We performed a comparison between LastPass and Microsoft Entra ID based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes."
"Increased security around password management for teams and collaborative efforts with external vendors."
"Scalability is fine, no issues with that, especially now that they have added different user-level permissions. That has made it a lot easier to delegate out certain features to have other people do."
"The stability has been rock solid. A couple of years ago, they were breached. However, if you had two-factor authentication enabled, it didn't affect you. We did, so it has been good."
"The initial setup for this process is straightforward and extremely easy. It just works."
"The shared folders is an important feature. It's the primary feature we use. Also, the ability for LastPass to autofill and hide the passwords, so we don't have to keep changing passwords every time a person leaves, is valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the liberty of keeping encrypted passwords and elevated information in a sealed vault."
"Tech support has been good. We haven't needed it much, because it is not a complex application. There is not that much you have to do with it."
"The solution's ease of use is one of its most valuable features."
"The most valuable features in Active Directory are the password writeback product and the MDM technology."
"The benefits of using this solution were realized straightaway."
"Conditional Access is a helpful feature because it allows us to provide better security for our users."
"When logging on to Azure AD it's pretty quick."
"Active Directory itself is the best feature it has. It also gives us a single pane of glass for managing user access."
"Its ability to provide secure connections to people at all locations is the most valuable. It is mostly used by enterprises."
"Technical support has been great."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
"I also don't like the add-in for Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, because when you do the add-in, you can actually save that to your credentials in your IE, and the problem is, if I left my screen open, or any of the IT people leave their screen open someone could come up and access all their credentials in LastPass without having to put a password in within your own network. I don't like that functionality. We've banned that from any of our staff adding that as an add-in because we see that as a security risk."
"One thing I wish LastPass had is an integration with Active Directory, not for synchronizing users but to actually manage, in some way, privileged accounts by replacing the password of LastPass itself."
"It is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"Right now we have two products; there is the password manager and there is the authenticator app. Ideally, these should be fully integrated and support better handling of two-factor authentication or any other authenticator data."
"I struggle a little bit with the mobile app. As a browser extension, it works really well, and we are able to get to what we need to. However, on the phone, it's not quite as easy to navigate."
"The biggest thing is there is no good way to have LastPass rotate passwords without human intervention. Right now, we have to go into each folder, then rotate and manually update each password. It can be done it by loading a bunch of passwords into a spreadsheet, but this makes the whole process insecure because then the passwords have been noted into a spreadsheet which have to be upload. We have to go into 40 to 50 applications and manually update passwords, because we don't view their solution of writing a bunch of passwords on a spreadsheet, then uploading them as a secure solution. This should be done internally within LastPass."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"Azure Active Directory could improve the two-factor authentication."
"When you start to deal with legacy applications, provisioning is not as intuitive."
"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."
"When it comes to Azure, creating certain things or getting different resources isn't very clear. You need a certain level of knowledge of the system. It could be a little bit more friendly so that some of the things can be done easily, but after everything is created, it's easy to use."
"The dashboard and interface could be better. It would be ideal if it was easier to use."
"The product takes at least ten minutes to activate privilege identity management roles."
"Tech support is inconsistent."
"Better deployment management and visibility functionality would be helpful."
