About Okta
Okta is an identity platform that controls how people and software access company apps. It has separate products for workforce identity, customer identity and AI agents.
What it does
Okta manages sign-in, single sign-on and access rules across an organization's apps. Its workforce products cover employees and non-human accounts, while its customer identity products handle logins for end-user apps. Identity governance tools help teams review who has access to what.
Key features
- Single sign-on for employee and partner apps
- Multi-factor authentication and passwordless login
- Customer identity for consumer and B2B apps
- Identity governance and access reviews
- Access controls for AI agents
Who it's for
Okta is aimed at large companies, public-sector bodies and global brands that need strict access control and many integrations. Security and IT teams are the main users, although product teams building customer logins also use it.
Pricing and good to know
The site offers a 30-day free trial of its product capabilities. Paid plans are arranged through the sales team, so enterprise terms come from a sales conversation. Identity projects take planning time, so a trial is a good way to test the fit before a wider rollout.
