I've used Cognito for personal/pet web app projects before. It was good for my use case - quick and cheap user authentication.

The simpler the better. In my limited experience once we started fleshing out users to admins, managers, and users, in a multi-tenanted environment, we pretty quickly ran up against Cognito limitations which surprised me.
(Cognito groups seemed made for this, except they have a limit of 10k groups. We ended up storing a comma-separated list of ids in a custom cognito tag, which seemed awkward.)
