Identity provider pricing comparisons
Five curated head-to-head matchups across workforce, CIAM, and developer-led identity provider categories. Every comparison links to the live verified pricing source for both vendors.
Okta vs Auth0 pricing 2026
Same parent company (Okta acquired Auth0 in 2021), two different products. Okta Workforce handles employee SSO; Auth0 handles customer (CIAM) auth. Comparing on price is only meaningful inside that audience split.
Okta vs Microsoft Entra ID pricing 2026
The two heavyweights of workforce identity. Headline rates are close ($6/user/mo Okta Starter vs $7 Entra P1). The real question is whether you already pay for Entra via Microsoft 365 E3 or E5.
Auth0 vs WorkOS pricing 2026
Two CIAM platforms with opposite pricing models. Auth0 charges per MAU; WorkOS charges per enterprise connection. Which one is cheaper depends entirely on whether your B2B customer base looks like a few large logos or many small ones.
JumpCloud vs Okta pricing 2026
JumpCloud markets itself as the SMB-friendly alternative to Okta. The headline gap is real ($3 vs $6 entry) but the bundled features differ substantially.
Clerk vs Auth0 pricing 2026
Two developer-focused CIAM platforms with very different cost structures. Clerk's $25/mo Pro is dramatically cheaper than Auth0 B2B Essentials' $150/mo floor, but Clerk's SAML SSO sits behind a $100/mo add-on.
