Entra ID is particularly suited in highly regulated environments where conditional access can be applied via device filters, app filters, locations, and groups. It is less suited in organizations seeking to secure a perimeter based on Zero-trust principles as the first line of Attack and that have not yet invested in a comprehensive endpoint security solution.

• The conditional access piece works really well for us. We in the past have had situations where, and you've seen it also in the news like SIM swaps that are happening, the attacks that are happening. We don't have to just solely rely on an application, a cloud application, having MFA, et cetera. We now have it applied to a larger number of applications and it effectively has stopped attacks the coming across.

MSFT Entra ID has been essential for managing our geographically dispersed team. We're confident that it will scale with us as grow, and we'll be able to take advantage of additional security and ID management features as they become necessary. Being able to centrally manage our user access from anywhere with a small support team is such a relief.

I think it can be hard to manage, but only because it is so big. Any time you have a lot you can do the management of it gets harder. They do a good job making it good to use and document the product very well.

Make sure you use a good partner. Our implementation was a bit longer and more problematic than we expected. Our partner got it done, but, in my opinion, some of their inexperience and staffing issues were evident.

Access Auditor performs much better due to targeted features. On the other hand SAP based access control has more features but that are in favor of our needs. so to avoid complexity we prefer SCC Access Auditor. it is robust & provide the required security by avoiding violations, threats and breaches.

The Microsoft Entra ID reaches to height in comparison to other applications of Google cloud console and Amazon Web Services due to its amazing feature of provisioning and Microsoft Graph APIs. Plus ease of implementation of single sign on feature to different apps as an identity provider is a cherry on the cake

The features are getting addresses per requirements and their value for Money. The proposed ROI and actual ROI build confidence.

Scalability is pretty trival for Entra ID. It's not difficult to manage a few or many accounts.
