About SailPoint

SailPoint is an identity governance and administration (IGA) platform. It connects to HR systems and business applications to create, change and remove user accounts as people join, move and leave, runs access request workflows, and runs certification campaigns where managers confirm who should keep which permissions. Policies such as separation of duties block risky combinations of access before they are granted. The SaaS product, built on the SailPoint Atlas platform, adds AI-driven recommendations, just-in-time access and governance for machine identities and AI agents, while IdentityIQ remains the self-managed option for organisations that need on-premises deployment. SailPoint is aimed squarely at large enterprises: it says over half of the Fortune 500 are customers. Pricing is sales-led with no public price list, and projects typically involve connector work and professional services. It is not a login or SSO tool; it usually sits alongside Okta or Microsoft Entra ID.

Best for: Large enterprises that need automated provisioning, access reviews and audit-ready identity governance.

What works

Mature access certifications and separation-of-duties policies
SaaS platform plus self-managed IdentityIQ
Governs machine identities and AI agents as well as people
Wide adoption among very large enterprises

Why people leave

No public pricing; enterprise sales only
Implementations are long and connector-heavy
Not an SSO or MFA provider, so a separate login tool is still needed
