After recently trying Authelia I gave up and moved to Authentik. Very much appreciate the all in one functionality of it. The company even paid a YouTuber to make a bunch of useful step by step tutorials and they have been invaluable. They also have a number of SSO integration instructions for various software. I highly recommend giving it a try if you’re in the market for an easy enough self hosted SSO and proxy password system.
I’m currently comparing Authentik and Authelia. For me, Authentik was extremely easy to get into. Authelia with its text-based configuration is clearly not as easy for beginners.
On the other hand I value Authelia single configuration file which I can version control in git. Authentik is a click-ops burden.
Authentik has blueprints, which while not as simple as Authelia’s config, do provide a functional way to have version-controlled configuration.
Or the fact it consumes like 30mb of ram compared to authentiks near 1GB.
I’ve been running SWAG and many other text config services for many years now so that is not the issue. I just couldn’t find the information I needed to get everything working the way I wanted. I will agree with the reply below that the Authentik interface isn’t a plus for me. But the documentation is very good. To the point where I was always able to find how to do what I wanted.
Started with authelia. True, the learning curve might be steeper but for such a critical security wise component, well worth to invest into.
Simply love authelia so far. Documentation is great and detailed, but you need to study and understand.
Honestly, well worth it. I wouldn’t go quick on something like that just to install it faster then risk some breach.
Have you compared authentik to authelia by any chance? I use authentik but don’t think I’ve ever tried authelia. I did use keycloak for a bit too.
No, I started with authelia it seemed to better fit my ethical choices.
Compared to authentik or keycloak? Please elaborate.
Authelia doesn’t seems to follow the “free tier / paid tier” approach of other solutions, and doesn’t seems to have a commercial company backing it. While i have nothing against monetizing your work, i tend to prefer solutions that don’t rely on a commercial partner behind that could start an enshittification strategy sometime in the future or worse.
Authelia gave me a better feeling.
Of course, i might be completely wrong. And, as i wrote, i never tried other solutions before Authelia, which fitted my bill immediately.
