# SSO

{% hint style="info" %}
For information on specific SSO integrations, visit our Integrations Guide [here](https://guides.mangoapps.com/integrations-guide/single-sign-on/single-sign-on-integrations).
{% endhint %}

Use Modern Identity Management (SSO) to securely authenticate users to company applications.

MangoApps comes with the dual capability of acting as a SP (Service Provider)/Relying Party & as a IDP (Identity Provider). Hence simplifying the authentication process for various applications that support SAML2.0 or OAuth2.

In the following section you'll find details on how to configure MangoApps for the aforementioned roles.

## Features

#### Simplify The User Experience With SSO

Once a user has signed into MangoApps, enable them to easily and securely access all of their applications and resources with SSO.

* Access company applications right from the dashboard with the SSO widget
* Provide employees with quick link access to their most frequently used resources
* Authenticate users to any third-party, Cloud, or on-premise application

#### Quickly Access Company Apps

Users can access company resources through SSO links that are available on the user’s dashboard, primary navigation bar, or the SSO applications widget.

#### SSO Dashboard Widget

Users can securely access company apps right from their dashboard. All applications configured to use MangoApps as the SSO provider are automatically listed in this widget.

#### Add Configured Applications

Admins can add and push configured applications to user dashboards, providing them with updated application access without disrupting their personalized user dashboard.

#### Catalog of Pre-Integrated Applications

MangoApps includes an application catalog of pre-integrated cloud applications using SAML 2.0 as the sign-on method. Admins can add these apps to the user dashboard, allowing logged-in users to connect to any of the applications without re-entering credentials.

#### MangoApps Wizard

If you use an application that is not currently in the application catalog, MangoApps provides an easy wizard to add your cloud or on-premise applications.
