Auth0 is built for customer identity
Customer login must support unpredictable volume, serve users who expect a seamless self-service experience, and reflect a brand that is evaluated from the very first interaction.
Your users are customers
Auth0 is built for customer identity, where volume, self-service, and brand experience come first. For employee access, start with Okta.
Login is spread across brands
Different teams built different login flows at different times. Auth0 Organizations lets you run separate branded logins from one platform.
Your developers want control
API-first, with SDKs for most frameworks. Actions and Forms let your team shape the login flow instead of working around it.
AI is moving into your product
An agent acting for a customer needs its own identity and limits. Auth0 for AI Agents gives it both, without handing over credentials.

Auth0 lets Reitan Retail connect customer identity across their brands
Together with Cloudworks, Reitan Retail built a shared customer identity foundation that creates smoother app experiences, protects loyalty value, and helps connect its loyalty program across brands like REMA 1000, Narvesen, 7-Eleven, and Uno-X Mobility.
With Auth0, we have built a common identity foundation that enables us to strengthen security across our services, protect customer data, and create more seamless experiences across our brands.

What the platform covers
Login and registration
Universal Login. One central login page for all your apps, styled to match the brand.
Social and enterprise login. Google, Apple, and Facebook, plus SAML and OIDC federation.
Passwordless. Email, SMS, and magic links for customers who would rather skip the password.
Single sign-on. One session across your apps and brands.
Security
Adaptive MFA. Asks for a second factor only when the login looks risky, so most customers never see it.
Step-up authentication. Extra checks only when someone reaches something sensitive.
Attack protection. Bot detection, breached password detection, and brute force protection run in the background.
Authorization
Fine Grained Authorization. Define who can see what down to the individual record or document.
Relationship-based access. Households, shared accounts, and delegated access without building your own permissions layer.
Roles and scope. Standard RBAC and API authorization for the simpler cases.
Identity for AI agents
Token Vault. Agents reach services like Google or Slack without ever handling credentials.
Fine Grained Authorization for RAG. A model only retrieves data the current user is allowed to see.
Async authorization. A sensitive action pauses until a human approves it.
Agents as Principal. The agent gets its own identity, so you can audit what it did.
Room to build on top
Actions. Custom logic at each step of the login, written by your own developers.
Forms. Registration and login flows built in a visual editor.
Marketplace. Integrations to consent management, identity proofing, fraud detection, and more.
Moving your users without downtime
Most CIAM projects start with users sitting in a legacy directory, an old database, or an application nobody wants to touch. Moving them into Auth0 without locking anyone out is usually the first real task in the project.
- Two ways in. Bulk import, or gradual migration where users move across as they log in.
- No downtime. Your applications keep running while it happens.
- The real work. Password hashing, duplicate accounts, and profile data that never matched across systems.
We go through your existing user data with you and plan the migration around what we find.

COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT AUTH0
Both solutions come from Okta and support customer identity. Auth0 is the developer-first option, built for custom application integrations with SDKs and flexible logic. Okta Customer Identity is managed in a way that is closer to the Okta workforce platform. The right choice depends on who will own the login experience. We are happy to help you evaluate both.
The timeline depends on how many applications need to be connected and the quality of your existing user data. A single application with clean data can often go live in a matter of weeks. More complex environments with multiple brands, legacy systems, and large user bases take longer.
No. Auth0 supports gradual migration, where users move over as they log in. For most organizations this is the lower-risk route.
