# Can I create an account with my email and password instead of using an SSO?
## Yes, but you cannot log in with an SSO in the future for your account.
When you are invited to join a company in Opscompass, you are given a link to our log in page.
To log in to Opscompass, there are three options:
1. Microsoft SSO
2. Google SSO
3. Using an email and password
Whichever log in method you use upon sign up will be the method you **always use**.
If you choose to use your email and password for this initial log in instead of an SSO you **will not** be able to use an SSO in the future.
The only way to switch log in methods is to be removed from your company and added again.
