KuppingerCole Leadership Compass reports provide respected market analysis designed to help organizations identify which vendors, products, and services they should consider within a given market. The IGA Leadership Compass report includes a detailed evaluation of market players, equipping technology decision makers with the knowledge to analyze vendors based on their organization’s current identity security priorities. The report focuses on security, functionality, integration, interoperability, and usability, as well as vendors’ innovativeness, market position, ecosystem, and financial strength.

SailPoint provides the most comprehensive and advanced multi-tenant identity security platform on the market, utilizing AI and machine learning to enhance autonomous risk detection and mitigation, smart process orchestration, identity and lifecycle management, and access provisioning.

“SailPoint's early recognition of Access Governance requirements... combined with strong marketing messaging and execution has led it to be one of the most evaluated IGA vendors for mid-to enterprise-sized organizations,” said Nitish Deshpande, Research Analyst, KuppingerCole. “SailPoint continues to enhance its provisioning, automation, AI driven risk mitigation, and reporting capabilities in a positive direction, making it a recommended consideration in any IGA evaluation.”

In a growing market, the report highlights the level of identity and access intelligence as a key differentiator between IGA product solutions and automation as a key trend to reduce management workload by automating tasks. The report goes on to cite SailPoint’s workflow management, excellent identity lifecycle management, and access review and certifications driven by AI/machine learning among a list of other strengths, underscoring SailPoint’s ability to provide an effective IGA solution that addresses today’s evolving identity management needs.

"It’s an honor to be named an Overall Leader in IGA by KuppingerCole once—let alone five years in a row,” said Grady Summers, EVP of Product, SailPoint. “Our position in this report is a testament to the work SailPoint has done to relentlessly innovate to address the ever-evolving identity needs of today’s enterprise. With a majority of breaches today tying back to a compromised identity, it’s clear that identity security needs to be foundational to enterprise security. SailPoint receiving the highest possible ratings across all evaluation categories reflects our strong and deep understanding of the existing and emerging security challenges enterprises face and our commitment to meeting the needs of our customers in today’s threat environment.”
