IGA Market Leader Tools4ever Celebrates 20th Anniversary

Tools4ever, the market leader in Identity Governance & Administration, marks its twentieth anniversary in 2019. This milestone is being celebrated with events for customers, employees, and partners in various countries.

Over twenty years, the company has evolved from a small software firm to a leading service provider in Identity Management.

From Pioneer to Market Leader

Jacques Vriens, founder of Tools4ever: We strive not to do a lot of things ‘somewhat well’, but to truly excel in one subject. Our sharp focus is the core of our success over the past twenty years and has led to successful solutions and long-term customer relationships. And to a top team, because thanks to this approach, the best professionals in the field choose us. We are a driven organization with a can-do mentality where they can work with pleasure and have a lot of space and freedom. Co-founder Tjeerd Seinen: Customers praise the user-friendliness, the easy deployment and integration, and the excellent support.

Tools4ever develops and delivers a comprehensive Identity Governance & Administration portfolio. It combines advanced technology for Password Management and Single Sign-On with functionalities such as User Provisioning, Downstream Provisioning, Workflow Management, Service Automation, and Access Governance. Tools4ever’s solutions now manage more than 10 million accounts for both smaller companies (300 accounts) and multinationals with over 200,000 users.

Ready for the Future

Tools4ever is well-prepared for the coming years. Rapid digitalization and growing societal concern for privacy and data protection (GDPR) are boosting interest in Tools4ever’s products and services. The portfolio has been effectively modernized with the Identity Management system in the cloud (IDaaS, Identity as a Service). Tools4ever has adopted a cloud-first strategy early on. Our very successful HelloID service is proof of this, finds Tjeerd Seinen. Together with our cloud partner Microsoft, we offer a very reliable and high-performance Identity & Access Management service. It’s a milestone on the way to a fully cloud-based portfolio.

2019, Anniversary Year for Tools4ever

In 2019, Tools4ever is dedicating extensive attention to its 20th anniversary. A large event for customers and partners is being prepared for November, and something is naturally being organized for employees as well. The anniversary program will be launched soon.
