seamlessly between environments with few hurdles. It comes with
many advanced features such as:

» Security/usage reports.
» Cloud app discovery.
» On-premise write-back.

AAD Basic has similar features but with limits on the number of
apps and reports you can use.
» Limited to 10 apps per user for SSO.
» No advanced reporting and only three basic reports.
AAD Free is similar to AAD Basic but with further limitations.

Still not sure which version is best suited for your organization?
I recommend contacting your Microso representative or third-
party consultant to inquire about free consulting hours provided by
Microso. Speaking from experience, it was great to have experts in
this product come in, assess our environment and needs, then help us
choose and set up our version of AAD correctly. ILTA
