## Reviews

### "Microsoft Entra" — 5.0/5

> **Nathan** | *8 October 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like alot about Entra, from policy management to application integration. We are a hybrid enviroment so our AD syncs to entra with entra connect software. it streamlines our user management and MFA implementation
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing i don't really like, it is a well-rounded product and you would hope it is with Microsoft being in the game for so long

-----

### "Cloud Identity Management" — 5.0/5

> **Tiff** | *1 July 2025* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Azure AD integrates with most external software that we have procured, and it is very easy to implement Single Sign-On.
> 
> **Cons**: The Admin UI isn't that intuitive and the licensing structure is complex. The 40-minute sync between systems can sometimes cause delays and issues.

-----

### "simplifies user access management across apps" — 5.0/5

> **atul** | *6 April 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked Azure Active Directory’s strong security features and seamless integration with Microsoft 365 and other Azure services. Its single sign-on (SSO) capabilities greatly simplify user access management across apps.
> 
> **Cons**: I found Azure Active Directory’s interface a bit complex for new users, especially during initial setup. Troubleshooting issues like conditional access policies can also be challenging without deep documentation.

-----

### "Powerful User Management and Integration" — 5.0/5

> **AJ** | *22 January 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The most well rounded User management solution EVER. Working in an ever evolving access industry, having the ability to easily manage users is critical. Simple integrations with Active Directory and Intune are important in most business applications these days. Along with integration into business applications for SSO. Extremely powerful tool.
> 
> **Cons**: The whole suite can be a bit overwhelming at times. Between configuration, security measures, and integrations...it can get cumbersome.
> 
> Overall, my experience has been profound. The tool has set me up for success more times than not. While there was a large learning curve, once that knowledge was established, it was a breeze.

### "The licensing model needs work." — 3.0/5

> **Brandon** | *21 November 2025* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a natural extension from Active Directory. Syncing accounts and devices is very easy. I like that they offer things like conditional access and advanced security settings that make it possible to have a stronger security posture.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't like how convoluted the licensing can be. While they offer some conditional access policies at our current license level, we would have to bump up to E5 or P2 add on licenses in order to take advantage of some of the more robust policies. 

Certain reporting options and additional settings are also all blocked by paywall forcing you to either pay more money for more licensing or look at 3rd party solutions.
> 
> We've been using Entra ID since we've started our migration to 365. It was easy to get connected to our on-prem environment and get users moved over to Entra ID and operate in a hybrid deployment. We're now working to move to cloud only users, our endpoints have all been transitioned over to Entra ID utilizing Intune and Auto Pilot for deployment. The process has been pretty straight forward. I do wish the Microsoft Documentation was better or at least a bit easier to find. It would be nice if they had a clear step by step guide to follow.
