Frontegg

Overview

Frontegg is a customer identity platform built specifically for B2B SaaS. Where general CIAM tools treat organizations as an add-on, Frontegg makes the multi-tenant model, account hierarchies, and customer-facing admin experiences first-class, so SaaS teams can ship the identity their enterprise buyers expect without building it.

What it is good at

B2B depth. Tenants and sub-accounts, granular roles and permissions, and self-serve admin portals are core, and enterprise readiness starts early: its published pricing (checked 2026-11-05) puts 7,500 monthly active users, 5 enterprise SSO and SCIM connections, unlimited organizations and a custom domain in the free Pay as you go tier. Developer experience is strong, with embeddable components and good SDKs, and it added agent-authentication features as the agentic wave grew. For a SaaS company moving upmarket, it removes a lot of identity engineering.

Where it falls short

The B2B focus is also the limit: it is not aimed at high-volume B2C consumer identity, where per-user economics and social-first onboarding favor others. There is no self-hosted build. Its pricing page lists private deployments in its feature table but gives no detail, and documents no regional data residency, so confirm both with the vendor if either is a requirement. It also competes in a crowded developer-CIAM field against WorkOS, Clerk, and Auth0. Governance and audit are light.

Pricing

Usage-based with a free tier. The pricing page (checked 2026-11-05) has two plans: Pay as you go at $0 a month, with 7,500 monthly active users, 5 enterprise connections and unlimited organizations, and a custom-priced Enterprise plan that adds multiple environments, advanced fraud protection, a 99.99% uptime SLA and premium support. The usage estimator scales by monthly active users, enterprise connections (B2B) and machine-to-machine tokens, not by organization or tenant count, but the page publishes no per-unit or overage rates, so get a quote before you outgrow the free allowance.

Best for, and who should look elsewhere

Choose Frontegg when you sell B2B SaaS and want a rich multi-tenant identity and admin experience out of the box. For enterprise SSO/SCIM as a focused layer choose WorkOS; for React drop-in UX choose Clerk; for B2C scale choose Auth0 or Stytch. See Frontegg vs Auth0.

Bottom line

A strong, B2B-native CIAM that gives SaaS teams enterprise-grade multi-tenant identity without building it, less suited to consumer scale.
