## Great auth. No compromises.

### B2B

**PropelAuth:** We’re laser-focused on supporting B2B companies in their authentication and user management needs. This means we have built support for the many edge cases that come up with B2B products like setting custom session durations per organization, requiring 2FA for certain organizations, and allowing each org to have a different role structure.

**Clerk:** While Clerk does have some B2B features, they have split their attention between B2B and B2C, which results in their B2B features being more surface-level. Important features like SCIM or 2FA enforcement are stuck on their roadmap. You may find yourself having to say no to customers or wasting dev time building features that should be considered tablestakes.

### Stack Agnostic

**PropelAuth:** PropelAuth provides first-class support for all popular web development stacks. Libraries are designed with the unique aspects of the framework in mind, so you don't have to compromise to get great auth.

**Clerk:** Clerk is focused on the React ecosystem - support for other frameworks is non-existent or surface level.

### Pricing

**PropelAuth:** Our pricing is straightforward and transparent: a base price with included MAUs. No extra charges for active organizations, collaborators, or SAML connections.

**Clerk:** While Clerk has straightforward base pricing, your bill quickly starts to stack up once you hit any kind of scale - milestones like acquiring a new customer or expanding your team all cause your bills to go up.
