When we were looking for an identity management platform, we tried a lot of big companies. Of which some were too expensive, and some were not feature-rich enough. We needed something that was as powerful as it was cost-effective. That’s when we found LoginRadius, and it was kind of exactly that right fit—easy to use, feature-rich, and had reasonable pricing.
