Great full-cycle authentication/authorization platform from Amazon
What do you like best?
First of all it`s very easy to add authentication/authorization flow to your application without implementing this yourself and spend lot of time for it. It supports MFA, login with social accounts, internal users database, fully implemented OAuth flow.
What do you dislike?
Absolutely absent localization for error messages sent by platform (this small ticket has not been resolving for several years by AWS team - only promises - https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=265505)
Hosted UI does not have localization as well - https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=301920.
Small number of customization features for custom login page
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You can use AWS Cognito to speedup start of your business. In case of multilingual and custom application be ready to reimplement many of it`s components
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I need full cycle authentication/authorization for my web portal. The main benefit is the speed of development.
