Muso trusts Userfront

Userfront handles thousands of authentication events so that Muso can focus on its mission.

Auth is complicated, and Userfront gave us the light touch "just enough" solution we need.


Securing better live experiences

Userfront gives Muso the tools they need to build confidently:
  • Realtime security monitoring
  • User data encryption and backup
  • Brute force login prevention
  • NSA-grade token signing with forced SSL

We love that Userfront handles brute force lockout and helps us feel more comfortable with requests not hitting our servers until a user is authenticated.

Muso's tech stack

Muso architected their system to be cloud native, utilizing serverless containers to create multiple isolated, testable, and robust services.

Language

Muso uses TypeScript top-to-bottom to improve code quality and create robust, maintainable software.

Frontend

Muso uses Next.js to serve its frontend web assets with both static site generation and server-side rendering (SSR).

Backend

Muso developed a custom, event sourcing Node.js framework on the backend.

Userfront works with any tech stack

From legacy integrations to modern builds, Userfront provides endpoints and libraries based on open standards to integrate with every tech stack.

Bottom line:

Muso's combination of modern tooling and robust security helps them move faster and build better systems.

If you need a modern auth solution that is just the right amount of opinionated in order to make sure you follow good practises without needing to be a security engineer yourself, Userfront is the right tool for you.

Our team has already recommended Userfront to other devs, and we would do it again. Tyler and the team at Userfront have been very friendly, knowledgeable and responsive which is just the cherry on top.
