Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before it ends, access to these entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
This listing has one pricing dimension based on the number of users. You buy access in blocks of 1,000 users under a contract term. Pricing scales with your user count, so you add more user blocks as your needs grow. The product provides identity and access management, covering identity governance, access management, and runtime identity security controls across hybrid cloud. There are no separate tiers or add-on dimensions to choose from. You commit upfront for the covered users during the contract period.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one user for billing under the 1,000-user block?
Each user is a distinct identity managed by the platform. This includes human accounts and can extend to non-human identities the platform governs. The block covers 1,000 such identities. You count every unique identity that uses identity governance, access management, or runtime security controls.
What happens if I need to cover more than 1,000 users?
You add more user blocks to raise your covered count. Pricing scales with the number of blocks you purchase. Each block covers another 1,000 users under the contract. You commit to the covered users for the contract term rather than paying per actual login.
Is this billed on usage or as an upfront commitment?
This is a contract dimension, not usage-based. You commit upfront for a set number of user blocks over the contract term. Charges do not vary hour to hour or by login activity. Your bill reflects the user blocks you buy, regardless of daily usage swings.

Comprehensive APIs with Challenging Debugging
Reviewed on Sep 28, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate IBM Verify CIAM's comprehensive set of REST APIs and modern SDK support for various development environments. Implementing standard protocols like OIDC, OAuth 2.0, and SAML is highly structured, saving us significant development time. I like that we have complete control over the user experience by using REST APIs directly, allowing us to build bespoke registration forms, login flows, and user dashboards without users noticing they are interacting with a third-party security platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
Debugging specific error tokens during custom login flow implementations can be challenging due to occasionally vague error messages in the developer logs. The API documentation, while extensive, sometimes takes time to sort through to find exact edge-case solutions. Additionally, feedback suggests that configuration complexity and dashboard usability are common areas for improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
IBM Verify CIAM removes the burden of creating a compliant user authentication system from scratch, letting us focus on core features instead of security compliance.
