AWS Cognito alternative
The AWS Cognito alternative for SaaS teams
Authagonal gives you enterprise SSO, SCIM, MFA, audit logs and branded login — every feature on every plan, with no per-connection fees.
Why teams move off AWS Cognito
- Powerful but famously rough DX; you assemble SCIM and the enterprise flows yourself, and SSO is native but config-heavy per IdP.
- No tenant-facing admin portal and no audit UI, so those you build and run yourself.
- Deeply tied to AWS, which complicates a clean, portable identity layer.
AWS Cognito vs Authagonal
| AWS Cognito | Authagonal | |
|---|---|---|
| Enterprise SSO | Native, but config-heavy per IdP | One-click, customer self-service |
| SCIM provisioning | Not provided | Included on every plan |
| Admin portal | None, build your own | Full management portal, included |
| Branded login | No-code designer, but template-locked | Your logo + domain, custom CSS |
| Audit logging | Stitch together CloudTrail | 365-day audit logs, included |
