PeopleSoft lacks native SAML support, so implementing an “off-the-shelf” Single Sign-On like Okta, Azure AD, Ping Identity, etc. can present challenges. This typically results in PeopleSoft being isolated from an organization’s IAM strategy. Organizations frequently attempt custom code projects that are complex, frequently break and require constant maintenance. Appsian addresses the PeopleSoft SAML challenge by delivering the SAML integration layer required to connect PeopleSoft, an Identity Provider, and your enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO.) This solution is natively installed into PeopleSoft and does not require the use of customizations or proxy servers.

Enable Seamless, Secure User Authentication. Leverage Identity Providers like OKTA, Azure AD, ADFS, Shibboleth, and more:

Eliminates PeopleSoft login if user already authenticated with Identity Provider
Facilitates deep-link navigation without re-authentication
Enables organizations to leverage multiple Identity Providers
Does not add customizations or additional hardware

Appsian’s Configurable PeopleSoft SAML SSO vs. Custom Development

Appsian solves the SAML SSO integration challenge by providing the only configurable SSO for PeopleSoft. There is no other solution available that does not require customizations to PeopleCode or added hardware.

	Appsian PeopleSoft SSO	Custom Development
IMPLEMENTATION	Go-Live in as little as 7 days Browser-based configuration of your IdP’s SSO in PeopleSoft No additional hardware or custom development required Support multiple IdP’s concurrently for consolidated systems with separate user groups	Customizing PeopleCode requires specialized knowledge Often requires additional hardware Spinning up and connecting additional web server with current environment
MAINTENANCE	Add-in is independent from PeopleSoft/PeopleTools updates Stable, tested product used in hundreds of PeopleSoft environments with minimal maintenance Fixed maintenance schedule with fixed costs	Additional workload for application management and development teams Often fragile with continuous maintenance requirements Risk of runaway costs; TCO can grow into uncertainty
SUPPORT	Full support team available 24/7 to assist with any challenges Updated software packages made available to customers with each PeopleSoft update	No standardized support model Requires highly technical skillsets familiar with the customization
