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to support a single user across multiple apps in our family of products which FA does effectively. We need to support SSO and FA handles that quite well. We benefit from having saved a lot of time not having to develop these features ourselves.
FusionAuth is the easy-to-use yet powerful auth system you're looking for!
What do you like best about the product?
Finding an easy-to-use yet powerful auth system is challenging. But FusionAuth provides this effortlessly and inexpensively. After discovering FusionAuth, creating our first demo took just a few hours. After that promising demo, we dove deep into the FusionAuth white papers and API docs to bring Circleboom Login to live.
From my previous experience with other identity providers, I can easily say it saved more than a couple of man/months and tens of thousands of dollars.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the features are well hidden, and it’s not easy to understand how to find them, particularly adding roles to an application. Every time we want to do this, we search around and think, “where’s that roles menu item? It was here last time”. Then we realize after a few minutes that we need to exit “app edit mode” and click on the user-shaped icon to get into the roles. You manage every important thing about an app on the “app edit” screen, except role management.
On the admin dashboard, I still have to search for action buttons (you usually put them in the upper right corner). It’s somewhat contrary to standard UX.
Even though I love the product, I think it needs a user experience overhaul.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need a standalone SSO system to help our users log in and use the different tools we create without a hitch. With FusionAuth, we were able to create a robust single sign-on solution.
Great center piece for your suite of services
What do you like best about the product?
FusionAuth takes the authentication implementation off your hands and is highly flexible when integrating across multiple applications. Migration from other systems is easy as well when using the API or Lambdas.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the search and sorting of users between tenants, applications and roles needs more attention. It is difficult to isolate users by tenant or application in the UI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
FusionAuth provides a central application for our team to handle authentication and user management. We do not need to reinvent the wheel when it comes to providing authentication for a new service.
