Summary and recommendation
Workshare, the legal document collaboration platform now part of Litera (Litera Compare), provides no SCIM provisioning capabilities on any plan. The platform lacks native identity management integration with major IdPs like Okta, Entra ID, or Google Workspace, requiring IT teams to manually provision and deprovision user accounts. Even basic SSO functionality appears unavailable, leaving organizations without automated authentication or user lifecycle management for their legal document workflows.
This creates significant operational overhead for legal teams and IT departments managing document access across matter teams, external counsel, and changing project requirements. Without automated provisioning, IT must manually create accounts for every new attorney, paralegal, or external collaborator joining document review projects. When matters close or team members leave, manual deprovisioning becomes a security risk, potentially leaving former users with access to sensitive legal documents and client information.
The strategic alternative
Workshare has no native SCIM. Automate offboarding, user access reviews, and license workflows across every app, including the ones without APIs. We maintain the integration layer underneath. You focus on judgment, not plumbing.

The cost of not automating
Without SCIM (or an alternative like Stitchflow), your IT team manages Workshare accounts manually. Here's what that costs:
The Workshare pricing problem
Workshare gates SCIM provisioning behind premium plans, forcing significant cost increases for basic user management.

What this means in practice
Without SCIM support, IT teams must manually provision and deprovision users in Workshare/Litera Compare. For legal teams that frequently onboard contract attorneys, paralegals, and external counsel, this creates significant administrative overhead.

Summary of challenges
- Workshare does not provide native SCIM at any price tier
- Organizations must rely on third-party tools or manual provisioning
- Our research shows teams manually provisioning this app spend significant hidden costs annually
What Workshare actually offers for identity
No Native Identity Management
Workshare (now Litera Compare after acquisition) provides no native SCIM support or advanced identity management features across any pricing tier:
| Feature | Pro ($195/year) | Business (Custom) | Enterprise (Custom) |
|---|---|---|---|
| SAML SSO | ❌ No | ❌ No | ❌ No |
| SCIM provisioning | ❌ No | ❌ No | ❌ No |
| User sync | ❌ No | ❌ No | ❌ No |
| Group management | ❌ No | ❌ No | ❌ No |
Manual User Management Only
Without any identity provider integration, Workshare requires:
Post-Acquisition Uncertainty
Following Litera's acquisition of Workshare, the product roadmap for identity features remains unclear. The legacy Workshare platform may eventually be consolidated into Litera's broader document management suite, but current customers are left with no automated provisioning options.
Bottom line: Whether you're on Pro or Enterprise, you're managing Workshare users manually. For legal teams handling sensitive documents, this creates both operational overhead and security gaps when employees join or leave.
What IT admins are saying
Workshare's complete lack of automated provisioning creates significant overhead for IT teams managing legal document workflows:
- Manual user creation and deactivation required for all team members
- No integration with identity providers like Okta or Entra ID
- Difficult to maintain compliance during employee transitions
- Time-consuming process to grant access to new legal team members
We have to manually manage every single user in Workshare. When someone joins the legal team, we can't just add them to a group - it's a separate manual process every time.
The lack of any SSO or provisioning integration makes Workshare a pain point in our otherwise automated user lifecycle. It's 2024 - why are we still doing this manually?
The recurring theme
Workshare operates in complete isolation from modern identity management systems, forcing IT teams to maintain separate manual processes for user lifecycle management in what should be a critical business application.
The decision
| Your Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Small legal team (<10 users) with low turnover | Manual management is acceptable |
| Mid-size firm with occasional new hires | Manual management, but consider automation planning |
| Large law firm (50+ attorneys) | Use Stitchflow: manual provisioning becomes unmanageable |
| Multi-office legal practice | Use Stitchflow: centralized user management essential |
| Enterprise legal department with compliance audits | Use Stitchflow: automated audit trail and deprovisioning required |
The bottom line
Workshare (now Litera Compare) offers no SCIM support or modern identity management integration. For legal teams that need reliable document collaboration with automated user provisioning, Stitchflow delivers the missing identity management layer that Litera doesn't provide.
