What do you dislike about Descope?

Documentation is lacking a bit, but I think this is expected for any company tackling a problem as big as enterprise identity management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly nothing to dislike about them.

"Finally, an easy to integrate authentic service with all modern features"
5/5
What do you like best about Descope?

The whole process was very easy. Integration steps for both front-end and back-end were described very clearly and worked as described. It took us just a few hours to set up the account and integrate both front-end and back-end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descope?

Once you select initial authentication options, if you want to change the methods, there is no easy process. I was able to figure it out and complete it, but it could be made easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simply the Best"
5/5
What do you like best about Descope?

Other IDP vendors don't seem to care about your experience, but Descope is night and day different. They've rethought the entire authentication experience, making it a breeze. Their responsiveness is second to none, nipping the few issues in the bud with gusto. The login flows make customising the login experience a joy. Highly recommended! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descope?

With it being early days still for Descope, there have been a few teething problems. No regrets about making the switch, though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Zero to MVP in no time flat"
5/5
What do you like best about Descope?

Descope delivers start-ups the ability to rapidly prototype, develop and deliver production-ready Authentication for products in days.

Why it Matters

Our company built and delivered our membership app to production in 54 days, including automated authorization state handling from Stripe with a team of 1.5 people.

Why we Adopted

* Reasonable pricing & Start-up program

* Low to no code implementation and configuration

* High flexibility on account creation and auth methods

* Customizable look and feel in auth flows

* Excellent: Documentation, Examples, Support attentiveness, and troubleshooting Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descope?

If you're uncomfortable being an early adopter, you can choose a more established, harder-to-use, more expensive option.

This team is led by first-class product leaders building a future marketing-leading product and maintaining a respectable four-nines uptime.

The Descope team's response to customer needs discoveries is to dive in, explore, and understand the opportunity. This often becomes rapidly updated documentation, sample projects, or a feature.

They are also respectful clear, and decisive as to why they will not implement some suggestions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
