> Regret: Not adopting an identity platform early on. I stuck with Google Workspace at the start...

I've worked with hundreds of customers to integrate IdP's with our application and Google Workspace was by far the worst of the big players (Entra ID, Okta, Ping). Its extremely inflexible for even the most basic SAML configuration. Stay far, far away.

And it's a horrible moat. I've gotten locked out of a Google Workspace permanently because the person who set it up left, used a personal email/phone to do it, and despite us owning/controlling the domain, Google wouldn't unlock admin access to the Workspace for us, they would only delete it. Unacceptable business risk.
