  • Bundle prices cannot be used as standalone CIAM rates: Sales Execution and Digital Selling and Engagement require quotes and use different package metrics.

How the score is calculated

The score uses the category-specific buying dimensions below and their displayed weights.

This page is based on public product information, official sources, structured feature data, and AI assessment. It is not a hands-on lab test unless explicitly stated. Confidence percentages describe our research indicators, not the probability that a claim is true or a measured accuracy rate.

Why this confidence level
  • Evidence confidence uses source level and claim-to-source support; AI claim confidence is shown separately.
  • Required-field evidence status measures whether weighted required claims have evidence links; it does not mean every product behavior was independently verified.
  • 8 of 8 weighted claims have evidence links.
  • 3 A1 documentary official sources and 1 A2 official product sources are linked.
  • 1 independent review sources are retained, including 0 professional sources with an explicit hands-on method.
  • No weighted claim is past the review window.
  • No blocking evidence conflict was identified.
Customer authentication experience30%
87

Registration, login, password management, ID verification, passkeys, phone login, magic links, and one-time passwords cover the stated customer access workflows across web, mobile, and kiosks; buyers should validate the flow against their own channel and recovery requirements.

Customer auth policy security20%
85

Risk-based authentication can trigger adaptive multi-factor checks for suspicious activity, and the enhanced-security option adds AI/ML protection and a dashboard; buyers needing those additions must include the separately priced option in their offer.

Customer profile and identity control20%
82

Self-service profile management, preference controls, and delegated administration support customer data updates, while the supplied facts do not establish account-linking or identity-data-quality controls; buyers should verify those needs in their target implementation.

Consent and privacy readiness15%
76

B2C Core captures consent for one terms-of-service document and one privacy policy, while unlimited policies, preference management, and a seven-year audit vault require the separate consent option; buyers with broader consent operations should confirm its scope and price.

Scale and developer fit15%
82

REST APIs, webhooks, regional storage selection, site-group single sign-on, and described bidirectional integrations support implementation across the stated systems; buyers should validate performance and synchronization behavior on their own workload because those operating measures are not established here.
