Featured Reviews

William Kox - PeerSpot reviewer
Great policies and timelines for streamlined compliance
There are some areas where improvements are necessary. Even though we have almost the full package, there are some bugs. I cannot directly perform some tasks from the portal. First, I have to go to the policy, change it, and then return to the package to add it. I cannot do it directly from the package. Workarounds are needed, so that can be improved. At the moment, that is the only issue we are facing that needs enhancement.
A flexible solution for application management, and facilitated centralization of our IAM
We use HelloID for ourselves and clients, so we need to manage a lot of client environments at once. Functionality to manage this situation is not yet available. When something needs to be changed with the sign-on policies, we have to apply this manually to every client environment that we have.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Access reviews are an essential feature of Entra Governance. Additionally, privileged identity management is one of its most valuable features. Just-in-time access, or Jet GIT, is integral to this system. Moreover, user behavior analytics stands out as one of its top features."
"I am very happy with the solution."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Entra ID Governance for identity management is multi-factor authentication."
"The solution is fully scalable, supporting everything from small companies to large enterprises."
"The most valuable features are multifactor authentication and account creation for the Exchange environment in Office 365."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Entra ID Governance is access reviews."
"The product's most valuable features are the robust audit trail capabilities."
"It is compliant with our RVRT and CSV guidelines."
"Now we can easily control who has access to which client or client application."
"The Single Sign-On capabilities are endless and we haven't found a single app so far that couldn't be set up for SSO."
"You don't need to be a specialist in Identity and Access Management solutions to understand the software and configure it."
"The most valuable feature is the option to use SSO from different sources such as Microsoft AD, ADFS, Azure AD, SAML, form-based, etc."
 

Cons

"There are some areas where improvements are necessary. Even though we have almost the full package, there are some bugs."
"Microsoft Entra ID Governance is relatively new, and some features require more development. For example, when creating user access review campaigns, we can't specify the time to send emails to reviewers—only the date."
"If you want to conduct access review of database-based applications, then you cannot do that."
"The platform's configuration process needs improvement."
"Even though we have almost the full package, there are some bugs."
"Microsoft Entra ID Governance should improve its capability to manage identities and access from a single console."
"One area for improvement in Microsoft Entra ID Governance could be providing more granular control over security policies."
"The solution lacks the feature to work well with third-party applications."
"When something needs to be changed with the sign-on policies, we have to apply this manually to every client environment that we have."
"Sometimes it generates a username that is not unique, but at the time of this writing, it is not possible to generate a new one that is unique."
"I would like to have the built-in provisioning module improved."
"Integration with other Tools4ever applications such as SSRPM and IAM would be nice."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is not low but reasonable."
"There are no additional costs besides the standard licensing fees."
"While other products give the pricing for their application, Microsoft Entra ID Governance has a per-user-based license model."
"In the education sector where I work, the annual cost for my Google and Microsoft environments is approximately $35,000. This covers the needs of 3,400 students and 800 faculty and staff members."
"Since HelloID is very reasonably priced, the return-on-investment is fast."
"In terms of costs and pricing, this solution is worth every penny."
