1. Introduction
JumpCloud is a cloud-based directory platform that helps organizations manage user identities, devices, and access to IT resources, such as networks, applications, and systems. It centralizes authentication, making it easy for IT teams to securely control access across different environments, whether in the cloud or on-premises, without needing traditional on-site servers like Active Directory (AD).
The JumpCloud and Engagedly integration allows employees to use their JumpCloud credentials to access Engagedly, providing a seamless and secure single sign-on (SSO) experience. IT teams can efficiently manage user access and permissions, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive data. By centralizing identity management, organizations can improve security, reduce administrative overhead, and offer a smoother user experience across platforms.

Admins can seamlessly integrate JumpCloud with Engagedly, which enhances security and simplifies identity management for organizations.
Note: Only admins can integrate.
