Multi-factor authentication and single sign-on enhance user management capabilities
From my perspective, AWS IAM Identity Center is already enhanced and has many capabilities, covering numerous areas. I don't think they need any improvements currently. It works well for us. If users want single sign-on and multi-factor authentication, they can easily opt for AWS IAM Identity Center. I recommend AWS IAM Identity Center as it is beneficial to use. It helps significantly in maintaining users within products. I would rate AWS IAM Identity Center as nine out of ten because we use it as our main primary sign-on feature for our product. Sometimes it experiences lag, but there's always room for improvement, which is why I deducted one point.
