Why Authing instead of Auth0?

Entering the Chinese market requires more localized authentication and access management services.

Using Authing

Enjoy a more localized service

Fast global response time

Authing has been deployed in multiple nodes around the world, and static files are globally accelerated using AliCloud CDN; the average response time is only 500 milliseconds, whether domestic or foreign.

Complete application ecology

Authing is pre-integrated with many common identity sources from home and abroad, including WeChat, Alipay, Weibo, Google, Apple, Twitter, etc., and can be configured in 500 milliseconds.

Diverse cloud service choices

Authing supports multiple cloud deployments such as Huawei Cloud, Ali Cloud, Tencent Cloud, Amazon Cloud, Microsoft Cloud, etc. It is completely "cloud neutral" and enterprises have more diversified cloud ecological choices.

Active customer service

For enterprise customers, Authing provides dedicated customer success managers who can respond within 20 minutes on average, while for individual developers, there is a well-established developer forum to answer questions and solve problems.

Using Auth0

Facing the challenges of Chinese localization

Slow response time

Auth0 has a good reputation worldwide, but has not yet entered the Chinese market, so the average response time in China is long, taking about 2.7 seconds. However, the slow response time will affect the user experience.

Lacking third-party identity sources

Auth0 lacks support for localized "third-party identity sources" such as WeChat, Alipay, etc. However, in China, third-party login through these applications is essential.

Limited cloud deployment support

Auth0 only supports deployment in Amazon Cloud and Microsoft Cloud, but does not yet support Chinese local cloud service providers such as Ali Cloud, Tencent Cloud and Huawei Cloud, which are chosen by a large number of enterprises.

Limited after-sales service

Currently, Auth0 has not provided official support services in China, and the community responds slowly with a time difference.

Move to Authing without burden

Authing has run through several best practices for companies that use Auth0 overseas but want to use Authing for their Chinese localization needs as they expand into China. Contact sales

Evaluate migration costs

For example, we helped a global meta-universe social platform with 20,000 MAUs and 3 apps migrate their data to Authing. First, we will analyze the cost in terms of user & role information, permission information, app information, SDK, etc.

Migrate stock data

Then, to ensure the replacement of Auth0 has not affected the original business, Authing combines the corresponding user data, role data, application data and permission data structures through the APIs of both parties to minimize the migration cost.

Synchronize incremental data

In addition, for incremental data synchronization, Authing allows event-based or timer-based synchronization through an underlying interface supported by both parties, making the transition to use more trouble-free.

Complete migration painlessly

Migrating to Authing enables companies to better meet China's data security and compliance terms. And with the API/SDK provided by Authing, it is more secure and efficient to achieve fast go-live and connect user data.
