Overview
waave is an identity and access management (IAM) solution developed by Razoon AG in Winterthur. Identities are kept in a central directory and provisioned automatically to connected systems such as Active Directory, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams, Domino and SAP. Joiner, mover and leaver processes can be triggered from HR systems such as SAP SuccessFactors or Workday, and access rights are assigned through role-based and attribute-based rules, with logging and auditing for compliance.
waave runs on Platform-as-a-Service components in Microsoft Azure and is installed in the customer’s own Azure tenant, where Razoon handles installation and updates. Where the data is stored therefore depends on the Azure region the customer uses. An agent on a Windows server provisions on-premises systems such as Active Directory or Exchange.
The software is sold together with Razoon’s IAM implementation and operations services, mainly to large organisations. No prices are published.

- OktaOkta, Inc. · USFocused on identity lifecycle and access rights in Microsoft-centred environments; no single sign-on or MFA service is described.
Foreign products with overlapping functionality. An alternative is not necessarily a one-to-one replacement.
