Celebrating excellence: Announcing SailPoint’s 2025 Partner of the Year award winners

At SailPoint, we often say that identity security is the foundation of the modern enterprise. But a foundation is only as strong as the experts who help build and maintain it. Today, I am incredibly proud to announce our 2025 Partner of the Year Award winners.

Our partner ecosystem is not just an extension of our sales team. It is critical to SailPoint’s success and, more importantly, the success of our customers. As organizations grapple with the increasing complexity of non-human identities, the integration of AI, and the need for global scale, our partners provide the industry expertise and technical depth that differentiate SailPoint in the market.

Whether it’s driving rapid migrations or providing high-touch managed services, these winners have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to excellence. Please join me in celebrating our 2025 winners.
