Akku (Cloud Access Security Broker) vs YeshID Onboard Comparison: Everything You Need to Know Before Choosing

YeshID is an identity management tool designed for small and growing businesses that need to control who has access to which applications without investing in a complex enterprise identity platform. Founded by people with long experience in identity and security, the company targets a gap that many organisations experience: employee onboarding and offboarding are handled with informal checklists and spreadsheets, access to software is granted inconsistently, and departing staff sometimes retain access long after they leave. YeshID provides a simple, structured way to manage these processes, schedule onboarding and offboarding tasks, and track the provisioning and deprovisioning of accounts across the organisation's software stack, often building on Google Workspace as a foundation. Administrators can create onboarding templates that define which accounts and permissions a new starter should receive, schedule tasks ahead of a start date and assign responsibilities to IT staff or application owners. Offboarding workflows ensure that access is revoked promptly and consistently, with records showing what was removed and when. Application discovery features help identify the software in use across the company, including tools adopted outside formal procurement, giving visibility into shadow IT. Access tracking and periodic review capabilities support audits and compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, providing evidence of access controls. Integration with Google Workspace and, increasingly, other identity sources and applications allows actions to be automated where connectors exist, while manual tasks can still be tracked for applications without direct integration. An employee request process allows staff to ask for access through a controlled channel. YeshID is aimed at start-ups and small to mid-sized businesses, often without a dedicated identity team, where operations, IT or security staff handle access administration alongside other responsibilities.
