Frontegg vs. Cross Identity

Frontegg is a comprehensive Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM) platform built for the unique needs of SaaS companies. It eliminates the complexity of authentication, authorization, and user access by giving engineering teams a fast and reliable way to deploy advanced identity features, while also enabling non-technical teams to manage identity without constant developer involvement. For developers, Frontegg provides a low-code integration experience that gets identity up and running in days rather than months. Its SDKs and APIs support popular frameworks and languages, including React, Node.js, and Python, making it easy to embed features like single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), passwordless login, and role-based access control (RBAC). Developers can also handle complex SaaS requirements such as multi-tenancy, hierarchical user structures, entitlements, and subscription management with ready-to-use capabilities, avoiding the need to build these features from scratch. Once integrated, Frontegg gives non-technical stakeholders control through a secure, intuitive admin portal. Product teams can manage feature entitlements and experiment with configurations. Infosec teams can enforce compliance policies, manage MFA requirements, and monitor security dashboards. Customer Success can fulfill requests like adding users or connecting an SSO provider instantly, without waiting on engineering. This distribution of ownership reduces bottlenecks and accelerates how fast companies can respond to their customers. Security is at the core of Frontegg. The platform stays aligned with the latest identity standards such as OAuth2, SAML, and OpenID Connect. It provides built-in audit logs, real-time monitoring, and policy enforcement to help organizations meet compliance requirements. By removing the burden of ongoing identity maintenance from developers, Frontegg ensures applications remain secure without slowing down innovation.

Cross Identity is a fully converged Identity and Access Management platform engineered to solve the systemic security flaws of traditional IAM point solutions. Instead of stitching together multiple tools that increase complexity and attack surface, Cross Identity delivers Access Management, PAM, IGA, CIEM, ISPM, and ITDR in one unified architecture. This same-genetics design eliminates fragile connectors, reduces failure points, and prevents the exponential cyber risk growth seen in fragmented environments. Its OneBrain™ and Warchief™ engines provide industry-leading user, application, and entitlement risk intelligence in real time. Cross Identity enables organizations to reduce breach risk by up to 99% from day one while maintaining high reliability and uptime. The platform is easier to implement, simpler to operate, and significantly lowers ongoing system integrator and maintenance costs. Built for modern and future threats, Cross Identity delivers true IAM convergence without compromise.
