What is Salesforce Customer Identity?

Salesforce Customer Identity is an SSO solution that enables users to register and access apps through the convenience of passwordless login, to generate more authenticated users.

Need to improve the interface

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

With Salesforce Identity I have one-time access and I can access multiple apps all time. I don't need to remember so many usernames and passwords. I spend less time dealing with user login issues. Salesforce Identity uses multi-factor authentication (MFA) that makes the login process several times more secure for my company. I can access the apps on my mobile or desktop at the same time

  • easy to access
  • easy to understand

Cons

  • Is hard to use
  • too much information on the screen

SFI solved the password nightmare

Pros

  • SFI, allows you to connect and manage all your applications in one easy to use interface.
  • It has the ability to use many different authentication standards to fit all the different needs of the applications.
  • If the standard isn't supported it has the flexibility to create your own custom solution.

Cons

  • Not really anything, but perhaps the price, but it is fully featured and robust.

Return on Investment

  • The biggest return is on the auditing and ease of use for the users.
