Connecting to Distributor and Supplier Identities
Share information with suppliers and distributors while they manage their own identities
The challenge
Leveling the identity playing field
Global enterprises must collaborate with other organizations, not only to innovate and reach new markets, but to survive. Yet, as businesses reinvent their relationships and processes, they aren’t updating or managing technology at the same pace.
When it comes to accessing your information and tools, partners can have very different requirements. Some will want to federate into your apps through an identity provider. Others will have standing Active Directory credentials to integrate. Still others will want to apply multi-factor authentication policies to regulate access. You want to support the diversity—and do it efficiently.
Okta lets your partners manage access to resources on their own terms.

Okta helps Esri achieve global collaboration
We wanted a truly global collaboration system that let every person participate as themselves. We started by using Okta to get one federated source of identity for all of our distributors and for ourselves. And then we connected that Okta solution to our on-premise SharePoint environment.
