Logto vs. Microsoft Entra ID

It's the industry standard for identity management. It's been around for a long time in various formats. It's the successor to Active Directory, which has managed networks for decades. It's easy to create apps. It's easy to integrate Microsoft Entra ID and two-factor into things that I build. I really like that. I really only think the only thing that really needs to work is domain services, which is horrific. But otherwise, to me it's a stock standard. I wouldn't actually migrate away from it to go anywhere else or do anything else or use anything else because really there's no need for me to do that. But I'm not in a high security field. I'm not in IL5 or something like it. Working in some top secret, high government thing. Maybe there's some nuanced things that Microsoft can work on, but it certainly doesn't impact me just managing users, making sure I've got a good level of security working with data.

• It does well with user object management and product management, as far as when we do laptop deployments and things like that. But the user information is fantastic. Being able to pull and manage all of that information in the place that we do, I like Microsoft Entra ID for that.

• Room for improvement. Honestly, I think the organization of everything, because there's just so much within Microsoft Entra ID and sometimes it gets lost kind of down in the shuffle. That would be the one area that I think a lot of people struggle with, and I know I did in the beginning, is just finding what you need and how to get there. Once you're used to it, it's fine, but that initial toe in the water, it's tough to find.

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.

It's not complex. It works as configured, right? There's a lot of granular rules, and it'll get very specific if you need it to. But for many of our security capabilities, especially for mid-market enterprises, I think you can get all the capabilities you typically need with OnStar.

There has been a handful of outages but they have been either minimal or rarely severe

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

Most training was internally produced

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.

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 don't know. I think we could not do without it. Also, because we have limitations in other systems, like our HR system, which cannot store externals. So for us, Microsoft Entra ID is the master data where we keep everyone connecting to our network. So it's difficult to quantify. It's simply indispensable.
