One Identity for Everything
Securely and seamlessly manage user identities and connect them to the IT resources they need to do their jobs from a managed or trusted device. All from one platform without the hassle of stitching together a patchwork of tools.
JumpCloud made SSO much easier and more straightforward to implement. It’s very helpful both for usability and security. Now, we have all our applications in one place. When we log into JumpCloud, it’s easy to access all of our applications. Read More

One Platform to Manage All Devices
Manage and secure your entire fleet of Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android, iOS and iPadOS devices with JumpCloud. Apply granular policies, patch vulnerabilities, troubleshoot remotely, and enforce device trust access all from the same platform.
Jamf didn’t solve all my problems anyway because 25% of my fleet is non-macOS; Jamf is great for macOS, but it doesn’t help me with my Windows or Linux machines. JumpCloud gives me mobile device management for the entirety of my fleet and also lets me connect my legacy apps via LDAP, so it’s a really nice solution. It’s really elegant. Read More

Complete SaaS Management

When asked how concerned they are about shadow IT (applications or resources managed outside of IT), 84% of respondents replied they’re very (35%) or somewhat (49%) concerned Read More

JumpCloud Go™ Passwordless Authentication
JumpCloud Go™ provides the most secure and convenient way for users to access their JumpCloud-protected resources the moment they unlock their macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, iOS, or iPadOS devices. All with just a glance at their computer’s camera or by placing their finger down on the reader.
We’re using JumpCloud Go for multi-factor authentication (MFA), enforcing the policy for everyone. We’re also using it for single sign-on and password management. By having JumpCloud, we can keep our security one step ahead. With so many security threats out there these days, that’s a big deal. Read More

Zero-Trust Made Easy
Implement Zero-Trust controls to protect users, devices, applications, files, and networks from wherever your employees need to work. Add dynamic groups and conditional access policies, limit access only to trusted devices, enforce MFA authentication and more from a single platform.
We had Okta, Jamf, Active Directory, you name it. We were all over the place. JumpCloud gives me the cloud directory, it gives me SSO, and it gives me multi-factor authentication. It’s a nice solution for our environment because it does everything I need it to do. It gives me one place to look for all the things that we need to do on a day-to-day basis as an IT organization.

Identity Automation and Lifecycle Management
Full-scale and automated user identity lifecycle management, from day one. Automate and customize workflows like onboarding your new employees from your HRIS system, ensure the correct entitlements as they move to new roles, and successfully offboard them as they leave your organization to eliminate any risk of continued access.
I am able to onboard and offboard in what seems like minutes when it used to take days,” Servadei says. “All sections of the onboarding process are now tightly integrated. It saves so much time and energy. Read More

Comprehensive Security without the Complexity
JumpCloud is secure by default and makes it easy to protect your organization and maintain compliance. Secure your users, harden your devices, and deliver secure, frictionless access™ all from a unified platform.
Using zero-touch deployment, we mail new hires laptops, and they can turn on their machines, sign in with their JumpCloud credentials, automatically configure the computer with file vaults and screen settings and everything else that then ties into their Vanta for SOC 2 compliance. Then their SOC 2 compliance connects to JumpCloud to make sure the device is compliant. Read More

Freedom to Choose
Unlike other vendors that only work with their own vendor ecosystem, JumpCloud is an open directory platform that integrates with the IT resources you are using today, and those you will grow into tomorrow. Use all of JumpCloud, or add only the capabilities you need.
People that are Active Directory people and Windows people, they get stuck in that world, and it’s really difficult to get them out of that world. But typically what we would do is say, ‘Hey, let’s extend your existing Active Directory with JumpCloud because of these feature sets’. And then we start to list what they don’t have in their current environment and what JumpCloud will provide for them. Read More

Make Work Happen
JumpCloud makes it easy to deliver secure, frictionless access™ wherever your users work. Let your employees thrive wherever, however they work – in the office, on the road or remote, or both.
Our employees are spread out across the U.K. and the U.S., and we’re a hybrid business. We need to make sure everyone in the office or at a cafe up in Glasgow has the same experience getting into their devices and applications and being able to work wherever they are. JumpCloud absolutely helped there. Read More
