Acquisitions get authentication replaced fast (well, fast-ish, we got a year to change over). It might be around somewhere, but, AAD is used nearly universally and I've never seen Okta.

GitHub used Okta, it’s been a while so possibly replaced, but one example.

Azure B2C is a direct competitor to Okta... If MS isnt dogfooding this, when what would they dogfood?

Azure B2C is awful though

Azure is awful in general. Microsoft can't even copy other clouds efficiently.

In my admittedly limited experience it is “alright”, and their sales people don’t pretend that it’s magic like the AWS sales people do.

Honestly I’m so unimpressed with AWS that I find it hard to say Azure is terrible, because the bar for terrible is set much lower.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from it.

I haven't had direct experience with Azure B2C, why is it awful?

Laborious, confusing, error-prone and extremely extensively but poorly documented.
