FAQs


Zluri is primarily a SaaS Management Platform (SMP) with some added identity governance features. In the SMP category, its main alternatives are other SaaS management tools like Zilla Security. For more robust identity and access management (IAM), organizations often evaluate identity providers like Okta and Microsoft Entra ID, but their IGA modules are add-ons. For enterprise-grade access governance, the main alternatives are modern platforms like ConductorOne or legacy vendors like SailPoint, which are built for deep compliance management rather than just managing SaaS applications.


Zluri is a powerful tool for discovering shadow IT and analyzing the cost of your SaaS apps from a financial perspective. However, its identity governance functions are secondary and often rely on24-hour data refreshes. ConductorOne is a purpose-built identity security platform that provides complete visibility and deep, real-time access governance. This allows you to optimize spend while meeting strict compliance requirements for SOC 2, GDPR, or HIPAA with audit-ready compliance reporting.


ConductorOne is a single platform built for all end users, not just admins. Users can request access rights directly in Slack or Teams with automated notifications, and managers can approve from there. Our access certification campaigns are simple and risk-based, not a data dump from a complex dashboard. This user-friendly approach helps organizations achieve least privilege, manage privileged access, and stay audit-ready by governing deep entitlements, not just top-level user accounts.


Your SSO (single sign-on) provider is essential for authentication and MFA, but it doesn’t govern what users can do inside apps. ConductorOne provides deep access control, allowing you to enforce role-based access control (RBAC) policies, analyze complex access patterns, and automate SoD (Segregation of Duties) reviews, which are critical security use cases that go far beyond basic authentication.


ConductorOne is an AI-native platform built for real-time data and scalability. This allows us to provide intelligent insights for decision-making during access reviews. For example, our AI agents can recommend revoking access based on inactivity, making the process faster and more effective.


The price of a SaaS management tool like Zluri is based on saving money on licenses. The value of ConductorOne is based on achieving critical security outcomes—reducing breach risk, automating compliance, and securing your entire hybrid environment. We provide a security-focused ROI, not just license optimization.


ConductorOne is built to manage the entire lifecycle management process across your full technical ecosystem, not just cloud-based apps. It provides deep, bi-directional integrations for both modern cloud environments (like Azure) and critical on-premises systems, including Microsoft Active Directory. This allows you to automate provisioning and deprovisioning in real-time, everywhere, from a single platform.
