Password Reset Portal

Tickets to reset passwords or unlock user accounts make up a significant number of service requests that IT admins and helpdesk staff have to deal with. They affect productivity and increase helpdesk costs. Microsoft has therefore equipped Azure AD with Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR). This feature allows end users to reset their Azure AD password themselves, without helpdesk intervention. However, Microsoft’s on-premises AD does not provide a built-in option for SSPR. There is a workaround, but it is complex and requires the integration of Azure AD with local AD.

4 good reasons

why you should choose the FLOWSTER Password Reset Portal
instead of Azure AD SSPR

1

Low
Subscription costs

If you want to use the SSPR functions of Azure AD only in the cloud, this costs at least 5.60 € per user and month. If you also want to use these functions on-premise, the subscription costs increase to €8.40 (without Office365). With Office 365, you have to pay at least €10.50 per user and month.  

The FLOWSTER PRP costs only € 0.10 per user and month*.

2

Supports both local and hybrid AD

The FLOWSTER PRP supports your directory service both locally and in the cloud – without limitation to Microsoft products. Although Microsoft provides SSPR for local AD, setup is complex and requires additional purchases. FLOWSTER PRP is quick and easy to set up and use with many directory services.

3

Maximum ROI by registering with the helpdesk

With FLOWSTER PRP, user registration takes place automatically via an onboarding process at the helpdesk. Users do not have to register themselves and are quickly ready to work again (24/7). The registration techniques of Azure AD can be easily bypassed by users.

4

Advanced audit functions

The FLOWSTER Password Reset Portal automatically generates exportable audits of all account changes made. Azure AD only provides monitoring reports on user activities related to SSPR.

The working world has changed

The Corona pandemic in particular has permanently changed the world of work in almost all areas. Traditional core working hours have been replaced by new working models. Fixed home office arrangements, for example, enable employees to adapt their working hours to the new challenges in their private lives. Meanwhile, many employees also work in the evening and at the weekends due to childcare and homeschooling. What’s more important is that you do your work – when this happens is no longer the top priority.

As important and right as the changed working time models are for employees, they pose a special challenge for companies. Hardly any company can afford to triple its helpdesk in order to guarantee round-the-clock IT support for its workforce.

YOUR ADVANTAGES

Authentication via e-mail address and token as well as separate outward and return communication paths prevent unauthorised access. No account-related data are stored in the portal. The password is reset on a separate system.

Simple and quick adaptation of the “Password Reset” and “Unlock User” workflows.
