Reviewer scorecard
“Universal Login, Actions, and the SDK cover every auth pattern. RBAC and Organizations for B2B are well-designed.”
“Zero-config VPN that actually works. SSH, self-hosted services, and dev server access from anywhere. MagicDNS is genius.”
“Auth is hard to get right. Auth0 handles the complexity so you don't have to. The free tier is generous.”
“WireGuard-based, zero config, and the free tier is generous. Makes self-hosting accessible by solving network access.”
“Clerk is the modern alternative with better DX. Auth0 feels increasingly enterprise-heavy and complex.”
“Tailscale is making private networking trivial. The mesh approach is the right architecture for distributed teams.”
