"I am impressed with Entrust because they are one of the most advanced identity access management companies. Their portfolio of products is well aligned with the CISA zero trust framework. If you compare the features of Entrust products with the CISA pillars of zero trust, you'll see that they're perfectly matched with CISA requirements."
"It is a scalable solution. You can add users and credentials without problems."
"The integration matrix of the solution is huge compared to others."
"Entrust is an enterprise account, and they have a support system. Their training is also top-notch, and they are willing to share their knowledge with their partners."
"With Azure Active Directory we were able to manage with different options the access for different users."
"It is a really nice tool and we have a license for the more complex model."
"User and device management is the most valuable feature."
"This product is easy to use."
"It's something we have to deal with every day. It is present. If you're in a domain environment, you'll need it to log in. If you work in a Microsoft-centric environment, you can't avoid it."
"Azure AD has features that have helped improve our security posture."
"It has been very instrumental towards a lot of services we run, especially on the single sign-on side. For example, we have 160 countries that all run their own IT but we still are able to provide users with a single sign-on experience towards global applications. So, they have a certain set of accounts that they get from their local IT department, then they use exactly the same account and credentials to sign into global services. For the user, it has been quite instrumental in that space. It is about efficiency, but also about users not having to remember multiple accounts and passwords since it is all single sign-on. Therefore, the single sign-on experience for us has been the most instrumental for the end user experience."
"The features around permissions are excellent."
"I would like to improve the tool's implementation and pricing."
"It functions well on-premises, but integrating it with cloud services like AWS or Azure could be challenging. There are issues with cloud integrations, such as Azure, AWS, and GCP."
"We are introducing new processes and are migrating to a new version. Once we explore new functionalities, we'll be able to assess what could be improved."
"The product is very costly compared to other alternative solutions."
"The solution could be improved when it comes to monitoring and logging as these are the most critical areas in case something was to go wrong."
"The initial setup was complex."
"A nice feature that is not currently present, would be if they had some visualization tools."
"The solution was difficult to scale because the group's configuration was complex. I would rate the scalability level of Azure Active Directory a five out of ten."
"A couple of years ago, I experienced some difficulty in implementing the solutions, the services of Azure AD. In one instance, I was not able to configure Azure AD for a registration. This was two or three years ago. However, currently, the documentation is very clear and there are no loopholes or anything that could hinder even a simple IT administrator to implement these services."
"I would like it if Intune could manage MacOS or iOS directly. Right now, we have to use a third-party solution."
"The monitoring dashboard could be a bit better."
"The pricing is okay, however, it could always be better in the future."
