### Hire2Retire

RoboMQ’s Hire2Retire is an Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) solution designed to manage the complete workforce lifecycle, encompassing joiners, movers, and leavers (JML) events such as hiring, role changes, department transfers, terminations, and long-term leaves. This solution effectively bridges the gap between HR systems and IT infrastructure by synchronizing identity data with platforms like Active Directory (AD), Entra ID, Okta, and Google Workspace. By ensuring that user access and privileges are consistently aligned with their roles within the organization, Hire2Retire enhances overall operational efficiency. Targeted primarily at mid to large, fast-growing organizations, Hire2Retire addresses the challenges associated with manual and fragmented lifecycle management processes. Traditional methods of onboarding and offboarding can be slow, error-prone, and resource-intensive, often leading to security vulnerabilities, compliance risks, and diminished employee experiences. By automating these processes, Hire2Retire not only streamlines operations but also significantly reduces operational overhead, allowing organizations to focus on more strategic initiatives. One of the standout features of Hire2Retire is its extensive integration capabilities. With connections to 27 HR and Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), major identity providers, and over 10 leading service management platforms such as ServiceNow, Salesforce, SolarWinds, and FreshService, the solution enables seamless identity orchestration. Its robust library of connectors allows for the automatic provisioning and deprovisioning of access to third-party applications based on profile-driven entitlements, making it a scalable and flexible IGA solution that adapts to the needs of modern enterprises. From a governance and security standpoint, Hire2Retire enforces role-based access control and continuously aligns user privileges with their job functions. This ensures that employees have the right level of access at all times, reducing the risk of over-provisioning. Additionally, timely deprovisioning during terminations or role changes helps prevent unauthorized access, protecting the organization from potential security breaches and reputational risks. Hire2Retire supports organizational compliance with key regulatory frameworks and standards including SOX, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and GDPR, providing complete audit trails for every identity lifecycle event.

### [Datawiza Identity Modernization](https://www.g2.com/products/datawiza-identity-modernization/reviews)

Datawiza Identity Modernization is an identity access management (IAM) and access security solution that enables organizations to add multi-factor authentication (MFA) and single sign-on (SSO) to legacy and modern web applications by integrating those applications with an identity provider or using a managed authentication service. It is designed for security, IAM, and infrastructure teams that need to modernize authentication for applications that rely on native logins, older protocols, or tightly coupled identity stacks. It is commonly used for internal enterprise applications and external-facing portals, including customer, partner, and supplier portals. Datawiza can enforce MFA using its own native MFA capability or by integrating with an upstream identity provider’s MFA and access policies. For SSO, it connects applications to modern identity platforms using standards-based federation (such as SAML and OIDC), including integrations with providers like Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Okta, Ping, Cisco Duo, and others. Datawiza can be deployed in customer-managed environments (for example, on-premises or cloud infrastructure) or delivered as a hosted service operated by Datawiza, similar to managed access services where customers consume the capability without running the full stack themselves. - MFA enablement and enforcement using Datawiza native MFA or identity-provider-driven MFA and policy controls - SSO integration for applications that do not natively support modern authentication, using standards-based federation - Application modernization coverage for legacy enterprise apps and custom web applications across multiple environments (dev/test/prod) - Flexible deployment models including containerized/on-prem options and a hosted service option - Operational visibility through authentication and access logging patterns that support monitoring, investigations, and compliance workflows

### [Identum](https://www.g2.com/products/identum/reviews)

Your IAM works today. Nobody's quite sure how, or for how long. Usually one person understands the scripts holding it together. When that person leaves, retires, or gets sick, the system becomes a risk. We call it the Erik Effect, and it's the real reason most public sector IT teams switch to Identum. Identum is identity and access management built for organisations that don't have a dedicated IAM team. Joiner, mover, and leaver flows trigger from your HR system. Accounts open, change, and close without anyone writing a script. Access reviews run on a schedule, not when an auditor knocks. Identum tracks Microsoft license usage and downgrades unused seats automatically. The whole thing runs through a no-code interface, which means the person owning your IAM today is the person changing your onboarding template tomorrow. Not a vendor. Not a consultant. 214 municipalities across the Nordics run on Identum today. VarIT, a collaboration between five Norwegian municipalities, cut their IAM consulting bill by 80 percent after switching. Bjørnafjorden kommune automatically downgraded 7.66 percent of its Microsoft licenses based on actual non-use, saving 672,000 NOK a year. Indre Østfold provisioned 5,200 employees through a single HR integration in under three weeks. We're built for the IT director European municipality, the IT lead at a regional authority, or the systems owner at a 500-5000 person company. In each case, the IAM owner has three other systems to run. If you're a 50,000-employee multinational with a dedicated IAM team running on-premise hardware, SailPoint or NetIQ are better fits. We won't pretend otherwise. For everyone else, the typical path is eight to twelve weeks from signed contract to first automated lifecycle flow. After that, you own it. No coding, no consultants on retainer, no waiting on a vendor to change your offboarding template. Identum is part of the Visma Group. Data lives where you want it. Security operations follow the Visma Cloud Delivery Model. NIS2 and Cybersäkerhetslagen alignment is part of the platform design, not a feature added on later.

### [Linx Security](https://www.g2.com/products/linx-security/reviews)

Linx Security is a modern identity governance and access management platform built for modern enterprises. We help organizations stay governed, meet compliance, and prevent identity-based breaches by giving security teams deep visibility and precise control over who has access to what, across every application, environment, and identity type - human or non-human.

Our platform unifies identity security and access governance in one intuitive solution, enabling enterprises to automate access requests, approvals, certifications, and least privilege enforcement at scale. With Linx, you can: Discover and monitor all identities, including service accounts and shadow admins. Automate access reviews and entitlement workflows with context-rich intelligence.

We integrate seamlessly with your existing stack—Okta, Azure AD, AWS, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Workday, and more - so you can get started in days, not months. Because attackers don’t break in anymore, they log in. And Linx makes sure only the right people - and only the right machines - can.

### [P0 Security](https://www.g2.com/products/p0-security/reviews)

P0 Security is the next-generation Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform that secures privileged access for every identity—human, machine and agentic—across cloud and hybrid environments. Production access is broken. Enterprises are drowning in break-glass accounts, static tokens, and over-privileged roles, with no clear view of who—or what—actually has access. Legacy tools like PAM, IGA and CIEM were built for a static, perimeter-driven world. They create blind spots, create extra work for security teams who have to manage proxies, bastions, shared accounts and static credentials. P0 was built differently. We unify visibility, governance, and orchestration into one platform. At the foundation is Access DNA—a continuously updated inventory of all human, non-human, and AI identities, their entitlements, and effective permissions across hybrid and cloud environments. On top of that, our Identity Graph maps relationships, reveals risky pivots, and surfaces toxic privilege combinations. And through API-led orchestration, P0 enforces policies natively in every system—without proxies, vaults, or static credentials. The result: \* Privileged resources clearly identified \* No standing privileged access \* All access ephemeral, granted just-in-time, and fully auditable With P0, organizations finally have a clear path from today’s chaotic baseline to zero standing privilege—reducing risk, streamlining compliance, and enabling developer velocity.

Researched and written by [Brandon Summers-Miller](https://research.g2.com/insights/author/brandon-summers-miller)

Updated July 28, 2025

Identity and access management (IAM) software helps companies protect their systems from unauthorized access or misuse by only allowing authenticated, authorized users (typically employees, based on job roles) to access specific, protected company systems and data. IT administrators leverage the software to quickly provision, deprovision, and change user identities and the corresponding user access rights at scale.

IAM software authenticates users, provides access to systems and data based on company policies, tracks user activity, and provides reporting tools to ensure employees are in compliance with company policies and regulations. Many IAM solutions include single sign-on (SSO) and password manager features. For employees, once users authenticate by signing into their accounts or using other multi-factor authentication methods, they are granted limited access to company systems allowed by their user type to complete their typical job functions.

Additionally, many IAM products are now being integrated with generative artificial intelligence (AI) features. These AI features allow IAM products to automate routine tasks that can be cumbersome for IT and InfoSec teams while predicting identity-related misconfigurations and recommending various access controls.

IAM software differs from [privileged access management (PAM) software](https://www.g2.com/categories/privileged-access-management-pam). IAM software is used to authorize, authenticate, and grant specific access to everyday users, such as company employees. However, PAM software is used to provide administrative or superusers with granular access to business-critical assets and privileged credentials. IAM software also differs from [customer identity and access management (CIAM) software](https://www.g2.com/categories/customer-identity-and-access-management-ciam), which provides a company’s customers, as opposed to employees, with secured access to customer applications.

To qualify for inclusion in the Identity and Access Management (IAM) category, a product must:

- Provision and deprovision user identities
- Assign access based on individual role, group membership, and other factors
- Enforce user access rights based on permissions
- Verify user identity with authentication, which may include multi-factor authentication methods
- Integrate with directories that house employee data
