Now, IT decision-makers at organizations that had been using Centrify Express are looking for alternatives. In this article, we’ll lay out the important details behind Centrify ending support for their line of Express solutions, detailing what the changes mean for customers and when they are going into effect. We’ll also survey the alternatives to find the best options for migrating away from Centrify Express. What does the Centrify Express EOL mean?End-of-Life

For Centrify Express means that Centrify will no longer support this line of products. Customers of Centrify Express will find the products are no longer licensed and that they no longer receive security updates. Centrify will also cease providing support, troubleshooting, and hotfixes.The following parts of the Centrify Express portfolio will be impacted:Centrify Express for MacCentrify Express for Mac Smart CardCentrify Express for SaaS and MobileNote that it appears that Centrify Express for Linux will continue to be supported for the time being.When will the EOL take effect?Centrify For Mac Os XThe scheduled date for the EOL of Centrify Express is May 1st, 2019.

Idaptive will focus on IDaaS (i.e. web application single sign-on), and curiously have included some Mac management within this company. Centrify will continue to focus on PAM including Linux management. Both companies are owned by Thoma Bravo but they will operate separately.The short-term impact of this decision adds complexity for their customers. But Centrify is hoping that there are long-term benefits to a more distinct delineation between Centrify and Idaptive. Interestingly, Centrify’s primary competitor Okta is now including Advanced Server Access capabilities similar to SSH key management and privileged access management. So while it appears that Centrify is decentralizing, Okta is expanding their footprint within one organization.What are some alternatives to Centrify & Idaptive?There is no shortage of tools that provide aspects of the former Centrify Express.
