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."The product is very stable and flexible. You can also integrate the solution with other products like mail solutions."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is an easy-to-use tool."
"I can use Active Directory to block a user's internet access and monitor how an employee is using the internet."
"Active Directory plays a focal point in security management, encompassing aspects like credential management, lifecycle, dynamic provisioning, and the network infrastructure of customers."
"It is a scalable solution."
"One advantage of Active Directory is that you can sync it with Microsoft Office 365, so you can manage on-premise and cloud operations, which can have different requirements. The flexibility of a hybrid management solution is valuable."
"The Solution's most important feature is that it can merge with a cloud-based active directory via Azure AD Connect."
"It is a stable solution."
"It is very easy to scale and use as you want."
"Red Hat SSO integrates well with our other solutions. Using OIDC protocols and ITL integration, employees can authenticate with Red Hat SSO and access our microservices."
"The product’s most valuable feature is its ability to assign only one password for the user at a false value."
"Good support for single sign-on protocols."
"Red Hat SSO has a lot of very concise, well laid out documentation, which is available in the free edition as well."
"I did not have a good experience with the product's tech support. First-level support takes a lot of time since they ask many questions."
"The interface hasn't changed much over the years. It's suitable for my tastes, but that doesn't mean everybody likes it."
"If Microsoft is going to add anything to the on-prem solution, it should be an updated GUI."
"The product's premium support services could be less expensive."
"There has been a change in the layout of the user information. Previously, I had to go to properties to view the information, but now it is displayed directly below the search results. It takes some time to get used to."
"In the solution, assigning permissions is complex, making it difficult to grant them at a granular level or to multiple users without templates or alternative tools."
"The product must provide remote password reset features."
"The solution could be made more safe by using authentication mechanisms."
"Security could be improved."
"The product’s technical support services could be better."
"Red Hat SSO's architecture could be updated."
"They could provide more checks and balances to find out if there have been any security lapses, e.g., if somebody is trying to break into the system. Some other products have these detection mechanisms in case someone is trying to hack into the system or find out a user's passwords."
