LoginMaster vs Microsoft Entra ID

The vendor-neutral alternative to Microsoft Entra ID

Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) is powerful, but it ties identity to the Microsoft ecosystem with tiered per-user licensing (P1/P2) and data in the Microsoft cloud. LoginMaster is a vendor-neutral European IAM with unlimited users and data that stays in your Tenant.

Why consider an alternative to Entra ID

If you are not fully on the Microsoft ecosystem, or you want to avoid lock-in and the per-user costs of Premium plans, an independent platform makes sense. LoginMaster offers SSO, MFA and multi-tenant management without tying you to a single vendor, keeping identities in your Tenant.
