We performed a comparison between Microsoft Entra ID and UserLock based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Authentication Systems solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's very good at not disrupting the user experience."
"The interface is well laid out and it is easy to navigate."
"The most valuable feature is Conditional Access, and we use it extensively."
"It offers features that improve our security posture such as multifactor authentication, which is the second layer of protection that is used when we log into the cloud."
"It is a very straightforward implementation."
"Active Directory itself is the best feature it has. It also gives us a single pane of glass for managing user access."
"Having access to Azure Active Directory on the cloud gives us speed and use of the latest technology. The application services are very good, such as GitHub."
"Very stable and scalable IAM service with good SSO and authentication features."
"We mainly implemented UserLock for multi-factor authentication, but the user login insights are also nice."
"The most valuable features are two-factor authentication and real-time logon monitoring."
"The pricing is okay, however, it could always be better in the future."
"The downside of using a single password to access the entire system is that if those credentials are compromised, the hacker will have full access."
"When you start to deal with legacy applications, provisioning is not as intuitive."
"I think the solution can improve by making the consumption of that data easier for our customers."
"The visibility in the GUI is not good for management. There are a lot of improvements that could make it better. It should be more user-friendly overall. It is not user-friendly because everything keeps changing on the platform. I can understand it because I know the platform, am familiar with it, and use it every day. However, for a lot of clients, they don't use it every day or are not familiar with it, so it should be more user friendly."
"I haven't had any issues with the product."
"A nice feature that is not currently present, would be if they had some visualization tools."
"I would like to be able to authenticate Wi-Fi users using the Azure ID"
"The product and service are already great as it is but if I could add one feature, I guess it would be nice to have another factor of authentication (two additional factors) like your phone and a token for example, for when people forget their phone at home."
"I would like to see UserLock add the ability to automatically create a group policy in Active Directory. That might streamline the setup process."
