Toksta's take

WorkOS excels at simplifying the integration of enterprise-grade features like SSO, Directory Sync, and Audit Logs, making it a solid choice for startups aiming to onboard enterprise clients quickly. The unified API is a standout, saving developers from navigating the complexities of different identity providers. That being said, relying on WorkOS introduces risks, including potential downtime and vendor lock-in, which could become headaches for scaling businesses.

Customization also feels limited compared to building in-house solutions. For smaller teams prioritizing speed-to-market over full control, WorkOS is a practical solution. But for those wary of third-party dependencies, the trade-offs warrant caution.

Overall, it’s a useful tool—but not without its compromises.

Growth tip

Use WorkOS's Directory Sync feature to automatically provision and deprovision user accounts when employees join or leave your enterprise clients' organizations. This ensures that your application's user access is always up-to-date, reducing security risks associated with orphaned accounts and streamlining the onboarding process for new users, which can be a significant selling point when pitching to larger companies.
