Our take
PingIdentity is a platform, delivered through both cloud services and on-premises software, that is used to provide a comprehensive Identity and Access Management service. In today’s highly connected digital world, digital identity management services — the process of identifying and authenticating users on networks to access services — has become a key aspect of interacting on the internet.
The digital identity market is worth approximately $30 billion today but growing at upwards of 18.5% and potentially as big as $100 billion by 2024, according to the latest forecasts. Consequently, competition is heavy for PingIdentity, with some other strong players in the various branches of identity management including Okta, LastPass, and Duo Security. The merger between PingIdentity and ForgeRock went some way to consolidating a firm rooting in the industry for both companies.
The now combined, PingIdentity and Forgerock have successfully attracted considerable funding and serve hundreds of brands, including Morningstar, Vodafone, and GEICO as well as governments like Norway, Canada, and Belgium. Alongside this, both companies were acquired by the leading software investment firm, Thoma Bravo in 2022 before the merger. This acquisition offered a unique opportunity for PingIdentity to further grow and marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the combined company and its customers.
