The short version

  • Only Ory Kratos has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Euna Solutions the suite is assembled from six or more separate acquisitions and integration between modules is still being completed, so a buyer purchasing two modules should ask precisely what data passes between them today rather than on the roadmap.; Ory Kratos headless means you build every screen, which is significant work compared with a hosted login page
  • They diverge on capability: Euna Solutions covers Euna Budget, Ory Kratos covers Headless API.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Euna Solutions

  • The suite is assembled from six or more separate acquisitions and integration between modules is still being completed, so a buyer purchasing two modules should ask precisely what data passes between them today rather than on the roadmap.
  • No pricing is published at any level and terms are typically multi-year, so budgeting the true cost requires obtaining peer jurisdiction contracts, which is possible but slow.
  • Individual modules face specialists with deeper functionality, so a jurisdiction buying only procurement or only budgeting may get less capability than from a single-product vendor at similar cost.
  • Ownership has changed twice in six years, from a SPAC to private equity, and further change is plausible, which creates roadmap uncertainty over the length of a typical multi-year public sector contract.
  • Grant management depth is oriented to United States federal and state programmes, which makes the product close to useless to public bodies outside that funding system.

Ory Kratos

  • Headless means you build every screen, which is significant work compared with a hosted login page
  • More moving parts than a monolithic IAM: Kratos handles identity, and OAuth2 needs Ory Hydra alongside
  • Documentation assumes real familiarity with identity concepts and is not a gentle introduction
  • Self-hosting identity carries the security and availability burden that hosted providers absorb

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Euna Solutions: Is this the same company as GTY Technology?

Yes. GTY Technology rebranded to Euna Solutions in 2023. The individual products came from acquisitions including Bonfire, Questica, eCivis and CityBase.

Ory Kratos: Is Ory Kratos free?

Yes, open source and free to self-host. Ory Network is a paid managed service.

Euna Solutions: Which product was Bonfire?

Ory Kratos: What does headless mean here?

Kratos provides identity flows as APIs and no user interface. You build the login, registration and recovery screens yourself.

Euna Solutions: What does it cost?

Not published. Modules are quoted individually by jurisdiction size and users, usually on multi-year terms and often available through cooperative purchasing contracts.

Ory Kratos: Does Kratos do OAuth2?

No. Kratos handles user identity; OAuth2 and OpenID Connect provider functionality is Ory Hydra, a separate component.

Euna Solutions: Do the modules actually share data?

Partially, and it varies by pair. Get the specific integration between the modules you are buying demonstrated on real data before signing.
