In defense of SAML for enterprise customers.

I built an enterprise site that needed SSO to work for a number of different enterprises.

I tried 3rd party solutions, ping fedeate, Auth0, Azure etc. and these were nightmares to configure and get working.

Turns out it was way easier just to read the SAML RFC and handle the tokens myself.

SAML 2.0 is finally old enough that most enterprises support it.

So for me Enterprise SSO is a solved problem. For others having a hard time finding 3rd party plugins / services etc. I highly recommend whipping out the RFC and DIYing a solution. Only took me a couple of days. Far less than what I spent on other solutions.
