Tag: Microsoft SAML 2.0

Use SSO Easy for SAML 2.0 and SAML 1.1, or use ADFS 2.0?

The good news:

ADFS 2.0 now supports SAML 2.0.
As a result, the demand for SAML Single Sign On (SSO) deployments is rapidly growing.

The bad news:

SAML 2.0 is still difficult to implement,
- Especially for certain use cases, and
- Especially for complex SAML deployments.

SSO Easy’s EasyConnect SAML solution offers a number of significant advantages over ADFS 2.0 for SAML 2.0 and SAML 1.1 deployments, including:

No Coding required – rich out of the box SAML function
Integration – rich out of the box integration, including support for both .net and JAVA/J2EE applications
Multiple SAML Connection Support – designed and built to enable and support enterprise SAML needs, including easy configuration and management of multiple SAML connections
Flexibility – easy to enable and support varied SAML use cases, including easy enablement of both IDP and SP use cases
SAML 1.1 Support – with EasyConnect, both SAML 1.1 and SAML 2.0 use cases are supported using the same EasyConnect implementation. (With ADFS 2.0, there is no support for SAML 1.1 use cases.)
