Reviews

    SuperTokens is reliable and safe

    The best part about this library is the level of security it provides with session management. Implementing the library was also easy through the document they provide and with the extensive support on discord channel. They also provided a lot of features compared to the previous library which I was using.

    ๐Ÿ Competitors: Auth0, Firebase, Amazon Cognito
    ๐Ÿ‘ Pros:    Jwt blacklisting|Rotating jwt signing key|Malware protection|Man in the middle attack protection
    ๐Ÿ‘Ž Cons:    Automatic email alerts for high resource usage

    SuperTokens! Best app for Session Security

    I used it with MongoDB and Nodejs. It was very robust and took care of all my security issues. It's super easy to implement like it took me somewhere around 2 to 3 days to implement also while installing it doesn't force or restrict you from doing something a certain way. The documentation provided by SuperTokens is phenomenal too.

    ๐Ÿ Competitors: ExpressJS
    ๐Ÿ‘ Pros:    Session security|Session management|Data protection and security|Simple pricing|Super simple|Easy to use|Information is easily accessible
    ๐Ÿ‘Ž Cons:    Not enough intergration yet
