OneLogin vs. Okta: Which IAM Solution Is Better?

OneLogin and Okta are two industry-leading identity and access management platforms used to secure user access to corporate resources and manage information about user identity.
OneLogin and Okta are enterprise-grade IAM platforms offering security products that customers can mix-and-match to create a customized solution.
OneLogin offers two bundled plans as well as a la carte pricing.
OneLogin's Advanced plan includes SSO, advanced directory synchronization and MFA for $4 per user per month.
Feature comparison: OneLogin vs. Okta Single Sign-On. Both OneLogin and Okta offer SSO for on-premises and cloud-based applications, as well as endpoint devices like laptops and mobile phones.
OneLogin and Okta both have MFA products for enterprise applications, endpoint devices and the cloud.
OneLogin's basic MFA integrates with biometric authenticators for added protection, whereas Okta offers this functionality as a separate product.
OneLogin also offers adaptive MFA with machine learning risk analysis, but it's an additional $5/user/month.
Both OneLogin and Okta offer directory synchronization products that pull in identity and policy information from Active Directory and other sources, providing a centralized control panel to simplify management across the enterprise.
OneLogin's product is called Advanced Directory, and Okta's is Universal Directory.
OneLogin and Okta both provide identity lifecycle management services that allow you to automatically provision, change and de-provision accounts.
OneLogin has a tool called OneLogin Sandbox that provides a safe staging environment for you to test new IAM features and configurations before deploying them to production.
Both OneLogin and Okta offer UEBA technology that uses artificial intelligence to analyze account behavior on the network to identify anomalies and threats.
OneLogin's Vigilance AI™ Threat Engine is built into their SmartFactor Authentication product; Okta expects their Identity Threat Protection with Okta AI product to be available in Early Access in the first half of 2024.
OneLogin offers multiple avenues for no-code workflow automation: its identity lifecycle management and HR-driven identity products come with built-in automation capabilities, while its Smart Hooks feature allows you to build custom workflows and integrations via APIs.
OneLogin does not offer API access management functionality.
More cloud security coverage OneLogin pros and cons Pros of OneLogin Cons of OneLogin.
I began my comparison of these two products by thoroughly reviewing the OneLogin and Okta websites to gain a basic understanding of the capabilities and features offered.
OneLogin and Okta both deliver advanced identity and access management capabilities for enterprises.
Their individual products have similar pricing, but OneLogin offers bundles and no annual minimums, making it a better option for companies that don't anticipate spending more than $1,500 per year on their IAM platform.
