Ask HN: Early B2B SaaS without features like SSO, OAuth login, etc.?

Hi. I have been using email login and admin users can invite their colleagues by email address.

Of course, many established companies offer SSO, ability to login using Google, Apple, other oauth.

I asked around to my test users and a few potential users and they mentioned email is fine. In my own experience as a SWE I used many softwares at work which used just email login. However, many more offered a bunch more.

Will it be fine to open it up to broader audience without all these things?

I wouldn't want to build and run my own auth system at the expensive of building features that my customers want.

For many decently sized (ie high AAR) business customers, particularly those in regulated industries, SSO is a non-negotiable requirement anyway.

Don't build, use Casdoor or Keycloak.

Or Zitadel ;-)

And yes I am clearly biased.
