Goldman Sachs Communicopia + Technology Conference 2025 summary
10 Sep, 2025Core competencies and innovation
Differentiation lies in managing identities both deep (detailed controls) and wide (across all systems), handling 125 million identities and growing rapidly.
Innovation is focused on extending identity management to all identities, including non-human (machines, agents) as these become new attack vectors.
Security challenges are increasing as agents and machine identities proliferate, requiring mapping and control at scale.
The convergence of identity and security ecosystems is seen as essential for comprehensive enterprise protection.
New product launches are planned, including an agentic identity security product in the coming weeks.
Customer adoption and market trends
Customers are cautiously piloting agent technologies, with more excitement for bespoke internal solutions but concerns about security and control.
Hesitation in agent adoption is driven by stories of data exposure and the need for reliable controls before scaling.
The next few quarters are expected to see increased adoption as confidence in controls grows and business benefits become clearer.
Orphan accounts and responsibility for non-human identities are emerging as major challenges for enterprises.
Customers are increasingly seeking comprehensive identity and data management to address these new risks.
Financial performance and business model
SaaS ARR growth is strong, now representing 60-70% of revenue, with high-30s growth rates.
ARR is emphasized as the best metric to track performance, smoothing out term/SaaS deal volatility.
Recent results do not yet reflect revenue from new agentic or machine identity products, indicating future growth potential.
Bundling and suite-based pricing are being used, with a focus on not overburdening customers and allowing incremental adoption.
Net revenue retention remains strong at 114%, with high gross retention rates and a balanced mix of new and existing customer growth.
