Best forEngineering teams that want to self-host identity on their own infrastructure, including on-prem, hybrid and air-gapped deployments.; B2C, B2B and B2B2C products that need OAuth2, OIDC, SAML v2, passkeys and MFA delivered through APIs.; Security and platform teams that need fine-grained authorization for users, services and AI agents.; Companies that want predictable pricing with unlimited identity providers on every plan.; Regulated businesses that need GDPR compliance and a HIPAA BAA as they scale.Security teams standardizing credential protection for employees, developers, and service accounts in one vault; Enterprises that need coverage for apps and credentials outside their identity provider; Organizations that must discover shadow AI/SaaS usage and govern AI agent access at runtime; Developer-heavy engineering orgs needing secrets management and CLI/CI pipeline automation; Compliance-driven buyers that want audit-ready activity and session logs
Not forTeams looking for a no-code identity product they never have to operate or deploy.; Buyers who expect advanced MFA, threat detection and 24/7 support on a free tier.; Organizations that want a broad SaaS app marketplace rather than a focused CIAM server.; Companies without engineering capacity to run or integrate an identity service.Cost-sensitive teams that want a simple shared vault with published per-seat list pricing; Organizations whose identity provider already covers every application they run; Buyers who require instant self-serve signup and checkout without a sales conversation; Teams needing a vertically specialized platform (for example a vendor-stated HIPAA BAA or FedRAMP authorization) evidenced up front
