Compare identity products
Choose an identity product around the work you need to finish: signing customers in, enforcing access inside your product, running your own authentication infrastructure, or managing employee access.
Udibo has two options: Udibo Identity, a managed service, and
@udibo/oauth2, a package for building OAuth2/OIDC into an application you
operate. Choose the operating model first, then compare the providers that can
meet your launch requirements.
Evaluation path and Udibo billing assumptions reviewed October 2, 2026. Each comparison states when its vendor pricing and feature claims were checked.
Choose how you want to run identity
| You want to… | Evaluate | Start here |
|---|---|---|
| Have a service operate customer sign-in, recovery, MFA, organizations, and permissions | Udibo Identity | Managed service overview |
| Build OAuth2/OIDC into an application whose storage and operations you own | @udibo/oauth2, a public package with a pre-1.0 API | Local package quickstart |
The package supplies protocol and integration building blocks. It is not a self-hosted edition of the managed dashboard; decide who will own your storage, email delivery, account experience, upgrades, and incident response.
Check your launch requirements
For the managed service, settle these questions before comparing a monthly bill.
| Requirement | Udibo Identity today |
|---|---|
| Customer sign-in, organizations, custom roles, and resource permissions | Available; test your complete login and access-control journey |
| SAML federation or SCIM provisioning | Not available |
| Passkeys | Available on every plan, for sign-in and as a second factor |
| Enterprise identity providers | OpenID Connect connectors appear as tenant-wide sign-in options; they are not bound to a customer organization or selected by email domain |
| A custom domain for hosted sign-in | Not available |
| Tenant administration from your backend or a script | Use the dashboard; there is no self-serve management API credential today |
| An identity server deployed in your own infrastructure | Evaluate the package or a self-run provider; the managed service has no self-hosted edition |
Read the API guide for the boundary between dashboard administration and the tenant-host APIs your application can call. Confirm account access, operating terms, and any assurances your launch requires; udibo.com explains how to get an account.

Compare the complete cost
Udibo's figures come from its pricing page. Model retained users, hosted permission checks, and email delivered by Udibo separately. The email allowance is fixed for each plan, rather than growing with the number of retained users; messages delivered through your own sender are counted but not billed by Udibo.
A monthly active user, a retained user, an employee seat, and an average daily active user are different billing units. A table with the same user count on both sides is a scenario, not a guarantee that both providers would count your traffic the same way. Check the page's assumptions, then add the connections, email, compute, support, and other services your own workload requires.
For self-run software, include hosting, backups, upgrades, monitoring, and engineering time. A zero software license price does not describe the whole operating cost.
Rehearse the integration before switching
If an existing provider already meets your needs, a migration needs a concrete benefit. Replacing a login button does not automatically move password hashes, MFA enrollment, sessions, organizations, or authorization rules. Use the migration guide to estimate the actual work.
Use a small test application to prove:
A person signs in, returns to your app, refreshes their session, and signs out. Start with the first-login guide.
The same person has different roles in two customer organizations. Follow organizations.
Your backend allows one real resource operation and refuses another, then responds correctly when access changes. Use permissions.
Your team can recover an account, revoke a session, and complete the administrative work your product needs through the available surfaces. Explore sessions and the feature guides.
How to read these comparisons
Each page opens with a shortlist, explains where both products fit, lists sourced prices and scenario assumptions, and describes integration and migration work. A missing feature on a vendor's pricing page is not a claim that the vendor cannot provide it. Vendor prices and Udibo product details can have different review dates; check the dates at the top and the linked primary sources before deciding.
