Quick answer
What is ForgeRock?
Short answer
ForgeRock historically offered a modular identity platform including ForgeRock Access Management (AM), Identity Management (IDM), Directory Services (DS), and the ForgeRock Identity Cloud SaaS. Following the 2023 acquisition by Thoma Bravo, ForgeRock is being consolidated into the Ping Identity portfolio. New buyers should evaluate the combined Ping product line; existing ForgeRock customers should engage Ping account teams on the consolidation roadmap.
