Why SSO?

The SAML SSO module has all the enterprise-level features like users’ attribute mapping, role mapping, attribute & domain based restriction and sign-in settings like forced SSO login, etc to meet all requirements of your organization.

  • One central control point: Your IT team can view, manage, and secure all your users access, whether they are internal employees or external partners from a single point.
  • Easy to adapt new technologies: Generally all Identity providers keep updating there technologies to meet the market requirements so you need not to worry about new changes in technology.
  • Easy to scale: In case of business expansion to new website or platform (mobile or desktop) you can just connect their login to the same IdP.
