JumpCloud

JumpCloud is a cloud-based IT management platform that gives administrators centralized control over user identities, device access, and security policies. It provides a unified dashboard where IT teams can manage Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android devices, enforce security compliance, and control access to applications and network resources. The platform eliminates the need for multiple disjointed tools by combining device management, directory services, single sign-on, and multi-factor authentication in one system.

What sets JumpCloud apart is its cross-platform approach and emphasis on automation. The platform can remotely deploy policies, patch systems, and manage user access across diverse environments. It recently expanded to handle agentic identities—non-human entities like AI assistants and automated processes that require secure access to company resources. This makes it particularly relevant for organizations adopting AI tools while maintaining security governance.

IT administrators and managed service providers benefit most from JumpCloud, especially those supporting hybrid work environments with diverse device types. Organizations use it to streamline employee onboarding/offboarding, maintain security compliance across devices, and provide seamless access to company resources without complex on-premise infrastructure. The platform serves over 250,000 organizations globally, including companies like Canva and Coreweave, who need scalable identity and device management.
