Why FusionAuth
For over a decade, FusionAuth has been evolving auth in parallel to application development. In today’s world, every app has its own custom pipeline, so only a hybrid deployment model gives you real freedom.
Auth You Can Own
FusionAuth is the only enterprise-grade auth you can actually own. Download it, deploy it anywhere, or let us host it (on your dedicated resources). Fully API-first, built for developers.
We Believe …
In Testing, Auth Should Be as Local as Your Databases
A Dedicated Architecture Is More Scalable and Performant
You Should Outsource Authentication… But Not Your Identity
Auth Pricing Should Be 100% Transparent From the Get-Go
Auth Should Be …
As local as your databases—download it and integrate authentication seamlessly into your workflow, just like any other database.
- Dev-friendly integration with killer SDKs and docs.
- No mocks needed, can use natively in your CI/CD process.
- Single-tenant architecture without the risk of noisy, nosy neighbors.
- No hidden costs - refresh tokens, extra IdPs? All included.
We Believe In Dedicated Infrastructure
We believe the most secure, performant auth has a dedicated, single-tenant backend. Whether you deploy in the cloud or not, you can completely avoid the risks of multi-tenant SaaS.
Customization Without Limits
We believe you should outsource authentication, not your identity.
- The login screen should not have limits on customization.
- Native integrations are just better.
- Auth should be a native part of quick feature pushes via integrations with CI/CD, Terraform, etc.
- Metadata shouldn’t be limited to 250 chars for login in-app behavior.
Transparent Pricing
We believe... pricing should be 100% transparent from the get-go
