Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Entra ID
Entra ID is our cloud identity provider. We use it as part of the Azure core products, but also as idp for all the cloud applications that we have currently in place. It makes it a lot easier to deploy security measures, due to the possibility to apply conditional access rules, and also it's easy to manage both from the gui and from the console.
- Conditional Access Rules
- Logs (limited time by default)
- Integration with 3rd party
- Logs (security should be a basic, not a paid feature)
- Price (you can do lot of things but must of them depend on the license, and the most interesting ones are always on the top one)
- Stop changing names (this was Azure AD before, no need to change names, it can be confusing some times)
- + Easy Cloud Identity Provider
- + Conditional Access Rules
- + Multi Factor Auth support
- - Price / Licensing security features
We have a mixed enviroment, working both with on premise appliances and also cloud services. We try to use the best part of the cloud deployment, such as conditional access, mfa, high availability, etc... to use it both on cloud solutions, 3rd party integrations and on premise applications. It can improve both cloud and on premise deployments.
As said before, we use it for Microsoft apps but also for 3rd party apps. It does not matter if the application is on premise or in cloud, it should be easy to integrate it with Entra ID as identity provider (we have do it with many applications) and take advantage of the feature that it offers
Yes, we have some SaaS applications wich are integrated with EntraID as identity provider, but I'll prefer no to give such details. However, the list of SaaS applications that are compatible with EntraID is huge, and you'll find material on how to connect them and how to make it work, so it should be an easy thing to do.
You will have to "teach" users to get used to the new login page, as they will be moved from their classic login screen to the Entra ID login page, so if you don't tell them, it will be weird for them.
Also, if you didn't have it before, multi factor auth is a plus, but it should be also showed to the users before taking it to a productive enviroment. Anyhow, you'll get calls from people that are unable to login, but added security features make it worth.
