Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Auth0 and others in Single Sign-On (SSO)."This product helps keep us secure."
"It's improved security; we don't have to worry about people storing password loosely and secure them."
"Reduction in number of sensitive passwords stored insecurely on local systems."
"Tech support has been good. We haven't needed it much, because it is not a complex application. There is not that much you have to do with it."
"The stability has been rock solid. A couple of years ago, they were breached. However, if you had two-factor authentication enabled, it didn't affect you. We did, so it has been good."
"One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes."
"The initial setup for this process is straightforward and extremely easy. It just works."
"The shared folders is an important feature. It's the primary feature we use. Also, the ability for LastPass to autofill and hide the passwords, so we don't have to keep changing passwords every time a person leaves, is valuable."
"The most valuable features of Azure ID are the single sign-on and OpenID Connect authentication."
"It has been stable, and we haven't had any issues since we started to use it."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"My two preferred features are conditional access and privileged identity management."
"Privileged Identity Management (PIM), managed identities, dynamic groups, and extension and security attributes are all great features."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that is easy to use."
"It helps us with maintaining enterprise identities."
"Its ability to provide secure connections to people at all locations is the most valuable. It is mostly used by enterprises."
"It is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"The management through the plugin is poor. It consumes tons of client resources especially as an administrator."
"Our biggest issue over the years was around the stability of the LDAP sync to AD."
"The ability to set up an account expiration limit/date would be very useful."
"Right now we have two products; there is the password manager and there is the authenticator app. Ideally, these should be fully integrated and support better handling of two-factor authentication or any other authenticator data."
"The biggest thing is there is no good way to have LastPass rotate passwords without human intervention. Right now, we have to go into each folder, then rotate and manually update each password. It can be done it by loading a bunch of passwords into a spreadsheet, but this makes the whole process insecure because then the passwords have been noted into a spreadsheet which have to be upload. We have to go into 40 to 50 applications and manually update passwords, because we don't view their solution of writing a bunch of passwords on a spreadsheet, then uploading them as a secure solution. This should be done internally within LastPass."
"Its user interface should be better, and there should probably be more information about scalability."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"I faced difficulties from Micorosft's end and during the transition from Microsoft Active Directory to Microsoft Entra ID. Sometimes, some of Microsoft's documentation could be a little outdated."
"If Microsoft can give us a way to see where this product is running, from a backend perspective, then it would be great."
"For the end users, it can be confusing if they have worked for another company that had the Authenticator app. It is tricky if they have already had the Authenticator app and then work somewhere else. If they have to download it again and use it again on their phone, it is something that gets complicated. I know how to get through it. They just need to uninstall and reinstall the application, but for them, sometimes, it is confusing."
"Documentation I think is always the worst part with what Azure's doing right now across the board."
"An area where there is room for improvement is the ease of use of the dashboards."
"The only issue with Azure AD is that it doesn't have control over the wifi network. You have to do something more to have a secure wifi network. To have it working, you need an active directory server on-premises to take care of the networks."
"I would rate it an eight out of ten. The price plays a factor in the rating."
"Reading documentation could be simplified. Technical support could also be faster."
