Open Cloud Directory for Any OS
Is Microsoft’s ecosystem standing in the way of your progress? Try a cloud directory that works with, not against, the diverse apps and systems in your IT environment. Manage identities, access, and devices from JumpCloud’s vendor-neutral platform.
Access Any IT Resource — From Anywhere
JumpCloud supports your environment whether you manage resources in the Azure cloud, including M365 and Azure AD, or on-prem, including legacy Active Directory. Use SAML SSO, SCIM, LDAP, and RADIUS to grant users access to resources — even when they’re hybrid or remote — and add MFA to devices, apps, and VPNs to keep identities secure.
Support Your Diverse IT Environment
Does it ever feel like your directory and identity management tools are butting heads with the applications and systems your users need to get work done? With JumpCloud, you can securely manage access to Microsoft, Azure AD, & Active Directory-based resources, along with everything else you care about like Google Workspace, macOS, Linux, Zoom, Slack, and thousands of other apps. No confusing add-on pricing required.
Azure AD Isn’t AD in the Cloud
Active Directory and Azure AD don’t speak the same language. Use JumpCloud’s open cloud directory as a single source of truth for identity management without the need for complicated integrations. Let JumpCloud work with your existing directory tooling to cut back on the number of point solutions in your stack and reduce IT complexity.

IT Admins on G2 Crowd Agree
JumpCloud is the easiest to use and highest rated cloud directory on G2.
Best directory service in a long time! Security has been an issue with Active Directory as being on a hybrid system with AD and Azure, it's caused more issues with authentication, password resets and implementing 2FA. JumpCloud speaks to each computer every minute, if I have a computer stolen or hacked, I can have the access disabled in minutes and with a few clicks, what a time saver.
Great for managing a hybrid envrionment! We switched ESP's this year and with jumpcloud we're able to manage a G Suite directory and Azure AD in one place. That's a really cool benefit during employee onboardings and offboardings.
Active Directory handles windows devices just fine but not so much for mac devices. I am able to manage window users and devices with AD and mac users/devices with JumpCloud. Consolidating my windows directory of users/devices into JC is a long term option as well that looks promising.
