Auth0 migration

Leave per-MAU pricing without rebuilding your login

Your applications already speak OIDC and SAML, so they carry over to managed Keycloak with new endpoints rather than new code, and the invoice stops tracking your user count.

The call is with an engineer rather than a salesperson. Bring your current setup and we will tell you what moving would involve.

Why teams leave Auth0

Teams usually leave because of the pricing model, not the product.

The bill follows your growth

Auth0 prices by monthly active users, so every successful quarter raises the cost of signing people in.

Enterprise features sit in higher tiers

The first large customer who asks for SAML single sign-on can decide your plan for you.

Renewals are hard to budget

When the price depends on usage and tier negotiations, finance cannot plan the line a year out.

What carries over

Auth0 and Keycloak speak the same open standards, so most integration work is configuration.

Carries over
  • Applications using OIDC or SAML: they get a new issuer URL, client ID and secret
  • Social connections, reconfigured as identity providers
  • Enterprise connections to your customers' identity providers, over SAML or OIDC
  • User profiles and metadata, imported as user attributes
Gets rebuilt
  • Actions and Rules, which become Keycloak authentication flows and token mappers
  • Code that calls the Auth0 Management API directly, which moves to the Keycloak admin API
  • Universal Login customisation, which becomes a Keycloak login theme

How the migration runs

Today this is a guided migration: our engineers plan it with your team and support each stage of the move. It is staged rather than a single big-bang cutover.

1

Map what you have

Applications, connections, rules and custom logic, user counts, and which users sign in with a password versus Google, Microsoft or a company identity provider.

2

Stand up the new realm next to the old one

A Skycloak cluster configured to mirror your current setup, so you can test every flow before any real user touches it.

3

Move users and passwords

Two routes, depending on what Auth0 support will give you. Where Auth0 support provides an export of password hashes for your database users, those hashes are imported and users keep their passwords. Where it does not, a just-in-time migration checks each password against Auth0 on the user's first sign-in to Keycloak and stores it there. A forced password reset is the fallback when neither suits. Users who sign in through a social or company identity provider need no password step at all.

4

Move applications in waves

Each application is repointed to its new OIDC or SAML endpoint one wave at a time, with a rollback for every wave. We work out with you how MFA enrollment moves. In many migrations users enroll again on first sign-in, and we plan when that prompt appears.

What it costs

You pay for the infrastructure your identity runs on. Users are unlimited on every plan, so growth in sign-ups does not change the invoice.

PlanPriceClusters included
Developer$29 per month1
Launch$149 per month1
Business$599 per month2
EnterpriseCustom3 or more

Additional clusters cost more, so the bill grows with the number of environments and regions you run, not with the number of people who sign in. Annual billing takes 20% off. Full detail on pricing.

You can leave us too

Skycloak runs upstream open source Keycloak, not a fork. On Launch, Business and Enterprise you can export any realm, including every user and their password hashes, as an encrypted standard Keycloak realm file that imports into any Keycloak server. The integration work you do once does not have to be repeated if you ever move again.

What integration looks like

Once we got running with Skycloak and everything was basically set up, we just had to change a couple of URLs and it was pretty easy to integrate.

Common questions

Do our users have to reset their passwords?
Not necessarily. If Auth0 support provides a password hash export, hashes are imported and passwords keep working. Otherwise a just-in-time migration moves each password on first sign-in. A forced reset is the fallback, and users on social or company sign-in need no password step.
Do we have to change application code?
Applications using standard OIDC or SAML libraries mostly need new configuration values. Code written against Auth0-specific SDK features or the Management API needs porting.
