Usernames - Case IN-sensitive?

I would love if usernames were not case sensitive! Currently, usernames are case sensitive. I constantly have to make sure to keep the logins lowercase as users have a tendency to forget and it causes issues!

This is a huge issue with people logging in on phones as they frequently capitalized the first letter. I spend too much time deleting accounts created wrong...

I came across this issue today in the process of migrating our company to WorkFront.

The fact that this issue has not been resolved is honestly very disappointing.

A unique credential such as federated ID or username should never be case-sensitive or non-unique.


There is absolutely no excused for having emails = username and with that then usernames not being unique and case-insensitive.

This is the first product I've ever used which has this issue and yes it is an issue.


I honestly hope to see some progress made here very soon.
