Halo and Auth0

Choose Halo when

  • The accounts are employees and contractors, not the end users of a product you sell.
  • You want the directory on your own hardware, under Apache-2.0, with reviews and SSH certificates included.
  • A monthly active user bill is the wrong shape for a workforce.

Choose Auth0 when

  • You are adding sign-in to an application your customers use, and you want Auth0 to host it.
  • Social login, organizations, and Actions are the product you need, not access reviews.
  • You do not want to run Postgres, backups, or upgrades yourself.
