    CoSign SSO integrates well with the WordPress platform, which our organization's employees use very frequently. My organization has a few blog posts created by the different communities out here due to which we use it heavily on a routinely basis. With CoSign SSO, integrating well with it has reduced a burden of remembering the password separately.

    It's probably really best suited if you have a business where you have disparate systems but need a way to synchronize the user account information including the passwords between them. If you just have a Windows Active Directory environment only, there probably is no real need for something like this, but if you do this will help manage them easily.

    Besides the random issue where it gets unresponsive and we have to restart the services or reboot the server, it's been really solid. I've only had to contact support 1 time in the 15 years I've used it which is saying more than most other software. The cost of maintenance is also very cheap compared to some of the other software we use.

    As a user of CoSign SSO, I think my organization picked it against others as its reasonable priced. Also CoSign SSO integrates well with multiple social and organizational-level web apps, which might not have been the case with Microsoft Azure, as it would have been designed to integrate with Microsoft's suite of products. Since CoSign SSO is an open-source app, it further suits the requirement.
