Minimize password reset calls with single sign-on

Password reset calls are a costly nuisance for every organization. Usually the result of a lost or forgotten password, reset calls from employees tie up IT time and resources and hinder employee productivity as well. Of course, users can't shoulder all the blame for frequent password resets-password policies can be so complex and burdensome that it's no wonder employees can't keep their passwords straight. Single sign-on solutions can alleviate password reset problems by simplifying password management, however many solutions create new problems for IT by requiring expensive code changes, modifications to directories, or inconvenient workflow challenges.
