	Azure Multi-Factor Authentication (Discontinued)	HID ActivID
Likelihood to Recommend	Discontinued Products If your solution falls within their standard use case or you have Office 365 - then it makes total sense. If you need a lot of customization or have a really specific business process that causes you to deviate from the standard flow it usually makes more sense to create a custom solution Incentivized Verified User Read full review	HID Global No answers on this topic
Pros	Discontinued Products Ease of use Interoperability Industry standard Incentivized Verified User Read full review	HID Global No answers on this topic

Alternatives Considered	Discontinued Products Honestly, they are very similar as is much of their offerings. It really comes down to which ecosystem are you already invested in? It doesn't make a lot of sense to try and interop with every cloud vendor - pick one and use them. While there used to be substantial differences in the cloud platforms, they are at basic parity now Incentivized Verified User Read full review	HID Global No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Discontinued Products Overall, it's a really good value compared to building a custom solution that you have to maintain Incentivized Verified User Read full review	HID Global No answers on this topic
