Figuring out what kind of auth solution your growing business needs can feel like trying to draw an owl. If you start trying to build it yourself, you'll quickly face dozens of choices. How do you know which design decisions are right for your business? Our CEO Tyler Warnock says: "If you start with individual user accounts and later need to serve team accounts, you’re going to have a bad time. If you start with freemium customers and later want to serve enterprise customers, you’re going to have a bad time. If you start with session tokens and later need to scale horizontally, you guessed it… you’re going to have a bad time." Userfront can help you draw the auth owl.

This week we're thinking about what happens when rolling your own auth snowballs into a giant headache Everything starts out simple. Add a little home-grown password-based authentication into your app and it seems great - everything just works! But then your app grows, your user base grows, and your needs get more complicated: suddenly that simple DIY auth solution doesn't do everything you need. Where do you go from there? Do you keep building on top on your existing auth, or do you have to start from scratch with a third-party solution? Are the sunk costs too high to change course, or is the trade-off worth it? And what do you do with all those existing users Feel familiar? Join the discussion at: https://lnkd.in/g5r4XAb2
