Howdy folks,
We have some exciting news to share. Today, we're introducing the ability for organizations to customize their Windows Azure AD sign in page.
This feature is now in Public Preview, and we encourage you to take it for a spin. It will be built into Azure AD Premium once it comes out of Preview.
When we started working on this feature, we set the following goals:
Without further ado, let's compare customized and non-customized sign in page. We'll use Office 365 as an example, but the same level of customization will apply when your users sign in to Windows Azure, Windows Intune, or any other website or app that relies on Windows Azure AD as an Identity Provider.
Regular sign in page to Office 365, on a desktop browser:
Same page, customized for your organization:
Regular sign in page to Office 365, on a smartphone:
Same page, customized for your organization:
You can customize the logo, the large illustration, and the boilerplate text that's shown at the bottom of the sign in zone. All elements are optional and can be localized separately. More details, as well as a complete how-to guide are available in this TechNet article .
If you want to try out this new set capability, please check out the TechNet article (you'll need to be an Azure AD tenant admin to configure the customization). Note that with the preview bits we're releasing today, end users will only see a customized sign in page when they sign in to their Office 365 webmail using a URL like outlook.com/contoso.com or mail.contoso.com . We'll refresh the Preview in early 2014 to light up other sign in scenarios.
As always, we're looking forward to your feedback. Please use this forum to provide feedback.
We've received a TON of requests for support for these kinds of custom branding capabilities, so we really hope you'll like them!
