Keep the control.
Drop the maintenance.
Keycloak is a genuinely capable open-source identity provider — and running it well is a job. Upgrades, high availability, patching, theme maintenance, and everything an enterprise needs beyond SSO land on your team. Monosign keeps the self-hosted deployment control and delivers SSO, MFA, governance, and reporting as one supported product — deployed in minutes.
A product, not a project
With Keycloak, your team is the vendor: you plan upgrades, run the HA topology, apply patches, and maintain the customizations. Monosign ships as a supported product — tested releases, commercial support included, and someone on the hook when it matters.
Enterprise needs, in the box
SSO and MFA are where identity starts, not where it ends. Access reviews, joiner–mover–leaver lifecycle, audit reporting, and identity threat detection all sit outside Keycloak’s scope — in Monofor they are modules of the same platform, sharing one console.
Same freedom, less friction
Monosign runs self-hosted on your infrastructure or in the cloud — same product, same price. A 7,000+ app catalog replaces hand-built client configurations, and legacy bridges (RADIUS, LDAP gateway, header-based apps) cover what modern protocols miss.
Monofor vs Keycloak,
feature by feature.
At the protocol core the two are at parity — Keycloak earned its reputation. The difference is everything around the core: who operates it, who supports it, and how much of the enterprise identity stack is actually in the box.

Common questions.
- Is the self-hosted deployment fully supported?
- Yes. Self-hosted is a first-class deployment of the same product — same features, same price as cloud, with commercial support included. You are not trading support for control.
- Do we lose the control that open source gives us?
- You keep the control that actually matters operationally: where it runs, where the data lives, and when you upgrade. What changes is who carries the operational load — upgrades, HA, and patches become a vendor responsibility with support behind them, instead of internal engineering time.
- What does migration from Keycloak look like?
- Standard-protocol re-pointing. Applications federated over SAML or OIDC are moved app by app to Monosign, users are imported or synchronized from your directory, and both systems can run side by side until cutover completes. No proprietary lock-in on either side of the move.
- We like Keycloak — why would we switch?
- Many teams should not. Keycloak is excellent at what it targets. The switch makes sense when the operating cost of running it well keeps growing, or when needs like access reviews, lifecycle automation, reporting, or a support SLA appear — things that sit outside Keycloak and inside Monofor.
- Does Monosign cover what our Keycloak extensions do?
- Usually, natively. Common reasons for custom Keycloak extensions — MFA flows, user federation sources, provisioning hooks, branded themes — are built-in configuration in Monosign. Bring your specific extensions to the trial and map them one by one.
