Frontegg review
Frontegg covers enterprise customer IAM needs with a free web and API plan.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Frontegg is a customer identity and access management platform for SaaS companies building customer-facing applications. It provides embedded and hosted authentication, SSO, passwordless and social login, MFA, multi-tenant organization management, authorization, entitlements, user administration and an Admin Portal. Its enterprise identity capabilities include SAML 2.0 and OpenID Connect, SCIM synchronization, provisioning and deprovisioning, making it suited to SaaS products that need configurable customer access controls without developing the entire identity layer themselves.
Pricing is structured around a free Pay as you go plan and a custom-priced Enterprise plan. The Pay as you go plan is $0 per month and includes 7,500 monthly active users, five enterprise connections for SSO and SCIM, unlimited organizations, a custom domain and a fully customized hosted login. Enterprise adds multiple environments, advanced fraud protection, a 99.99% uptime SLA and premium support. This makes the free tier unusually broad for teams evaluating embedded IAM, while larger deployments need a pricing discussion before selecting the Enterprise tier.
Frontegg’s strongest fit is a web or API-based SaaS product that needs customer-facing identity features across enterprise and self-service use cases. Authentication options include adaptive MFA with authenticator apps, SMS, WebAuthn security keys, built-in authenticators and email MFA, plus magic-link passwordless access and social login. Integrations with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID and Google Workspace support common identity-provider connections. Teams requiring broader platform coverage than web and API, or a solution outside embedded SaaS customer IAM, should consider an alternative category fit.
