Why IDM-Portal

Your functional departments have it in their own hands

Employees take control over their personal data in a fast and secure way.

Permissions are set in the background – and IT remains in control.

Fast Identity Management

IDM-Portal enables the delegation of AD/AAD user management tasks to functional departments.
By involving key decision-makers from non-IT departments,
user-provisioning processes are optimized and costs are saved in the long term.

Fast Identity Management means:

Why IDM-Portal: Advantages for employee in business department

…for your employees:

  • smooth, optimized working
  • all important access rights without time delay
  • immediate update of important personal data
  • up-to-date contact information of all colleagues

Why IDM-Portal: Advantages for employee in IT department

…for your IT:

  • noticeable relief from routine tasks
  • one interface for AD & AAD user management
  • full control over all actions thanks to RBAC and access rights
  • complete auditability through detailed logging

AD and Entra ID management is no longer just a matter for IT.
Speak to us about the multiple functionalities of our IAM solution.

Why is IDM-Portal so fast?

First things first: IDM-Portal does not need its own database
and thus keeps the number of your systems in check right from the start.

Instead, IDM-Portal processes your data directly in your directory in real time.
This makes it faster and more effective than other IAM systems.

Being highly compatible with other apps and databases, it integrates well with your infrastructure.

IDM-Portal not only saves on systems, time and labor:
it provides business departments with a user-friendly identity management tool.

What functional departments and IT get by using IDM-Portal

From a simple search for colleagues to the administration of users and access rights,
IDM-Portal offers a user-oriented identity management solution.

Why is IDM-Portal different from classic IAM systems

In contrast to a classic Identity Management System (IMS), the focus of IDM-Portal is on
easiness, adaptability and user-friendliness.
It also offers many connectors and functions of an IMS.

But there are significant differences:

  • The IDM-Portal focuses on user-friendliness and ease of use.
  • It is very quickly ready for use and is used as a frontend and interface to Active Directory.
  • For this purpose, IDM-Portal does not use proprietary technologies, but relies on Microsoft technologies
    (Active Directory, Azure, Microsoft 365/Office 365, Microsoft Entra Connect, PowerShell and Exchange).
  • It uses existing data for identity management purposes: there is no need for an additional database.
  • This allows IDM-Portal to gain significant added value from the systems used.
