Forrester: All three vendors specialize in various kinds of cloud-app SSO and access control. Okta announced a partnership with Workday that enables it to offer employee identity management as a cloud-native proposition.

Salesforce.com announced what looks to be an insanely comprehensive IM+AM offering, with provisioning workflow and reporting options that leverage the increasingly mature Salesforce Platform. Other service providers we consider to be cloud IAM dark horses: Google, Intuit, and Amazon.”]
