Case Study: QAD achieves unified identity management and stronger security with OneLogin

The 15-year impact of OneLogin on QAD's identity security

QAD, a global leader in enterprise software for manufacturing, turned to OneLogin more than 15 years ago to resolve fragmented identities and the complexity of managing access across a mix of on‑premises and cloud applications. As the company grew—often through acquisitions—it required scalable multifactor authentication, automated onboarding/offboarding, and a seamless end‑user experience.

OneLogin centralized identity and access with SSO connectors, delegated admin controls, and SmartFactor Authentication, allowing departments to manage app access while IT retained visibility and governance. The result was stronger security (instant revocation, compromised‑password detection, geolocation controls), fewer access tickets, automated workflows, lower total cost of ownership, and freed IT resources to focus on innovation.
