Rippling SSO

Bundled with Rippling HRIS, default for Rippling-committed SMBs.

By Rippling People Center, Inc. · Founded 2016 · San Francisco, CA · private

Rippling SSO is bundled with Rippling HRIS (covered separately in our [Top 10 HRIS](/top-10-hris-software) ranking) and Rippling Payroll (in our [Top 10 Payroll Software](/top-10-payroll-software) ranking). The product's primary advantage: unified employee + identity lifecycle (employee onboarding in HRIS automatically provisions SSO + apps), making it the default for Rippling-committed SMBs (10-500 employees). Trade-offs: outside the Rippling ecosystem the product is significantly weaker, integration ecosystem narrower than Okta (~600), and standalone use case rare.

Vendor Trust is scored independently of product quality. A great product from an unfair vendor still earns a low trust score.
