I'll throw out there that I work for JumpCloud, an Identity Management Provider, and we have a credential provider as well for seamless Windows login. We also have a Mac login window so your users have a seamless experience regardless of the OS (our Linux solution doesn't really need one). We've also got LDAP, RADIUS, gsuite, and O365 backends (plus more I'm forgetting I'm sure) and a ton of other niceties. Check us out if you're into that.
We also go beyond this and support MFA on Windows, Mac, Linux login.
Y'all should make a guide for setting up a small environment for a home network. With the homeschooling situation, our kids are suddenly using our various computers a lot, and it'd be really nice to have a simplified situation with one login across all computers. I don't want to run a server locally for it, but my Jumpcloud trial was a bit bewildering for this use case.
Would you mind speaking a little about what you had issues with? It's so hard to get feedback for the users who try us out where we didn't 'just click' for them, and I'd love to hear where some of our pain points are.
There's a pretty overwhelming amount of options to go through. A wizard or simplified console for home networks would be great.
I don't need Radius, GPOs, groups. I just want everyone in the family to be able to use their GSuite account to log in on any of the computers in the house... and it's hard to figure out exactly what I need to turn on/off to do that.
Side note: I'd happily pay a monthly/annual fee for a family version like this. We already do for things like GSuite and 1Password.
I know y'all are free for orgs up to 10 users, and my family is never getting that big (shudder), but a "Jumpcloud for Families" you could easily get me to pay for if it's super easy to use.
We also go beyond this and support MFA on Windows, Mac, Linux login.
Orgs with less than 10 users are free.
