Some of the best features of Azure AD are:

1. SSO (Single Sign-On), which enables users to access multiple applications with a single set of credentials

3. Identity protection - helps protect against identity-based attacks by detecting and alerting on suspicious activity.

I have been using Azure Active Directory for my organization's identity management needs for the past year, and I have been extremely satisfied with its performance. The platform is easy to use and navigate, and it has allowed us to streamline our login and access processes across our various systems and applications.

One of the things I appreciate most about Azure Active Directory is its security features. We have peace of mind knowing that our user accounts and data are secure and protected against unauthorized access. Additionally, the platform's integration with other Microsoft products, such as Office 365, has made it easy for us to manage our users and access across multiple systems.

Overall, I highly recommend Azure Active Directory for any organization looking for a reliable and secure identity management solution. It has been an invaluable tool for us, and I am confident it will be for others as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One aspect of Azure Active Directory that I dislike is its complexity. Depending on the size and complexity of your organization, setting up and managing Azure Active Directory may require a significant investment of time and resources.

For example, if you are integrating Azure Active Directory with multiple systems and applications, you may need to spend time configuring the integration and troubleshooting any issues that may arise. Additionally, if you are managing a large number of users and access permissions, you may need to invest time in setting up and maintaining these permissions within Azure Active Directory.

Furthermore, if you are not familiar with identity management concepts and technologies, you may need to invest time in learning about Azure Active Directory and how to use it effectively. This can be particularly challenging if you are working with a large and complex organization, as you may need to navigate a range of different systems and processes.

Overall, while Azure Active Directory is a powerful and reliable identity management solution, its complexity can be a disadvantage for some users. By being aware of this potential drawback, users can be better prepared to invest the time and resources needed to effectively set up and manage Azure Active Directory.

Another feature that users appreciate is the ability to set up and use the app on multiple devices, making it easy to access their accounts from any device. Microsoft Authenticator is a convenient and secure way to protect users' accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few things that I dislike about Microsoft Authenticator. One of the things that I find to be the most troublesome is that it needs to be configured to work correctly.
