Ask HN: Recommend an IDaaS/Login provider?
I've been using Mozilla Persona to manage logins for letscodejavascript.com since 2012. But Persona is reaching end-of-life in November.
I could replace it with my own code, but managing email queues, worrying about password security, and maintaining it all is work I'd rather not do. It's not core to my business.
I'm looking for a simple login provider that will be around for the long term. I'm just looking for the basics:
* Login. Ask for the user's email and password, confirm that they're correct, and give me the user's email address.
* Signup and email verification: Get a new user's password and send a confirmation mail to their email address.
* Lost password: Send a password reset email to the user's email address.
Any recommendations or experiences to share?

- jdlshore 10y agoThis hasn't garnered many responses, but I thought I'd share my research so far. I've narrowed it down to Stormpath and Auth0. I also considered: * AuthRocket - no uptime page, were still in beta as of July 2014 (two years ago) - not mature enough yet * UserApp - got their seed funding in 2014, too immature * Okta - enterprise-focused, no public pricing for their "for Developers" product * IdentityNow - enterprised-focused, no public pricing * OneLogin - IT-focused * Callsign - apparently mobile-only, trying to be passwordless, no public pricing, overall trying to solve a different problem than what I want * Dailycred - feels abandoned, launched 4 years ago but still lacks team (according to Crunchbase), concerned about longevity * Amazon Cognito - AWS-focused
