Microsoft Entra External ID vs. Omada Identity Suite

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.

Omada is with very good and user-friendly interface.
There are various access management best practices available and recommended to
choose and configure easily.
The system works smoothly and is very reliable.
The Omada product team is frequently enhancing it and listens to customer
feedback.
There are out of the box integration capabilities with the most popular systems
on the market

• 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.

• There is no way to extend the validity of multiple Contractor/External user accounts by line manager and have to extend them one by one.
• Without custom development there is no way to create parallel access approval workflows.
