unclear if we will all have to switch off Auth0 with the acquisition but I've built a company with Auth0 as the auth provider and definitely would not take it back, saved us so much time and allowed us to focus more time on product market fit
In the end this is the whole goal of something like stripe, or even something like Courier. Let your engineers spend more time on PMF and building cool new features.
On the flip side the absolute mess of a headache my day job had during their recent what 3+ hour downtime, stopping our paying customers from accessing our perfectly working application that they pay for, because early days devs decided to use Auth0 instead of a battle tested rails auth lib has made us prioritize refactoring auth0 out of our system.
As far as I can tell, nothing has actually changed from the customer perspective. It's not like Auth0 is going away or becoming unusable. Okta didn't spend $6.5B to burn all of Auth0's customers.
