The All-In-One Corporate Identity Manager - Azure AD
In conclusion, overall, I highly recommend Azure Active Directory for any company looking to streamline their identity and access management processes and enhance the security of their IT systems. While there may be some challenges associated with setting up and configuring the software, the benefits are well worth the investment.
PROSAs an administrator of Azure Active Directory in my company, I have found it to be a valuable asset to our overall IT infrastructure. The software offers a range of features that have made our identity and access management processes more efficient and secure. One of the key benefits of using Azure Active Directory is its integration with other Microsoft services, such as Office 365 and Microsoft Teams. This allows for a seamless and secure way for employees to access their work resources, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and simplifying the user experience. Another pro is the robust security features provided by Azure Active Directory, such as multi-factor authentication and conditional access policies. These features have helped us to enhance the security of our IT systems and protect sensitive information from potential threats.
CONSHowever, there are also a few cons to consider. One issue I have faced is the learning curve associated with setting up and configuring the software, especially for those who are not familiar with Microsoft's IT infrastructure. Additionally, some users have reported challenges with integrating Azure Active Directory with non-Microsoft systems.

Inexpensive, Many Integrations
Cost was affordable and it provided an easy way to migrate from on prem domain controller to Azure AD. It also integrated with a number of the other SAAS applications we used making setting up integrated authentication easy.
CONSWhen you move a computer from Joined to a local AD over to Azure AD you lose some of the management options (GPO).
Reason for choosing Azure Active Directory
When we put the feature matrix together Azure AD had more features than the rest. Also a number of SAAS applications have or were building out integrations due to the number of companies using Azure AD.
Reasons for switching to Azure Active Directory
We were moving away from running our own servers and we also wanted SSO setup for all of our cloud services.

Excellent access management and identity management service
It's simple to use and straightforward, and because it's housed in the cloud, there's rarely any downtime. Groups and users can be created in seconds, and some more complex features, such as conditional access restrictions, make controlling access and implementing multi-factor authentication quite simple. Azure AD aided us in integrating several technologies, managing access, and securing our identities. We suffered from service availability when utilizing Active Directory.
CONSTroubleshooting technical difficulties by the Microsoft team may take some time, and obtaining the appropriate technical help may be challenging. With the dizzying array of permissions available, it might be difficult to determine which one(s) to apply for a specific use case.

The best solution for a Microsoft-heavy company.
I like the main dashboard gives you alerts on upcoming major changes and remediation to avoid service interruptions. There is the seamless integration with on premise Active Directory that makes it easy to sync and migrate. The monitoring blade is great to show access with details on time, user, application, remote IP Address, location and MFA. I also like the separation and ease to create service principals or applications and lock them down to specific roles. I also like the feature of setting accounts as Guest so that you can furter restrict non company users. Overall one of the best ID management solutions for Microsoft shops. Great API and powershell documentation
CONSNo compains but I wish more security features that are hidden are brought and promoted in the GUI.
Reason for choosing Azure Active Directory
Easier configuration and more features.
