# Use case connectors

Use case connectors are the fastest way to implement common user experiences, such as authentication, registration, password change, account recovery, and MFA. Compared with the more granular connector types, such as core connectors, Ping connectors, and service connectors, use case connectors eliminate the need for complex subflows by consolidating common use cases into a single node.

For other connector types, you can search the complete list of connectors in the [Ping Identity Marketplace](https://marketplace.pingone.com/home).

The following table lists and describes the use case connectors and provides links to the related documentation.
