Okta is one of the most well-known companies in the IAM space, but up-and-coming competitor JumpCloud has recently challenged Okta's dominance.
This review compares the essential features of JumpCloud and Okta to help you choose the right IAM software for your business.
If you only want to pay for one service that offers both SSO and MDM, go with JumpCloud over Okta.
With Okta's app integrations, you get a configured connection between Okta features like Okta Universal Directory and external applications like Box, Zoom and more.
I evaluated JumpCloud and Okta for their IAM functionalities, focusing on single sign-on, device integration and IaaS server connections.
Many companies use both JumpCloud and Okta simultaneously, relying on Okta for its robust SSO capabilities while turning to JumpCloud for its cloud directory service, mobile device management and other features.
