## Reviews

### "Hard to beat if other MS products in use" — 5.0/5

> **Martin** | *12 December 2025* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Microsoft Entra ID integrates nicely with other Microsoft products and it is quite easy to use. The sync from on prem AD to Entra ID is also advantage. Implementing Conditional access policies helps to improve the company security posture.
> 
> **Cons**: The pricing tiers/addons are not easy to understand and some settings does not follow security best practice by default, so it has to be changed later. Other thing is Microsoft is pretty much always changing the portal, so it can be sometimes tricky to find what you are looking for when expect to be at the old place.
> 
> Overall Microsoft Entra ID is a great product with a lot of pros and some cons. The main benefit would be the interconnection with Microsoft ecosystem as it is their product.

### "Great service, much included\!" — 5.0/5

> **Clay** | *14 July 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked that i could obtain an address for free, as well as the fact that it comes with so many services included.
> 
> **Cons**: I didn't like how I could not set my own domain, but the domain they issued me works fine as any other.

-----

### "Cloud-first Azure AD is the way to go" — 4.0/5

> **Matt** | *3 July 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Extremely powerful and flexible —it does a lot including streamlining all our directory management, SSO, etc. but it also expects a lot of admins. You definitely have to know your stuff to get the most out of it.
> 
> **Cons**: As it underpins all of the Microsoft 365 offerings an Azure AD/Entra ID outage will obviously kill a lot of your SaaS access for your entire org. Thankfully those are fairly few and far between. Microsoft is alos obsessed with moving things around and creating new portals, etc. so you need to start on top of Entra news to (re)locate things.

-----

### "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.

-----

### "Microsoft Entra ID Review" — 5.0/5

> **Katrina** | *14 November 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that it provides user access control and account security. It provides a easy to use platform to manage user data.
> 
> **Cons**: I do not dislike anything about it at this time. I find it to be a convenient platform to manager user data that is secure.
> 
> I have had a good experience with Microsoft Entra ID from managing user accounts and email addresses in one place.
