A K-12 School District who had previously implemented Google Apps Education Edition recently deployed SSO Easy’s Google Apps Single Sign On (SSO) EasyConnect software product solution.

In this representative SSO Easy Case Study, the SAML 2.0 enabled solution was successfully implemented in 1 day.

The client had no prior experience with SAML.

No coding was required to implement the solution.

A recent SSO Easy client, in a representative case study, successfully implemented SAML 2.0 based Single Sign On (SSO) function for 15,000 GMail users.

The challenge that this Google Apps customer faced was that they wanted to provide a secure environment for GMail, while also providing an easy to use software solution that enabled convenient user access to their GMail accounts.

The project was completed successfully in about a day and a half.

Google has created tremendous demand for Google Apps, and for GMail, the email component of Google Apps.

In order for the potential benefits of Google Apps and GMail to be realized, the integrated email system must be secure and easily accessible by users.  Single Sign On, or SSO, is the means by which this secure and convenient access is provided to users.

In order for organizations to provide Single Sign On capability for their GMail users, the SAML 2.0 protocol must be supported by the organization through the implementation of a SAML 2.0 compliant product solution.
