The challenges of migrating legacy apps to modern SSO/MFA environments
Expensive and Time-Consuming
Using legacy gateways or rewriting each legacy application takes months and requires significant resources and security expertise, turning the engineering team into a productivity bottleneck.
Security Gaps Remain a Problem
The long time to value when manually migrating applications means the security challenges you planned to solve with your modern identity solution could put your organization at risk for years to come.
Frustrating User Experience
Application end-users must continue to log in multiple times to access the applications they rely on.
Not Future-Proofed
Every legacy application that has not been migrated to your new environment must be updated manually and if you change your identity solution you’ll need to redo all your migrations.
Expensive and Time-consuming
Using open source proxies (like oauth2-proxy) or rewriting each legacy application takes months and require significant resources and security expertise, turning engineering team into a productivity bottleneck.

Datawiza Access Management Platform
Datawiza, the industry’s first cloud-native Access Management as a Service (AMaaS), helps companies accelerate their journey to a Zero Trust architecture by solving the “A” part of IAM: Access. Datawiza provides a no-code/low-code solution to migrate on-premises and other legacy applications and services to a modern IDaaS platform, including Microsoft Azure AD, Okta, Amazon Cognito and Google Workspace. By doing so, Datawiza enables businesses to centrally manage access to all applications, modern, legacy and homegrown, from a central location – all with policy-defined, URL-level access controls based on detailed user and device attributes, such as group, role, IP or browser.
Datawiza lets businesses standardize on a modern identity platform for all applications while continuing to leverage their investment in legacy solutions. The alternatives are continuing to use a separate legacy identity platform for older applications or buying new applications that support a modern IDaaS solution. Datawiza delivers the best of both worlds.


Datawiza Benefits
Migrate applications quickly and easily
Effortlessly migrate each of your on-premises and legacy applications into a modern identity management environment in minutes.
