Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“Okta and Microsoft Entra ID are the top choices due to their scalability, security, and broad integration capabilities” Mistral Small · Document processing · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Evaluate your IdP first: Check if Okta or Microsoft Entra's native governance tools can meet 80% of your needs.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · IGA · scale prompt · first choice
“Okta offers a unified platform for all identities, ideal for organizations wanting a single system.” Mistral Small · NHI management · comparative prompt · alternative
“Best if you already rely heavily on Okta for enterprise customers / workforce identity: Okta” GPT-5.4 mini · CIAM · direct prompt · alternative
Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“many models advise small businesses to be cautious or avoid Okta for customer identity use cases due to complexity and cost” Mistral Small · CIAM · negative prompt · hard negative
“Okta, despite its security track record, remains widely used and has strong functionality — but if you're in a high-security or regulated industry, its breach history should give you serious pause.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · CIAM · negative prompt · soft negative
“The established vendors (CyberArk, Microsoft, Saviynt) offer broader integration with your existing IAM stack but may be less purpose-built for the NHI challenge.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · NHI management · scale prompt · soft negative
“Potential Drawback: The platform is incredibly complex. A mid-market company likely doesn’t need (and cannot afford) a full enterprise architecture firm” Qwen 3.7 Flash · CIAM · direct prompt · soft negative
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 123 of the 142 answers that named Okta and are not a share of its labels.
367 of the 367 domain citations in answers naming Okta came from somebody else's page.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read September 28, 2026; AI search demand is its modeled, directional estimate, not a count of queries to any assistant. The answers are this edition's. Two measurements side by side: neither is read as the cause of the other.

Every page okta.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person.

What Okta's own pages state, read September 28, 2026: okta.com, okta.com/pricing, okta.com/en-ca/security, okta.com/solutions, okta.com/customers. A claimed page can correct any of them.
Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Okta's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Okta, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for Okta by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
