Sovrn<\/a> provides products and services to thousands of online publishers to help them understand, operate, and grow their businesses. Sovrn is headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, with offices in New York, and London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With thousands of customers deploying advertising, affiliate marketing, and data products on more than 80,000 websites, Sovrn reaches 500 million active consumers across more than 40 billion page views every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Needing to manage endpoints & identities at scale<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As the IT manager for Sovrn, Justen Starbuck is in charge of managing corporate device endpoints, internal network infrastructure, and identities through SAML authentication. To ensure Sovrn continues to operate with agility, Starbuck is always looking to streamline IT operations and make life easier for end users. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cScalability is our biggest goal,\u201d Starbuck says. \u201cWe need to be nimble and flexible with volume, scaling up and down effectively and efficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expanding the already-existing JumpCloud footprint<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a former customer success manager at JumpCloud, Starbuck was thrilled to learn that Sovrn was already using JumpCloud when he came on board in June 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been with JumpCloud since the very beginning,\u201d Starbuck explains. \u201cSince I\u2019ve been here, we\u2019ve been a very early adopter of pretty much every single JumpCloud product that\u2019s come to market. We love to be on the cutting edge with JumpCloud, and we\u2019ve been very successful with 99% of what JumpCloud has to offer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making life easier for everyone via a single pane of glass <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a former JumpCloud employee, Starbuck readily admits that he may be a bit biased. Even so, he can\u2019t imagine managing IT without JumpCloud \u2014 and feels for those who do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starbuck continues: \u201cJumpCloud gives you everything you need to manage devices and identities, and you can see everything through one pane of glass, with full autonomy over everything. \u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improved end-user experiences & increased IT productivity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Starbuck is particularly impressed with JumpCloud Go<\/a>, which enables secure passwordless authentication to JumpCloud-protected web resources on managed devices, and Automated Device Enrollment<\/a> (ADE), which allows IT to automatically enroll devices to JumpCloud MDM<\/a> \u2014 both of which help him save a ton of time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJumpCloud Go is one of the most revolutionary things,\u201d Starbuck says. \u201cThe technical background of what it actually does is amazing. It reduces friction for end users and it makes my life headache-free.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ADE has also been a game-changer for Starbuck; previously, the company was using Jamf for mobile device management, and it took 40 minutes to enroll each machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJumpCloud ADE has made deployment for machines the most effortless thing I\u2019ve ever had to do,\u201d he says. \u201cI set it up three years ago, iterated very slightly, and it\u2019s something I can actually fully trust and never second-guess if it\u2019s going to work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, Starbuck gets a fully automated deployment within five minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a major reduction in your workload,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s going to win you over in a heartbeat.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Streamlining identity management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The fact that JumpCloud integrates with AWS IAM Identity Center<\/a> \u201cmakes life easier,\u201d Starbuck says. \u201cInstead of having to have a plethora of user groups within JumpCloud and assigning specific roles, we\u2019re able to hone in on that management once we have all of our permission sets correct on Identity Center and we automatically know that those users will have the right roles on the first go and not have to modify it.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sovrn uses Jira\u2019s service desk for ticketing and has created a whole workflow for temporarily elevating permissions through AWS and a script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAn end user will put in whatever account they\u2019re asking for, their role, and what team they\u2019re on, and that information going through JumpCloud APIs to find the JumpCloud ID then runs the script to say, \u2018Hey, Amazon, add them to the Identity Center group with those permissions temporarily,\u201d Starbuck explains. \u201cIt\u2019s just-in-time provisioning that reduces friction. In an emergency, end users don\u2019t have to wait for me to add them to a group.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Centralizing IT spend<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sovrn has taken advantage of the ability to procure JumpCloud through the AWS Marketplace where it gets other mission-critical apps, like Jira, Confluence, and Slack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the main reasons for that is to centralize spend and make it easier to track,\u201d Starbuck explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re considering a solution like JumpCloud, Starbuck suggests giving the platform a try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA big selling point is the way JumpCloud has been modeled; they are focused on users, not device count,\u201d Starbuck explains. \u201cOther platforms focus on device count. If you\u2019re concerned with multiple devices and hitting those limits, that\u2019s where JumpCloud is always going to be your winner.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any last words?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOverall, JumpCloud has reduced fatigue and friction for my team,\u201d Starbuck says. \u201cWe use literally almost every single feature set that JumpCloud has to offer, and I can\u2019t recommend it enough.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
