Compare Google Cloud Identity vs. SailPoint IdentityNow

Cloud Identity is an Identity as a Service (IDaaS) and enterprise mobility management (EMM) product. It offers the identity services and endpoint administration that are available in G Suite as a stand-alone product. As an administrator, you can use Cloud Identity to manage your users, apps, and devices from a central location - the Google Admin console.

IdentityNow is a full-featured cloud-based identity and access management solution, or IAM as a Service (IDaaS), that delivers single sign-on, password management, provisioning, and access certification services for cloud, mobile, and on-premises applications. As a critical component of the enterprise IT infrastructure, IdentityNow is architected to meet the most stringent security, scalability, performance and availability requirements.

IdentityNow was designed from the ground up to be a simple yet powerful, cost-effective IDaaS solution, with no hardware or software to deploy. It delivers immediate value to business and IT users with services that are fast to set up and easy to use. With consumer-focused usability, IdentityNow gives users simple, intuitive ways to manage their daily needs, from accessing cloud and internal web apps, resetting passwords or requesting and reviewing access.

Importantly, IdentityNow not only integrates to other cloud apps, but to all of the on-premises resources you would expect from an enterprise IAM solution. Our integration to both on-premises and cloud-based applications is designed to meet the most stringent IT security standards—a key requirement for cross-domain IAM.
