Optimize Your JumpCloud Spend
Unused device licenses, over-purchased Premium tiers, and duplicate identity management subscriptions are draining your IT security budget.
Common JumpCloud Cost Issues
Device License Over-Purchasing
IT departments purchase JumpCloud licenses for all devices but many devices are rarely used or decommissioned, wasting $9-15/month per unused device license.
Tier Over-Purchasing
Companies purchase Enterprise tier for all users when Professional would suffice, paying $6/user/month extra unnecessarily.
Duplicate Identity Providers
Companies often have both JumpCloud and Azure AD/Okta, paying for duplicate identity management when one would suffice.
Inactive User Accounts
Former employees and contractors retain JumpCloud access long after leaving, consuming licenses and device quotas.

The JumpCloud Device License Waste
JumpCloud's per-user pricing includes device management, but companies often purchase licenses for all devices regardless of usage. Decommissioned devices, rarely-used laptops, and inactive accounts continue consuming licenses, leading to 20-30% waste. Additionally, tier over-purchasing (Enterprise vs. Professional) can add 40% to base costs.
