Frequently asked questions
Learn why customers choose SailPoint
What are the biggest advantages of the SailPoint Platform?
SailPoint delivers a single, unified platform for all identity types, with policy-aware governance, fine-grained entitlement control, and AI-driven automation that scales with enterprise complexity. Our multi-tenant SaaS architecture eliminates maintenance drag.
What systems and applications does SailPoint connect to?
SailPoint connects to hundreds of applications across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments via 250+ out-of-the-box connectors, with a flexible framework and community options to extend governance to virtually any system.
What AI capabilities does SailPoint offer for identity security?
SailPoint integrates advanced AI and machine learning to drive smarter, faster identity decisions. Some of these capabilities include:
Access Modeling – Recommends optimal roles by analyzing access patterns.
Access Recommendations – Uses peer group comparisons to guide approvals and reduce decision fatigue.
Identity Outliers – Detects abnormal access behavior with machine learning.
Role Insights & Mining – Accelerates role creation and refinement through intelligent clustering.
Certification & Request Suggestions – Streamlines governance by surfacing recommended actions during reviews.
SailPoint Harbor Pilot – An AI agent that helps you query identity data, build workflows, and uncover insights.
How does SailPoint handle non-human identities like AI agents, machine accounts, and others?
We extend the full power of our governance platform to all identities. Our purpose-built solutions for Agent Identity Security and Machine Identity Security provide discovery, lifecycle management, and entitlement governance for these critical assets.
Can SailPoint be used with other identity tools like Okta?
Yes. This is a common and powerful model. Many enterprises use platforms like Okta or Microsoft Entra for authentication (SSO/MFA) and use SailPoint as the authoritative engine for enterprise-wide identity governance.
What makes SailPoint better for compliance and audit?
Our platform was purpose-built for the most demanding compliance requirements. We deliver automated SoD enforcement, granular audit trails, and real-time policy controls across every system, not just those within a specific ecosystem.
How does your SaaS architecture differ from competitors?
We run a true versionless, multi-tenant SaaS platform. This is fundamentally different from single-tenant "cloud-hosted" solutions that still require disruptive, customer-managed upgrade cycles and introduce operational overhead.
How quickly can we realize value from the platform?
Our Accelerated Application Onboarding and AI-powered discovery and role mining tools enable you to achieve comprehensive visibility and govern new applications in a matter of days, not months, delivering immediate value to your program.
