For multi-tenant SSO with role mapping, the best choice is usually an identity provider (IdP) or CIAM platform that supports SAML/OIDC plus tenant-aware claims/groups.

Good options

  • Auth0 / Okta Customer Identity
    • Good for B2B SaaS, org/tenant support, SSO, RBAC, and custom claims
  • Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD)
    • Best if many customers already use Microsoft for SSO
    • Strong SAML/OIDC support and enterprise app integrations
  • AWS Cognito
    • Works, but role mapping and enterprise SSO are more limited/awkward than dedicated IdPs
  • Keycloak
    • Strong open-source option if you want full control and can operate it yourself
  • Ping Identity / OneLogin
    • Strong enterprise SSO and federation support
  • WorkOS
    • Very good if you want to add enterprise SSO quickly in a SaaS app
    • Especially useful for multi-tenant B2B and SCIM directory sync

What matters for role mapping

Look for support for:

  • Organizations / tenants
  • SAML and/or OIDC
  • Custom claims / attributes
  • Group sync / SCIM
  • Per-tenant role assignment
  • JIT provisioning and directory sync

Practical recommendation

If you’re building a B2B SaaS:

  • WorkOS if you want fastest enterprise SSO integration
  • Auth0/Okta if you want a broader full-featured identity platform
  • Keycloak if you want open-source/self-hosted

Common pattern

  1. Tenant logs in via their IdP
  2. IdP sends assertions/claims with user email, groups, or roles
  3. Your app maps those claims to internal roles like:
    • tenant_admin
    • billing_admin
    • member
    • viewer
  4. Store the mapping per tenant, not globally

If you want, I can also suggest the best option based on your stack (AWS/Azure/GCP, self-hosted vs SaaS, SAML vs OIDC, expected number of tenants).
