Simeio Receives Highest Score by Gartner in Traditional/Legacy Workforce IDaaS Use Case

ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwired - Oct 25, 2016) - Simeio Solutions, the leading provider of Managed Identity as a Service (IDaaS), announced today that it has received the highest score by Gartner, Inc. for the traditional/legacy workforce use case in its September 2016 report on Critical Capabilities for IDaaS, Worldwide.

Gartner evaluated 18 vendors' services on 11 critical capabilities and three common use cases: workforce to SaaS, business-to-consumer and traditional/legacy workforce. Simeio received the highest service score in the traditional/legacy workforce use case, which describes organizations that have a mix of legacy (i.e. non-web-architected) on-premise applications and cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications.

Simeio Solutions CEO Hemen Vimadalal explained, "In today's enterprise, the typical IAM infrastructure is a hodgepodge of systems from multiple vendors controlling access to a rapidly expanding array of disparate resources, from legacy systems and on-premise enterprise applications to cloud-based SaaS applications."

Vimadalal continued, "Simeio's IDaaS platform and managed identity services are optimized to simplify this complex use case. They enable us to manage, monitor and defend even the most complex environments, improving our clients' security and risk posture, increasing their business agility, and saving them money. We're pleased that Gartner has recognized Simeio in the IDaaS market."

Abhimanyu Yadav, Vice President of Product Management at Simeio Solutions, noted that, "Our identity bridge enables us to quickly and easily integrate with legacy, on-premise applications, while our identity virtualization provides a single, easy-to-use interface for administering IAM functionality regardless of the complexity of the underlying infrastructure. Combined with our unparalleled expertise in complex, multi-vendor IAM environments, this enables us to offer complete, end-to-end managed identity solutions backed by stringent service level agreements that no other vendor can match."
