CA CloudMinder

Despite its name, CloudMinder is not really about cloud security but about identity and access management. Well known for its on-premise IAM capabilities, CA Technologies is expanding into offering a suite encompassing in-the-cloud, to-the-cloud and from-the-cloud use cases to allow access to internal and external resources for internal and external users.

CA Technologies has a worldwide presence and an active partner program. With a large installed base of enterprise customers for its on-premise products, CA has considerable opportunities for upselling its cloud services to its installed base.

CA Technologies targets large enterprise customers. 

CA Technologies has new IAM capabilities in the for-the-cloud arena, for access to cloud-based platforms such as Salesforce. It has a strong focus on the use of social identities for user convenience.

It has a suite of offerings covering many of the IAM bases, but it is new into pure cloud apps and many features are still in development. However, these should be filled out in the next 12-18 months, boosting its competitive position. 

CA Technologies offers expected enterprise levels of services and support for its products, with global 24x7x365 support if necessary, as well as classroom and web-based training.
