Headline rates
| Vendor | Cheapest published rate | Pricing model |
|---|---|---|
| JumpCloud | $3/user/mo (SSO module) | A la carte modules or bundled packages. Annual billing required for advertised rates. |
| Okta Workforce Identity | $6/user/mo (Starter) | Per-user tiered bundles. $1,500/yr annual minimum across all tiers. |
Worked example
Acme Engineering Co. (illustrative example, not a real company) has 300 employees and a single SAML SSO requirement. Annual cost at list price:
- JumpCloud: SSO module at $3/user/mo. 300 seats x 12 = $10,800/yr.
- Okta Workforce Identity: Starter at $6/user/mo. 300 seats x 12 = $21,600/yr.
Numbers reflect list rates at 300 seats. Negotiated rates, bundled discounts, and per-MAU billing for CIAM products will all materially change the actual invoice.
Hidden cost differences
JumpCloud
- Monthly billing carries a roughly 25 percent uplift over the published annual rate.
- Platform Prime is now quote only - no public price for the top bundle.
- Device management seats are billed even for devices that share a single user account.
Okta Workforce Identity
- $1,500/yr annual minimum on every tier - below 21 seats you pay the floor regardless.
- Adaptive MFA, Identity Governance, and Identity Threat Protection are paid add-ons on top of Workforce Identity.
- Implementation typically requires a partner engagement for any team beyond a single-app SSO rollout.
