Customer identity and access management platform for SaaS applications
As of 29 August 2026, Frontegg is free to use. Frontegg is a customer identity and access management (CIAM) platform securing every entry point into SaaS apps. Softwr lists it under Cybersecurity. Frontegg is available on Web, API.
Overview
Frontegg is a low-code customer identity and access management platform designed for SaaS applications, offering hosted login, single sign-on, SCIM provisioning, multi-tenant organization management and custom domains. It also offers Agen.co, a layer enabling users to interact with SaaS products through generative AI agents securely. Frontegg targets B2B SaaS companies that need enterprise-ready identity features without building them in-house.
The honest half
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Frontegg.
Cross-shopped
Each pairing was judged by two reviewers asking whether a buyer would genuinely weigh the two against each other. The ones that failed were deleted rather than published.

Softwr does not host reviews and shows no star rating for Frontegg, because a rating we did not collect is not ours to publish. What is here is the pricing and platform detail from the vendor’s own pages, limitations we could state concretely, and alternatives a reviewer confirmed people weigh against it. Tell us if any of it is wrong.
