Summary

The text critiques the conventional approach of categorizing CIAM (Customer Identity and Access Management) providers into distinct categories, arguing that this method does not reflect the real purchasing journey of B2B SaaS companies. It emphasizes that the progression from basic login to advanced features like SSO, SCIM provisioning, audit logs, and role-based access control is a continuous path rather than separate markets. The text suggests that evaluating providers based on their ability to support a company's growth without requiring platform changes is more important than relying on traditional rankings. It highlights WorkOS as an example of a provider that offers a unified platform capable of supporting this growth trajectory by allowing companies to add features like SSO and SCIM without switching providers, thus providing a more practical and adaptable solution for scaling enterprises.
