Instead of the default landing page for users when they login, you can customize a little bit to reflect your brand.

You can do this through Azure Active Directory to offer a better sign-in experience.
In this short post, we’ll have a look at how we can achieve that in just a few clicks.

Minimum licensing requirements:

• Azure AD Premium 1 or,
• Azure AD Premium 2 or,
• Basic Editions or,
• Office 365

Configure branding in the Azure Active Directory portal

First things first, let’s connect to the Azure AD portal (directly or via the Office 365 Azure AD admin center)
Once connected, click on Azure Active Directory >> Company Branding >> Configure.

You’ll get a few fields to fill with regards to your customization. Once done, click on “Save” at the top.

You will see a small notification on the top right corner of the page…

What will users see?

Login in with a user account this is what users will be presented with 😋 (depending on your own customization and what you filled)
