Seems like a good place to ask: Does anyone have advice on good solutions for B2B SAAS apps? Just our app that needs logging in to and would like to allow the usual things (password, social etc) but also allow customising the rules per email domain. For example, if someone enters someone@example.com in to the login form they'll be shuffled off to this Azure connection for authentication. Or maybe they use our login p…

I’m also interested in this. We’ve been using Auth0 for a year and our contract is up for renewal where we will be getting kicked off of the startup plan. I’m wanting to rip the bandaid off early as we’re about to launch a new platform.

I’m highly considering bringing auth in house with Keycloak. I’ve run it in the past at previous companies so am familiar with it, but it’s going to be an extra thing to maintain due to self hosting, their themeing also is not great. However this is pretty much an end all solution that doesn’t really get expensive over time as our user base grows.

Wondering if folks have any advice?

Auth0 can do this. Identifier first login, SSO domain aliases, and MFA are all supported. They have an Organizations feature as well, but I'm not certain if you'd need that from what you've described. Customization of various aspects of the authn flow can be done via Actions (and Rules, but they're deprecated).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

> Many people are not capable of setting up authenticator apps, not everyone is a "techy" and not everyone is smart. That might be true but on the other hand most companies using Teams etc. will be introducing 2FA with the MS Authenticator App. Techie or not, you need to install an app and scan a QR code.

Once again, not every person using the internet is working for a company. If you don't know anyone that will just laugh at you when you tell them "it's super easy, you just need to install an app and scan a QR code", then you're living inside a bubble. Every year at my mums birthday party her friends already queue up in front of me, so I can install some apps for them.

Are they too stupid (I don't mean that in a condescending way) or just too lazy? I know several elder people (75 to 85 years old) that have no problem installing apps on iPhones. On the other hand I know others that "play dumb" but I think it's mostly an issue of fear.
