Microsoft Entra External ID

Azure Active Directory B2C helps provide seamless access to all the services and apps to the people either working on-site or working remotely and helps them stay productive. With the graphical overview of monthly activity, the Azure Active Directory B2C also makes it simple to manage all sign-ins. It is very reliable and secure.

Good for managing all your sign-ins and helps provide secure access from anywhere.

We use the Azure Active Directory B2C service to authorize access to our own custom web applications via API access. It is mainly used for authentication, control and monitoring of external users such as developers, and also for security reasons to defend against, for example, Denial of service, password hashing or brute force attacks.

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.

We use Azure AD B2C solution for one of our clients who need to authenticate end users to their mobile application and support their backbone as IT admins. It helped us to address and facilitate identity verification by gathering user data. Moreover, the progressive profiling feature helped their customers to complete their first transaction quickly and efficiently.

The cloud-based aspect is well suited for our client as they also switched to MS365 and Azure platforms from the On-site infrastructure of their IT. For companies that are still using on-premise IT infrastructure, it may not be the best solution due to the complexity of the user interface, and the learning curve can be challenging for this type of client.

It help us to keep track of our teams groups and manage the user roles very easily. This also makes it easy to manage our sign in's with a nice overview chart of your monthly activity. There are a lot of apps and add-ins that work with this service. It works well with Microsoft Dynamics. There are a lot of tutorials that walk you through setting up and using this product. It's really a great turn-key system that is very secure and user friendly.

Azure Active Directory has so many features. I love that with the B2C Collaboration it easily let’s you smoothly operate between personal and business security. You can also expand or contract that instance as you wish thereby increasing performance or decreasing cost based on the demand time to time. I wish the product had more customizations for collaborations such as multimedia integration/authenticate users for Microsoft 365

Azure Active Directory B2C allows users to sign into parts of our systems using multifactor authentication while still accessing the parts that do not need the added protection. The predefined user flows help create user experiences and access quickly, while the custom policies are for a more robust scenario. Both are unique and tailored to our needs.

Azure Active Directory B2C is well suited for businesses that require different levels of protection. You can use Azure Active Directory B2C for both signings into an application and added security once signed in. You can edit profiles, set up workflows, customize group policies, as well as provides several different verification methods such as email, phone call, SMS, or authenticator app.

Azure Active Directory B2C is our go-to platform for customer identity and access management (CIAM) needs, both for our internally-developed applications and products as well as for our clients' customer-facing applications. Despite the name, Azure Active Directory B2C excels at both business-to-consumer and business-to-business ("B2B") functionality; I often explain to people that "B2C" should be read as "business-to-customer." We have used Azure Active Directory B2C for everything from prototype apps and small business scenarios to very large enterprises with millions of user accounts.

Azure Active Directory B2C is sufficiently flexible and configurable that it can work in just about any customer identity and access management (CIAM) scenario. Its pricing model also scales well for both small businesses (for whom it's almost always free) and very large enterprises (who can optimize the cost of multifactor authentication at scale by using the Premium P2 SKU). Azure Active Directory B2C is particularly useful in scenarios where you want to integrate multitenant (corporate) Azure AD apps, for single sign-on from your AAD customers, with other accounts for your non-AAD customers.

The only technical limitation we've encountered over the years is that, natively, Azure Active Directory B2C does not support device "fingerprinting"; however, this functionality can be added (if needed) through Microsoft's Fraud Prevention service or other third-party solutions.
