Our take

With thousands of companies across the globe moving to a ‘work anywhere’ model, the secure remote access market is booming. JumpCloud provides an open directory platform for simple, secure and frictionless access to corporate technology resources from any device or location. The cloud-native directory acts like a conduit, connecting companies and their workers with all the IT resources needed to do their jobs without compromising security.

It offers a subscription-based model with a variety of packages that can be customized depending on the needs of the client. The company has also has a new app that helps enterprise IT departments with multi-factor authentication, keeping it simple with an accept or deny functionality. It's a smart move considering the world is becoming more mobile-driven.

While the company had concerns over economic uncertainty, it doesn't seem to be affected whatsoever. Given its recent acquisition of Stack Identity and the launch of its Partner Program, JumpCloud is in an exciting position for continued growth.
