Berbix vs. Microsoft Entra ID

It is well suited everywhere, it's a product I would recommend to everyone that needs such a service. I can't think of any scenarios where's it's not working well. We use it on two different iOS apps and a website and it's working well on all platforms and scenarios. For our next product we will be using it as well.

If you have a mixed solution, such as different types of devices with different types of operating systems, it could be more complicated. But if you have already decided that your company will be a Microsoft company in terms of everything internally running with Microsoft software, like the operating system, Windows 11, then this is probably the best way to use it. So if you have mixed or hybrid solutions or scenarios, maybe it's not exactly what you mean.

• Many people at our company work remotely, including the sales and procurement teams. So people usually travel from one country to another country. Some people travel to Australia or some people travel to Canada based on the business requirements. So we usually audit the sign-in logs and verify whether the user is valid while they're using our company's email ID to perform their day-to-day operations.

• I say "cost" on a per-user basis for smaller organizations, which is why Microsoft has small-business programs. I'm trying to figure out if anything is uniquely gripping. I guess transitions to and from, but to be honest, that's where we live. The difficulty of adopting Microsoft Entra ID when you didn't start there as an organization is a little bit sizable, but that's the case with any identity provider. It's not anything endemic to Microsoft Entra ID. It works. It's efficient.

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.

Simply because of what I mentioned earlier, the feature set sort of keeps changing and they do a lot of, they integrated with a lot of the other tools and so for users who are not as well seasoned, it may be a little bit more complicated for them to begin working within the tool.

I could probably rate this a 10 but I'm always conservative on giving out perfect scored bt performance has not been a problem for us using Entra ID.

I have not needed to engage support for anything at this time. I have been able to find the answers either online or in a knowledgebase. I tried to skip the question but it would not let me, so I rated a 9 based on other interactions with Microsoft support I have had

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.

We have not used any Berbix competitors because we didn't need to. Berbix solves the problem for us and we're happy to keep using it.

Microsoft Entra ID is not as stand-alone product as competitors like Okta. It may lack some of the features that competing products have but on the other hand it integrates both technically and license wise with other Microsoft cloud services and is easy to deploy. It is also the easiest way to extend identity management to the cloud if you already have Microsoft Active Directory in use.

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.

Microsoft Professional Services' technical knowledge is appreciable as consultants design the solution as per customer requirements. Mapping of features per user specifications and assisting Customer IT engineers to implement so they can manage and administer the services.

• I think managing costs was probably the biggest one as a nonprofit. We're always worried about the financial impact that any product can have. And as licenses change or they are shut down, migrating to the proper product without going over budget is always something we are concerned about. But for the most part, it's been positive. Microsoft works for us as nonprofits to make sure that we get very fair pricing.
