Azure Active Directory

An active directory is like the number one must-have software that any organization should have if they are using windows based operating system. With windows operating system, Azure active directory is "the" go to software that any organization should invest in. Azure active directory comes from their original on premise active directory software so the program has years of experience on the field. I started using windows active directory back in 2003 and when azure active directory service came on it was a no brainer decision to migrate from on-premise solution to cloud. The product primarily address user authentication, file sharing, Document management (Share point) Office tools access like MS suite etc. We cannot work without an active directory in this day and age where hybrid and remote work is the preferred solution. The software also tightly integrates with almost all business ERP solutions like SAP, Oracle MS Sql etc. So you don’t need to maintain a third party tool for access control to these software’s. They also work with your exchange services so that it makes our onboarding of new users a breeze.

Microsoft Azure Active Directory is the key component of our identity, authentication, and authorization strategy. It is fully integrated with our HR platform for onboarding and separation and enables Single-sign-on, muti-factor-authentication, and a host of other basic and advanced identity-related services. Using all that Microsoft has to offer in this space simplifies our environment and makes additional third-party products specifically targeting identity management unnecessary.

We purchased the Office 365 A5 suite about three years ago. We use Microsoft Azure Active Directory across our entire district for 30,000+ users. This is what we use to help manage our users.

Across the whole organization - globally in US, Asia and Europe

Our Microsoft Azure Active Directory helps us manage all of our users including their metadata. It is used across all of our organization, helping us manage and maintain our departments employees and machines. Essentially, we use it as a central management tool that connects all our software and tools with our users and machines database.

[Microsoft] Azure Active Directory is currently used to replicate our on premise Active Directory. We use this across the organization to enable single sign-on to other Microsoft services including office 365, and our home grown web applications.

We use Azure Active Directory heavily as it's essential in our Cloud environment (Azure and Office 365) and also our main Identity Management solution to provide seamless authentication with multiple vendors and systems.

We are using it across the organization for authentication and access authorization purposes. It is central to our domain access. It helps us efficiently onboard and term employees. Our IT department manages all users and their access through this platform.

We are using Microsoft Azure Active Directory for managing our remote users for single-sign-on login from everywhere. We have integrated Microsoft Azure Active Directory with our on-premises active directory so that we don't need to configure everything from scratch. It provides us high availability with easy-to-configure options.

We use Microsoft Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) both as an internal directory and single sign-on solution for the entire organization, as well as part of our cloud offering where we leverage the capabilities of Microsoft Azure Active Directory and provide additional authentication mechanisms for our business customers.

We use it for centralized user management, for SSO to Microsoft and non-Microsoft applications, and for computer management via GPOs. It's used enterprise-wide. It saves users remembering many different passwords, and streamlines the creation, provisioning, and termination of user accounts. By centralizing passwords, users can use a stronger password, improving system security across all the SSO-enabled applications.

We currently use Microsoft Azure Active Directory in a hybrid mode with on premise Active Directory. We are beginning to use Microsoft Azure Active Directory more and more, utilising SSO, Conditional Access, MFA, Intune and other features.

Azure Active Directory is used to manage all of the Windows accounts with our company.

Azure Active Directory is being used across the entire organization. Azure AD allows us to manage access/permissions for various applications, resources, etc.

We are service provider and an ISV, we build and customize software and deliver IT Solutions to our customers, we needed an identity and access management solution that is widely compatible with our application infrastructure as well as allows us to integrate content across tenants, we also wanted a unified and simplified IAM experience for our internal users, our customers and contractors.

AzureAD was definately the optimial option, it allowed us to unify our IT administration experience through tightly integrated capabilities, and simplified synchronization of objects from On-Premises Active Directory, additionally, most of our online services for internal users are on Microsoft 365, in such scenarios, AzureAD is absolutly the best choice for our organization.

It scaled nicely as the company grows, and offers RBAC, Conditional Access and Privileged Identity Management, it also supports most of the common authentication scenarios and protocols that we require in our business, we are very much satisfied with how AzureAD works and it is definately a reliable and flexible IAM solution.

Azure Active Directory is being used across the whole organization as our employee single sign on solution. Our department also uses a separate subscription for managing our own services. We mainly use AD groups to manage user access to different services. It's very easy to use and do user onboarding.

Our organization uses Azure AD for verification across all platforms. But not only that, I also implement ERP software based on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and integrate it with Azure AD for customers. The Azure administrator of the customers create an app registration, which I then use in Business Central for integration. That way the users of our customers can use their Office 365 credentials to access Business Central. For the app registration to work well, I have to work with the customers system administrator. The app registration has to be set up thoroughly for it to work well with Business Central.

The whole organization utilizes AzureAD. It allows for a secure, reportable identity management system that can be controlled and utilized anywhere in the world.

We use Azure Active Directory across our whole organisation. Furthermore, I implement and support AAD at other organisations too. Azure Active Directory replaces local Active Directory for organisations that have moved to the cloud and reduced or completely got rid of their on-premises server infrastructure.

Azure Active Directory is being used in conjunction with our SharePoint 360 environment to manage users from multiple functional areas of our company. We use it store user information as well as their access levels. Any changes to the settings in Azure Active Directory reflects the user's permission levels across multiple platforms on our network.

[Microsoft] Azure Active Directory has been used by the whole organization, primary for authentication for SaaS applications and Azure resources. We have addressed a lot of business needs, some of them are laptop deployment, control and maintenance, also single sign on for SaaS applications.

Azure AD is being used for authentication to Office 365 applications and other 3rd party applications that integrate with it. We use Azure AD across the entire organization. Azure AD has helped us utilize one identity across multiple applications, both internally and externally. Single Sign-On through Azure AD is critical for buy-in from our end users, especially the end-users that are not tech-savvy.

Currently, Microsoft Azure Active Directory is being used by a department and select few users in a Pathfinder phase. We have limited its use as we have not fully implemented the cloud in the Enterprise, although our goal is to reach that in the next year or two. Right now, we are finding the ease of use with Azure Active Directory in terms of its simplicity, and the fact that many users can have different roles to leverage it, based on whatever workload they support.

We use M365 within our school district, and as such, Microsoft Azure Active Directory is our cloud identity provider for all our user accounts (faculty, staff, and students). Ultimately, we are a hybrid Microsoft Azure Active Directory environment, with an on-prem Active Directory that syncs to local objects to Azure. This synchronization helps address the need for cloud-based access to resources that would otherwise be unavailable if we were solely working from an on-prem Microsoft Azure Active Directory environment. We have considered moving all our users and devices to being 100% cloud based; however, the current Microsoft Azure Active Directory infrastructure we are a part of (multi-domain forest) is not currently suited to support that transition at this time.

We use Azure Active Directory internally for our entire organization, including single sign-on to all the third-party SaaS solutions our employees work with, and we have a large portion of our business dedicated to Azure AD consulting for our clients. We use Azure AD as the foundation for our zero-trust security posture.
