SSO
Single sign-on, a login method where one company account signs you into several tools at once.
What it means
Single sign-on, or SSO, lets people sign in with a company identity provider instead of a separate password for each tool. An admin can then add or remove access in one place. Teams use it to tighten security and to speed up onboarding. SSO is usually limited to business or enterprise plans, so a personal plan may not offer it.
When you compare research tools for a team, check whether SSO is included in the plan you need or only in a higher tier. Ask whether the vendor supports the identity provider you already use, such as Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra, and whether it supports SCIM so that removed users lose access automatically. Those details decide how much work your admin does each month.
