id you know Single Sign-On (SSO) facility saves 30% of your IT help-desk time spent in resetting user passwords. You are wondering how? Read on to find out why SSO is needed for your business.

What is SSO

SSO or Single Sign-On refers to centralized user authentication services that allows the users to use a single set of credentials to access multiple apps. For instance, users can use their Google or Facebook login credentials to access other apps.

Why do we need SSO

Here are some reasons why we need SSO for our apps.

Remembering so many passwords is a challenge

Can’t remember your password? Click on the Forgot Password link and reset a new password to access the application. If this is happening quite often to you, don’t worry. You are not the only one. We use multiple apps in our day to day life and remembering passwords for each of these apps can be exasperating. The password fatigue or password overload syndrome is taking its toll on your app users. As a result, many decide to leave the app. Well, in such cases, SSO authentication facility is a must-have for your business. 

Password-protected applications can be vulnerable

Yes, your password-protected software applications are vulnerable to hacking or other malicious activities. Since a growing number of apps are hosted on clouds today, security concerns are valid. Multiple passwords can pose security limitations especially if you have a weak password. A single and strong credential is enough to secure your access to related apps and domains. Hence, SSO secures your app against possible hackers.

User-experience is improved

Users are free from the frustration of managing multiple access passwords for each app. A single login point makes it easier for them to work smoothly through multiple apps. Moreover, you also save time spent on resetting your passwords in case your memory fails you!! Thus, user administration becomes a whole lot easier.  Just click on the SSO login option and you are ready to get rolling.
