The best cloud AD platform.

What differentiates Microsoft Entra ID from other similar products?

I enjoy how Azure Active Directory for Developers ensures Microsoft's identity protection security policy. It provides me with all of the best alternatives for data security and is always up to date. This tool’s layout is also appealing to me. It’s great that it's a Microsoft product. I enjoy how Azure Active Directory for Developers provides a tool for registering various apps as well as the ability to specify specific security permissions. Azure Active Directory also provides an identity platform for Microsoft Azure Cloud developers.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

SSO features are provided by Azure AD, allowing users to access numerous applications with a single set of credentials. This improves the user experience by eliminating the need to remember numerous passwords. Multi-factor authentication (MFA), conditional access controls, identity protection, and threat detection are among the security features available in Azure AD. These tools aid in the prevention of identity-based risks and unlawful access. If a company uses Microsoft 365, Azure AD links with it smoothly. This integration makes it easier to manage users and gain access to Office 365 applications and services.

What do you dislike most about this product?

While Azure AD is available for free, more complex capabilities like as self-service password reset and conditional access controls are only available in the premium editions, which are slightly more expensive.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Azure AD supports a diverse set of applications, including SaaS, bespoke, and on-premises applications. It offers pre-configured templates and custom integration possibilities to make managing access to diverse resources easier. Identity and access management can be centralized in the cloud, minimizing the complexity of operating on-premises Active Directory infrastructure. Azure AD provides extensive auditing and reporting capabilities. I can monitor compliance and security by tracking user actions, sign-ins, and resource access.

  • Continually Improving Product
