Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet and others in Authentication Systems."Very stable and scalable IAM service with good SSO and authentication features."
"In terms of identity management, it helps to improve security posture. It generally helps in terms cloud security, simplicity, and single sign-on for multiple apps."
"Azure Active Directory features have helped improve our security posture. The remote working has been a massive help during the pandemic."
"It is a central point where we provide the cloud lock-in for our company. We focus the multi-factor authentication within Azure AD before jumping to other clouds or software as a service offerings. So, it is the central point when you need to access something for our company within the cloud. You go to Azure AD and can authenticate there, then you move from there to the target destination or the single sign-on."
"Its ability to provide secure connections to people at all locations is the most valuable. It is mostly used by enterprises."
"Let's say we decide that our users need to have MFA, multi-factor authentication. It is very easy to implement that with Azure Active Directory."
"Personally, I'm a great fan of Azure Active Directory due to the security and compliance features that are there in the classic or default Azure Active Directory."
"It offers good Microsoft integration capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the stock tokens. That works the best for us."
"Ingestion of logs and raising alert space on those logs are the most valuable features."
"The capability to manage your business policy related to security when required without vendor involvement."
"Risk Engine’s risk score, eFN, GeoIP, and device binding all coming together in the Policy Rules to decide when to escalate to MFA."
"Our customer are seeing value from the product, as they experience cost reductions. They can stop fraud from their customers, then their customers can have a better experience from their services."
"The custom role creation function could be improved as it's somewhat tricky to use."
"Azure AD needs to be more in sync. The synchronization can be time-consuming."
"The solution was difficult to scale because the group's configuration was complex. I would rate the scalability level of Azure Active Directory a five out of ten."
"Everything should be in one package. There are so many different packages. They need to provide guidance because there are so many features and we don't know how to implement them in our organization."
"We previously used Microsoft's technical support, which was excellent; they were very responsive. Now, we use a CSP, and their support is lacking, so I rate them five out of ten."
"Azure Active Directory could be made easier to use. We have large amounts of data and storage. We are looking for video files and media content for applications, we will think about options, such as cloud storage or a CDN."
"The integration between the Azure active directory and the traditional active directory could be improved upon."
"The only improvement would be for everything to be instant in terms of applying changes and propagating them to systems."
"I would like to see a more adaptive type of solution, something that we could use on our web pages..."
"RSA Adaptive Authentication lacks a mechanism to verify the identity of a new user in the Enrollment event workflow."
"The product is basically unusable. We need better ease of use; it's overly complicated."
"Reporting modules is one of the major areas that can be improved further."
"It has taken years to implement."
"Better filters when searching for events. The current features for current filters when searching fraud events are not very comprehensive. You can only filter by certain fields in the transaction."
