Elido vs Short.io
Native SCIM, granular RBAC, and a click cap that actually works.
Short.io is excellent at per-domain configuration. Elido moves config to the workspace level and adds enterprise primitives — SCIM, custom roles, IP allowlist — at lower tiers than Short.io's Enterprise.
Where Elido wins
- Native SCIM via WorkOS, on Business
- Custom roles with fine-grained ABAC
- IP allowlist (CIDR) on Business
- Per-link click cap (max_clicks)
- EU data residency by default
- OpenAPI 3.1 with 44 endpoints
Where it's a wash
- Per-domain pixel configuration (we do per-workspace)
- Bulk import via CSV
- Universal Links / App Links manifests
Where Short.io still wins
- Password-protected links (we don't have this yet)
- Cloaked / iframe-wrapped destinations
- Per-link expiration date as a first-class field
