Executive SummaryUpdated on Oct 19, 2025

OneLogin by One Identity and Microsoft Entra ID are key competitors in the identity and access management space. Microsoft Entra ID holds the upper hand due to its deep integration with the Microsoft ecosystem, especially for organizations using Azure and Office 365, providing robust security and user management functionalities.

Features: OneLogin by One Identity is valued for its desktop single sign-on, multifactor authentication capabilities, and easy integration with Active Directory. It also offers features such as user provisioning and self-service password resets. Microsoft Entra ID is noted for its strong identity protection features like conditional access, multifactor authentication, and seamless integration within Microsoft's ecosystem, which secures access at the user level.

Room for Improvement: OneLogin by One Identity needs more advanced two-factor authentication, improved SmartFactor Authentication reporting, and a more robust infrastructure to address occasional outages. Microsoft Entra ID could benefit from clearer documentation, an enhanced user interface, better integration with non-Microsoft applications, and simpler pricing structures for improved customer experience.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: OneLogin by One Identity, being primarily cloud-based, offers excellent customer service with prompt and professional support. However, engineer bottlenecks can lead to delays. Microsoft Entra ID provides flexibility across various cloud models, though users sometimes experience slow support responses due to complex deployment scenarios. Both solutions are praised for robust customer support, though Microsoft Entra ID faces challenges in broad deployment scenarios.

Pricing and ROI: OneLogin by One Identity is competitively priced, offering valuable ROI through time savings and optimized processes. Microsoft Entra ID's pricing is versatile for Microsoft 365 subscribers but can become costly with additional premium features. Its frequent updates can complicate licensing understanding, though it generally offers substantial value, particularly in security and operational efficiency.

Faced deployment delays and daily errors but have streamlined access reviews and improved termination processes

The deployment of Omada Identity is complex; the product is not brilliantly documented, and it lacks the same level of documentation that could be found for systems such as SailPoint or Saviynt, making it harder to find material or help online, particularly with Omada Cloud. The system performance of Omada Identity is inconsistent; we've been analyzing this issue together with Omada, but we haven't been able to resolve whether the problem lies on their side or my client's side, which causes long response times and long run times in Omada sometimes. Omada Identity does not help deploy IGA within 12 weeks; the time frame for applying the rapid deployment solution was much longer than expected, and I am unsure if it is built on best practices across all systems. When we receive an error or system message from Omada Identity, it's very hard to decode what it means; we have had serious issues in daily imports that we can't explain, indicating a need for improved stability. The comprehensiveness of out-of-the-box connectors that Omada provides differs; the connectors for Microsoft and Salesforce are good, but for SAP, they are basically non-existent.

Security focus and seamless implementation increase platform productivity

Microsoft Entra ID can be improved in many ways, and there's a big wish list.If we're focusing on security, something that I definitely expect is improvement in the UI and UX for frontline workers. This is important, especially for non-tech savvy individuals. It is something Microsoft Entra ID could do to improve for a wider audience. It's important to focus on the frontline workers since they are non-tech savvy individuals. They are not like those back-office engineering C-level employees who are constantly dealing with computers, and we need to build a specific user experience and user interface for them to handle this stuff. That's something I expect Microsoft to focus on more for Microsoft Entra ID.

Streamlines access management with top-notch support, and a user-friendly interface, making it a highly effective solution for businesses of all sizes

During my evaluation of various products, one standout feature of OneLogin that impressed me was their mobile app for authentication through push notifications. Unlike traditional methods involving rotating codes, the OneLogin app simplifies the process by sending a push notification asking if the login attempt is legitimate. If confirmed, the login proceeds seamlessly. The primary benefit is its user-friendly interface, making it particularly accessible for non-technical users. One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance. Their sales team has also been highly responsive and helpful in connecting me with necessary resources, although we haven't faced any major challenges.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Omada's user interface is elegant and easy to work with. I like Omada's ability to automatically generate accounts for new hires and allow them access to all required systems by established policies. Around 80 percent of workers can start working immediately on their first day without requesting further access."

"Omada offers a technical solution that addresses both our needs."

"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."

"The support for the validity of the resources is valuable. The tool allows resource assignments within a validity period so that the managers do not have to remember to revoke the access once the work is done."

"Omada Identity has helped us consolidate solutions for access management as they provide access request concepts, access reviews, and different types of access reviews that can be used."

"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."

"The teams we work with at Omada provide great insights and support. Overall, it has been a pleasure working with them. That's the part we value the most."

"The most valuable functionality of the solution for us is that when employees stop working for the municipality, they are automatically disabled in Active Directory. Omada controls that 100 percent. They are disabled for 30 days, and after that time Omada deletes the Active Directory account. The same type of thing happens when we employ a new person. Their information is automatically imported to Omada and they are equipped with the roles and rights so they can do their jobs."

More Omada Identity pros

"The most valuable feature of Azure AD is its ability to connect with services outside of Microsoft, although documentation is necessary to properly implement these connections."

"In terms of identity management, it helps to improve security posture. It generally helps in terms cloud security, simplicity, and single sign-on for multiple apps."

"Privileged Identity Management and Privileged Identity Management make controlling access considerably easier and ensure that authorized access is achieved."

"It is pretty good in terms of stability."

"Conditional Access is a helpful feature because it allows us to provide better security for our users."

"The feature that I have found most valuable is its authentication security. That is Azure Active Directory's purpose - making cloud services' security and integration easier."

"Conditional Access, Geofencing, and Azure Multi-Factor Authentication are the major security features to secure resources."

"Overall, I think the support and the pictorial format of this web portal are very good."

More Microsoft Entra ID pros

"When it comes to access management, the solution's single pane of glass is extremely important. The single pane of glass for access management enables collaborative work between IT and security. We have access to certain applications that require device trust. Based on the role, we can access those applications through OneLogin Desktop."

"Simplicity is the most valuable part of OneLogin."

"Once I made the OneLogin ID, it would essentially make user names and passwords for every application that we had."

"The solution allows the user to search logs based on a specific time."

"The directory integration and SCIM provisioning are probably the best features compared to competitors."

"The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."

"Ease of integration with AD."

"The single sign-on and the fact that we can integrate everything in one place and control from there were valuable features of this solution."

More OneLogin by One Identity pros

Cons

"One thing that we are not so happy about is the user interface. It is a bit dated. I know that they are working on that, but the user interface is quite dated. Currently, it is a little bit difficult to customize the user interface to the need of the business, which is a little bit disappointing. It needs it to be a little bit easier to operate, and it should have a better user interface."

"The current reporting tools in Omada are limited, but we expect significant improvements in the new version."

"When the re-certification process is launched that makes Omada very slow. There are performance issues in the current version."

"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."

"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."

"The biggest issue, which is the reason why we are transitioning from their product to SailPoint, is the overall user experience. From a technical perspective, it is a very good product, but from an end-user experience perspective, it significantly lacks."

"There's a challenge with handling large amounts of data in this system."

"The reporting on the warehouse data and the import process both have room for improvement."

More Omada Identity cons

"A recent incident we dealt with took four months to resolve with a seven-day deadline, which was quite frustrating."

"My problem with Azure AD is that it's designed for medium to large systems, and we're not that large."

"If any service is down, it can affect a whole region. We would need to wait on a ticket and get word from Microsoft to understand the issues. If it takes longer to resolve the issue on Microsoft's side, all we can do is wait for them to fix it."

"We have a custom solution now running to tie all those Azure ADs together. We use the B2B functionality for that. Improvements are already on the roadmap for Azure AD in that area. I think they will make it easier to work together between two different tenants in Azure AD, because normally one tenant is a security boundary. For example, company one has a tenant and company two has a tenant, and then you can do B2B collaboration between those, but it is still quite limited. For our use case, it is enough currently. However, if we want to extend the collaboration even further, then we need an easier way to collaborate between two tenants, but I think that is already on the roadmap of Azure AD anyway."

"I would like to dive into some of the things that we saw today around the workflows at this Microsoft event. I cannot say that they need to make it better because I do not have much experience with it, but something that is always applicable to Microsoft is that they need to be able to integrate with their competitors. If you look at IDP, they do not integrate with Okta."

"I want to see more features to improve security, such as integrated user behavior analysis."

"Microsoft's biggest challenge is the documentation."

"There is a feature that we have been waiting for regarding Bicep templates. The option to use Bicep templates to deploy Microsoft Entra ID objects from the Azure Portal is needed."

More Microsoft Entra ID cons

"While I initially used OneLogin's desktop feature to extend SSO, I discontinued it two years ago due to limitations."

"They have downtime twice a year or once in six months. During the downtime, the SSO page did not come up. When users wanted to get to their email, they were redirected to the OneLogin page, but the page did not come up, and MFA and logins failed. It completely crippled us."

"The uptime has not been great recently, with some outages lasting six, seven, or eight hours."

"To offboard, you have to manually click on this checklist, each of the checkmarks. It would actually be really nice if, for offboarding someone, you just click "offboard" and it automatically runs a script to do that."

"OneLogin needs to increase the number of connectors available out of the box to connect to the different endpoints. The number of out-of-box connectors should be increased."

"having a RESTful implementation instead of RPC would have been more desirable."

"We've been experiencing some pain points since the acquisition. For example, there have been some outages we didn't see previously, which are a big topic with my executive team. You have hundreds of applications relying on this service for login. If the service is unavailable, nobody can log into these applications."

"The tool must be made more robust."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."

"My client deals directly with the Omada Identity team in terms of licensing. I never look at pricing, so I'm not aware of how much the solution costs, but it's worth the money. Often, when you begin to use Omada Identity and it takes a while to set up, it'll be irreversible, and you'd depend on and focus more on the functionality of the solution, rather than its price tag."

"It is expensive. Fortunately, I had a very good procurement manager on my side, but they are expensive. The closest competitors are also very expensive. You get a full-fledged solution that can do everything you dream of, but you pay for everything."

"While Omada Identity carries a premium price tag, it proves to be cost-effective."

"It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."

"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."

"From an on-prem point of view, the cost is quite transparent and reasonable. The direct cost is primarily for licenses and maintenance on licenses."

"It is licensed per managed user per year."

More Omada Identity pricing and cost advice

"There are four different levels of subscription including the free level, one that includes the Office 365 applications, the Premium 1 (P1) level, and the Premium 2 (P2) level."

"The product's price is in the midrange."

"The solution was fairly priced the last time I checked the costs."

"For a small business buying individual licenses, it is an affordable solution."

"Azure Active Directory is expensive."

"We don't really have a choice. It's the one shop in town. If you want this, you have to pay for it."

"The pricing is good; it's not cheap but very reasonable."

"As a nonprofit, we have A5 licenses for nonprofits in education, so we at least have some reduced costs."

More Microsoft Entra ID pricing and cost advice

"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."

"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."

"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."

"The price of the licensing is fine."

"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."

"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."

"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."

"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
