Driver 01
Enterprise SSO pricing
B2B features such as SAML SSO tied to higher Auth0 plan tiers.
Migration playbook: Auth0 (Okta) → Clerk or self-hosted auth
Auth0 to Clerk and modern identity migration
Move from per-MAU Auth0 pricing and redirect-based login to developer-first authentication with embedded components and built-in B2B organizations.
Migration drivers
Why teams make this move
Driver 02
Redirect-based login
Sending users away from your app to a hosted login page.
Driver 03
Token verification latency
Fetching remote JWKS keys on cold serverless functions.
Execution sequence
How the migration runs
Each phase ends with a check you can verify — data parity, error rates, latency — and the rollback path is agreed before any traffic moves.
- 01Phase
User and password hash export
Exporting users and metadata through the Management API, and password hashes through an Auth0 export request.
- 02Phase
Organizations and roles
Configuring multi-tenant organizations, role-based permissions and SAML SSO connections.
- 03Phase
UI components
Embedding accessible sign-in and account components directly in your Next.js application.
- 04Phase
Session and token cutover
Updating API middleware to verify the new session tokens, then retiring Auth0.
Risk prevention
Pitfalls that derail this migration
Risk 01
Social login account linking
Not linking existing email and password accounts with their Google or GitHub logins.
Risk 02
Lost Auth0 Actions
Overlooking Auth0 Actions or Rules that add custom claims to tokens.
Risk 03
SAML metadata updates
Forgetting to tell enterprise customers to update their identity provider metadata.
Before and after
What we measure
We take a baseline before any change and report the same numbers after cutover, from your own tools. They are the evidence of whether the migration worked — not figures promised in advance.
- Monthly cost
- Auth0 invoice vs the new provider at your MAU count
- Login success
- Sign-in success rate before and after cutover
- Forced resets
- Users who needed a password reset, tracked daily
Questions
Frequently asked migration questions
Usually not. Auth0 can export password hashes (bcrypt) on request, and most modern providers import bcrypt hashes directly. We confirm with a sample of users before the cutover.
Clerk has B2B organizations built in, with member invitations, role switching and per-organization SAML SSO.
