Hello, We are a non profit organization creating an app for our members. The goal of this app is to allow every member to have their own account with a simple login system that would be the same for all our organization's app. We are currently discussing about what auth solution should we use, and I discovered supertokens through github From now on, we wanted to use a custom auth system using mongodb, but do you think supertokens would be better?

hey @nano_ck . Thanks for the description. When you say "that would be the same for all our organization's app. ", what exactly do you mean?

We have multiple websites that our members use, and we want to have a universal login system for all those apps

i see. And are those websites on different sub domains? Or entirely different domains?

They are on different sub domains

right. So this can work well with supertokens -> you would create a session that is shared across sub domanins post login. This way, if the user visits any of the sub domains, they will be logged in

Is there a permission management system on supertokens? We used to have auth0 for the admins and I appreciated the way we could manage permissions

You can use our managed service offering since we don't support mongodb for self hosted yet

that sound perfect

we do have roles and permissions, yes.

what database is used for self hosted ?

postgresql or mysql

Perfect, thank you very much

depends on the features you want, but all the login methods are free for any number of users.

and does it have difficulties when there are more users?

no difficulties with more users. We have people using us to handle a user based of 1M+ users on self hosted

It seemed like they tried to hide numbers

oh yea.. thats true.

Thank you very much for your help, I am personally convinced
