Authentication is very crucial part in most applications. I have a big journey of using different authentication services. All started with AWS Cognito. Unfortunately, there were a lot of headaches with restrictions or functions that were missing. We then switched to Auth0. We then switched to Frontegg, as they are perfect for a SaaS.

I prefer to handle the authentication part myself. It just feels more safe and you don't have to rely on a third party for authentication.
I typically go for session based approach using redis, this way I can keep track of the user's sessions and revoke them on demand.

@swayammi7 under the hood we use as well OAuth 2.0. Did you implemented it in your application by your self or do you use a library or service?

I've had a similar journey, Niklas, starting with Firebase Authentication for its ease of integration, but recently I've been leaning towards Okta for its robustness and developer-friendly experience, especially for enterprise-level applications. It's fascinating how each service has its unique strengths!

Niklas, it sounds like you've had quite the journey finding the right fit for authentication services. We've been using Firebase Authentication for its ease of integration and flexibility, but your experience with Frontegg is definitely something I'll consider for our SaaS needs.
We use secure login systems like OAuth and password authentication
We use password based authentication and multi-factor authentication
SuperTokens is a great option. They developer experience is great, managed service pricing is reasonable and their Open Source, so you always have the option to self-host
