Our take
What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
- Okta Workforce Identity
Best for: Companies with many cloud apps
Okta is on the list because it is not tied to one app suite, so it fits a mid-market or enterprise company whose apps come from many vendors. One platform can cover sign-in, lifecycle and governance, which means fewer handoffs when people join or leave. If strict access reviews or privileged access are your main need, compare those parts with the specialist products on this list.
