English term or phrase: drunk the federation punch
It's difficult—if not impossible—to measure the cost savings of reducing one sign-on. However, it's clearly of great value to gain a new customer because of an IT function that you can provide. And going forward, those who've drunk the federation punch believe there's more ROI to come, with a little thing known as stickiness—that is, getting people to order more cookies and conference rooms, because it's easier.

灌了联合身份管理迷汤


Explanation:
感觉这个中文表达同原文的意趣贴近一些
指那些痴迷于federation的人就象被灌了迷汤一样，而且从原文语境看这个表达是有些打趣的揶揄的，所以这样翻

agree  chica nueva: 敢'品尝'联合身份管理的人 (you never know what's in the punch until you try it - you might be surprised...) - [see intro 'When it comes to setting up Web-based single sign-on, the security benefits—and potential drawbacks—are not what you might expect.']
