Mid-sized organizations today face growing challenges in securing identities and controlling access to SaaS tools. Unlike enterprises with dedicated security teams and multimillion-dollar IT budgets, mid-sized businesses often struggle with fragmented Identity & Access Management (IAM).

The problem mid-sized companies face

Traditional IAM solutions such as Okta or Microsoft Entra ID cover only part of the software stack. They depend on structured integrations (SCIM APIs, SAML SSO), which many applications don’t support, or only offer on high-priced enterprise tiers.

This results in:

  • Limited coverage and blind spots across the SaaS stack.
  • Complex, lengthy rollouts that demand heavy IT resources.
  • High total cost of ownership, with companies forced into enterprise licenses just to secure access.

The outcome is incomplete security, unmanaged Shadow IT, cumbersome onboarding/offboarding, and wasted spend on unused licenses.

StackBob’s solution

StackBob addresses this problem with an agent-based IAM platform that works across 300,000+ SaaS and cloud tools without requiring SSO or API integrations. Businesses can achieve:

  • Full visibility and control across the entire stack.
  • Automated identity lifecycle management to reduce risk.
  • Faster onboarding and offboarding, without error-prone spreadsheets or ticketing.
  • Lower costs, eliminating the need for enterprise-tier upgrades.

Google backs the mission

StackBob’s mission to make modern IAM accessible to every organization is now supported by Google for Startups program. This backing will help StackBob accelerate its vision of delivering simple, affordable, and complete identity security for mid-sized businesses worldwide.
