Signing In

Orchid Alto VMS offers multiple ways to sign in, and will allow mixed authentication modes. So, Administrators may have multiple sign in modes available on the same Alto system.

Orchid Alto VMS supports each of the following external authentication providers:

• Google
• Azure Active Directory
  

Your Orchid Alto VMS Administrator should advise you on which sign-in method to use.

*The username and password are both case sensitive; if you have trouble signing in, contact your administrator.

Standard Sign In

Sign In with Google

With this method, you will be able to sign into Orchid Alto VMS using your existing Google credentials (eliminating the need for yet another password). This requires that IPConfigure Support has enabled Google Authentication, and an Orchid Alto VMS user is linked to your Google account.

Sign In with Azure Active Directory

With this method, you will be able to sign into Orchid Alto VMS using your existing Azure Active Directory credentials. This requires that some configuration is performed by IPConfigure Support.
