Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Entra ID
Our company is an identity governance company and so it integrates with Entra ID to provide the identity governance solutions to our customers so that they can basically have good discoverability as well as request review system for the permissions associated to their Azure products via Entra ID. And because of that we consult on how other companies will use Entra ID.
- I'd say its group management system is pretty good. It does nesting of groups, which is not super common anywhere else, and that gives user identities the option to have a chaining system where you can be in multiple different groups since they get permissions from another group. So this nesting of groups helps in organization of people and their groups that they have.
- I would say the service account integration because service accounts are a confusing term within Entra ID, they have service principles as well as applications. There is not fantastic documentation on how applications and service principles are interrelated to each other. The UI is not very intuitive, so it can get confusing for users to differentiate between what is one and what is the other. And because the terms are used interchangeably in some places, but in other places like the APIs they aren't, it can cause a lot of confusion for someone who's picking it up.
- I'm not too sure on that answer.
On cloud, we don't really have too many changes happening in Entra ID to actually account for it because we will start having it personally very soon. Right now we only have it for our customers, so I can't kind of explain how they make the changes. So that's all I can offer.
Again, that's down to our customer, so I'm not quite sure about that.
Yes, we have our own SaaS application that we connect to Entra ID, which is bulk ID itself. And yeah, we use that to integrate with Entra ID.
I can't quite explain that simply because our customers already began with Entra ID, so we kind of inherited their Entra ID set rather than them picking it up. So, I don't have an answer.
Because our customer base has a lot of use cases where they need Entra ID because they have their own Azure products, so it kind of came with the bag of customers that we have that we need.
