Stop googling for a solution and just use this. This is likely exactly what you need. Clerk helps you avoid the hassle of having to deal with authentication both on the BE and the FE. It is not worth opting for another free/open-source solution as the free tier on Clerk is quite generous and will help you get started.

Clerk is a great auth service for building web apps. It makes it easy to add auth and user management, my experience with React/NextJS. Looking forward to seeing what the team adds next

Worked on some client projects and demo with this. Really love how easy it is to use and the generous free tier.

Extremely easy to integrate into your service. Excellent documentation.

We use Clerk for auth. Beautiful out-of-the-box, quickly set up, and scalable — a no-brainer.

When we started building the auth feature at @Bucket — the first interaction you have with a product — we wanted to make it a great first-time experience. Above all, we wanted a seamless, secure, and beautifully crafted login experience. We also needed a solution that is easy to maintain and scales with our needs.

We considered @WorkOS as an option, a mature and feature-rich auth provider. However, we didn't feel 100% confident about their pricing structure and their per-connection SAML costs in particular.

We initially began building user management in-house but quickly realized that creating a secure and seamless user experience involved more complexity than anticipated. It was clear that continuing down this path would pull valuable engineering resources away from our core product. Clerk provided a comprehensive solution, covering everything from account life cycle to payment integration. This shift allowed us to focus on our primary goals while still ensuring a great user experience.

Clerk makes authentication effortless, with a developer-friendly API and prebuilt UI components that save time. Unlike Auth0 or Firebase Auth, Clerk provides first-class support for modern frameworks like Next.js and integrates seamlessly with Supabase and Vercel. The built-in user management, multi-factor auth, and social logins simplify everything, while its flexible session management ensures security without complexity. For PullSense, it made user authentication seamless without the usual headaches.
