Why Companies Switch

Why Switch from Cognito?

🌐

Multi-Cloud Freedom

Stop being locked into AWS. TitaniumVault works anywhere - AWS, GCP, Azure, or your own infrastructure. Your auth shouldn't dictate your cloud.

🎯

Developer Experience

No more wrestling with CloudFormation templates and Lambda triggers. TitaniumVault offers clean APIs and modern SDKs that just work.

🔐

Modern MFA

Support WebAuthn, FIDO2, and Passkeys out of the box. Cognito's MFA options are stuck in the SMS era.

📈

Scale Without Surprises

Cognito's per-MAU pricing gets expensive fast at scale. TitaniumVault's flat rate means predictable costs as you grow.
