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.

As 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.

However, 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.

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.

When you move a computer from Joined to a local AD over to Azure AD you lose some of the management options (GPO).

overall i think that AAD is the best user management tool for big organizations, it's high adaptability and range of integrations allow this platform to fit in almos any infrastrucutre

the integration with both AD on premise on google workspace make this tool the perfect paltform for a migration to a cloud based only organization

the interface it's very complex, created by many submenus it can take some times for an admin to get accostumed to it. another thing is that many advanced features are locked behind an additional paywall

We had Office 365 licecnes but were not using them due to being a Lotus Notes environment. Moving off this to Outlook/teams/sharepoint meant having a away to configure users to be able to access these easily. It meant group based sercurity and access, it meant SSO and MFA. All configured easily through AAD.

Being able to sync form my on premise AD means i can configure and provision users in one place and have their details available for M365 applications and powerfull tools such as password self service, MFA and SSO.

There are still some limitations that mane i cannot just have a fully cloud based AD platform. I still need locak AD on a server onnected with Azure AD. Hopefully soon it can go and i can have just the one.

Azure active directory is a must have for any organization with Identity & Access management.

Azure AD helped us integrate lots of solutions and managed access and helped secure our Identities. Service availability was one area we struggled with using Active directory on Prem servers, since we integrates with Azure, it reduced the overhead and the stress managing the on Prem servers

Troubleshooting technical issues by Microsoft team could take some time and getting the right technical support could be difficult sometimes
