For years, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and fast-growing scale-ups have faced a frustrating reality: robust, secure user management platforms are designed with enterprises in mind — and priced accordingly. But what if you could get the same powerful functionality, built for businesses like yours?
That’s where Prefactor comes in.
🚀 Built for Growth (Without the Bloat)
Most user management solutions assume you’re already a massive enterprise. They offer sprawling feature sets and complex integrations that small teams neither need nor have the time to set up. Prefactor streamlines this — giving you developer-first user management that’s lightweight, fast to deploy, and scales with you as your business grows.
With Entra SSO, password, magic link, OTP and Google social login supported from day one, Prefactor ensures you’re not losing users to clunky sign-in experiences. And when you hit scale-up mode? No need to re-platform — Prefactor grows alongside you.
🛠️ Control Without Complexity
For SMBs, developer time is gold. Traditional user management platforms often require learning bespoke policy languages or setting up complex infrastructure. Prefactor flips the script — offering an intuitive SDK that lets developers build secure, flexible user journeys directly within your app, fast.
Need to adjust permissions for a new product rollout or tweak login flows? With Prefactor, you’re not stuck rewriting code. You can modify auth behavior without re-deploying, giving you speed and agility — essential for scale-ups testing new revenue streams and business models.
🔒 Enterprise-Level Security — Right-Sized for SMBs
Just because you’re not an enterprise (yet) doesn’t mean you should compromise on security. Prefactor’s architecture ensures your users’ data is locked down tight — from secure credential handling to built-in risk detection for suspicious logins.
Whether you’re a SaaS startup, a marketplace, or an evolving B2B platform, protecting user data isn’t optional — and with Prefactor, it’s no longer a resource-draining burden.
💡 Ready to Scale Up Without Slowing Down?
Prefactor was designed to empower SMBs and scale-ups to build, grow, and secure their user journeys — without the heavyweight cost or complexity of traditional enterprise solutions.
If you’re tired of one-size-fits-all auth platforms that don’t fit your reality, it’s time to reimagine user management. Your growth shouldn’t wait for enterprise-sized budgets.
