User Testimonials
	9STAR EasyIdentity Cloud	Microsoft Entra External ID
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	It is not easy to calculate the actual ROI due to the difficult quantification of all factors, but it certainly contributed a lot in protecting, monitoring and controlling access to our system. It also made it much easier to detect vulnerable external users with simple and "easy to hack" passwords they use on multiple apps. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	One of the things that Microsoft Entra External ID does really well is creating user logins, accounts and profile. It is very easy to create them, manage them and delete them. It is fast and reliant. Limit access or authorization feature. We can allow different levels of authorization and access. So that not all the employees would have access to all the data. Only some relaible employees would have access and power to change anything. Mutli factor authentication feature is also a really good feature to secure data. Even overseas vendors need MFS to login which gives double protection to our data.

Cons	No answers on this topic	Troubleshooting diagnostic logs effectively requires VS Code Group and role management requires additional effort The programming model (XML) could use some developer experience love Incentivized Lars Kemmann Principal Architect Read full review
