## Cakewalk Reviews
  ### 1. Effortless UX, super valuable!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rogan S. | VP, Growth, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Cakewalk has a really nice, light-touch UX that allows your team to easily integrate and record their third-party apps as they use them. No need to review and record all of oyur apps in one go, just add them as you go and manage them easily in the central web app. The data is super powerful once you get people using it too! The team are also really friendly and helpful.
Update: also love the new admin reporting section!

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Hard to say - I think it's great. I am sure there will be lots of powerful new features to come as well!

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cakewalk allows us to easily track and manage what third-party apps we use as a team.

  ### 2. Efficient, Intuitive, and Reliable

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ewa B. | Head of HR, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2025

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

I've been using this tool for a few weeks now, and it's been a game-changer. The interface is clean and user-friendly, making it easy to get started without a steep learning curve. Performance is smooth, and all the features work exactly as advertised. On top of that the onboarding is very intuitive and the customer service is super helpful. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to streamline their workflow!

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

There is nothing I dislike about Cakewalk. I just look forward to some new features that will make it even better.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cakewalk addresses the challenge of keeping an up-to-date record of tools & software access. It streamlines and automates this process during both employee onboarding and offboarding. It also plays a key role in maintaining organization, which is especially valuable when pursuing or managing security or quality certifications.

  ### 3. Saves Internal IT tons of time on access requests!

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2025

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Cakewalk is a lightweight application that helps our IT team, but also our app owners, with all access requests. It also automates the assignment of users to access groups in Entra ID. Moving the requests to the app owners saves IT a ton of time, but also the app owners them selves, since they arn't in a constant back-and-forth with IT about user access.
We really like the simplicity of the tool and that it lives in our default communication tool, Slack.
If we have any questions or issues we can also reach out to their support through Slack, and we never have to wait long for a reply or fix.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

The current built-in policies are sufficiently editable for now. The 1 thing we miss (or would like to see) when compared to competitors is a more elaborate workflow builder.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It moves the access request from a combination of IT and app owners to just the app owners. It also creates a great overview of app governance.

  ### 4. Great product and customer support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sarah H. | Finance &amp; Operations Specialist, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 13, 2025

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Cakewalk has made our processes significantly more precise and efficient by automating our formerly manual access tracking and management. On- and offboardings are now much faster which also improved our operational security.

Their team is very supportive and offers practical advice to ensure we're getting the most out of the platform. 

We are also very happy with the initial implementation process. Thanks to the integrations with our HRIS and SSO provider, we are able to get Cakewalk up and running quickly.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

The recent launch of AI Agents for access provisioning is a very promising feature, and we are excited to see the number of supported apps for it continue to expand.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1. Improving data quality through integrations and automations.
2. Making employee on- and offboarding processes more efficient & faster.
3. Automating regular access rights reviews & compliance audits.

  ### 5. Easy. Super reliable. Love it.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Barney H. | Information Security Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Running infosec, Cakewalk is a game-changer for us. Before Cakewalk, we struggled with access control, it took up too much time and caused a major decrease in efficiency. Never thought managing access could actually be this easy… Product is super simple, easy to use, powerful and reliable. What really surprised me: not only does security like Cakewalk—our CFO/Finance team loves it too (cutting costs!). 

To add to all of this, their customer support is second to none, they will take feedback and really use it to enhance their product. I requested a feature as i noticed that you could not use cakewalk in split screen, I raised this with them and they implemented a solution within 2 weeks!

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

The fact that we didnt know about it for 5 years.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are ISO 27001 certified. Managing identity access was quite manual before we implemented Cakewalk: limited visibility into access, time-consuming reviews, and challenging offboardings (not to mention audit preparation). With Cakewalk, we handle all of this from one place, making my life easier (and employees actually like the system too!).

  ### 6. Great solution for Access Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2025

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

We have recently started using the solution and were impressed with the support and responsiveness during vendor evaluation as well as during implementation. We had the opportunity to test the solution for several days to really make sure it supports our use cases.

Onboard was really straightforward as we could connect directly to Google SSO and the browser extension works well. We have much more insights into employees' tool accesses now than before and can use Cakewalk as single source of truth.

As we are SOC2 and ISO audited, Cakewalk helps us in enhancing security and controlling who has access to which tool with an easy-to-use UX/UI and slack integration for requestors and approvers.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

We are missing an opportunity to track tool access via Apps that are not accessed via browser and don't have Google SSO enforced.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using Cakewalk for Tool Access Management across the entire company. It has streamlined operations and increased efficiency. It also improved data quality being the single source of truth.

  ### 7. Absolutely gamechanging for JML management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Hamish D. | Senior IT Systems Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Cakewalk is designed for the modern tech company - it integrates extremely well into Slack, and doesn't force users onto a platform they're not used to just for the sake of recording a user access request. I've been looking for a product like Cakewalk for many years, and after attempting to use a competitor for the past year and failing due to over-complexity it has been a breath of fresh air dealing with the fantastic team developing Cakewalk.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

The only downside about Cakewalk is that if you're looking for a SaaS management tool, this won't fit the bill for you as Cakewalk doesn't integrate into individual applications to grab user lists or automatically revoke or provision access. However, as a result of this, unlike many competitors Cakewalk is much easier and quicker to implement, and you won't need to spend 6-12 months setting up clunky processes which vary depending on the level of integration with the product.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cakewalk is solving JML and access management for us.

Our company used a spreadsheet to track user access and privileges for many years, however as we've grown it's became more and more unsuitable for our scale, while simultaneously becoming less and less accurate due to how SaaS ownership is spread throughout our business. We attempted to use a competitor to Cakewalk, however we quickly became bogged down in over-complexity and extremely poor support that failed to understand our requirements. 

In contrast, Cakewalk has been absolutely fantastic. The team there understand that many modern businesses today already have umpteen different platforms that employees need to memorise, and forcing staff to use yet another platform is not the answer. Instead, Cakewalk allows employees to request access to a service via Slack, and access requests are then sent onto whomever needs to action the request via a Slackbot. This allows almost the entire access request flow to be managed within Slack, with the exception of actually adding the user to the service. No more updating columns in spreadsheets!

Cakewalk also helps us track and reduce shadow IT by using their Chrome browser extension, which logs when users log into sites they haven't been recorded as having access to, and then asking them if this needs to be recorded - this works even if the site hasn't been previously tracked in Cakewalk.

The team at Cakewalk have been enormously helpful while we've been getting set up, and it's always a great feeling when you know you're speaking to someone there who cares about the product and the experience for users.

  ### 8. Good Tool!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aengus O. | InfoSec Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 27, 2025

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Easy POC, really interesting product roadmap, solid value proposition. Good lifeline for compliance controls around access management flows.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Would have liked to see a shared approval logic for multiple people being able to approve the same ticket, not necessarily from the same group/function.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Access management pain points around automation, quarterly reviews and audit trails

  ### 9. Powerful tool that keeps getting better.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alex C. | Information Security Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Cakewalk has given us visibility and control where previously we were left in the dark. Having oversight of all the systems our users access is a massive help in our compliance requirements, then being able to provide clear, auditable evidence of any new access goes a long way in audits.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

We just need a Safari browser extension to get full visibility.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A lack of visibility of our entire tech estate.

  ### 10. Best product for fast-moving tech companies

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Vilte D. | Business Operations Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

We are a startup company, but we want to manage access in a highly professional manner. Most access management solutions out there are way too complex for us. Love Cakewalk for being super simple while still being very powerful! They built a product that employees actually (!) use, which was key for us. It also helps us greatly in working towards our SOC2 accreditation. Slack integration is great as well!

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

They are super responsive and quick. Feature missing? Team will build it for you.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

In simple terms: Making our access setup more secure (with complete access visibility), simplifying compliance, and keeping costs under control!

  ### 11. I’m a Cakewalk power user

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 23, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

I work in People Ops and also oversee key IT processes. Managing our employees access to software was very manual and barely trackable in the past. But we want to get it right in order to save costs and to have a correct overview of all our tools. Cakewalk helps us to run this all from one simple place - it’s making my life so much easier.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Hard to say … I really like their product and working with their team.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Discover all apps used by our teams, onboard people to apps, run access requests via their Slack AI agent (our people really like that one!), remove all seats when people leave Candis. I’m on top of things!

  ### 12. Streamlined Access Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2025

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Cakewalk has provided a single source of truth for company-wide access management and has made on and offboarding employees much more efficient while also enhancing security.
The Cakewalk team is responsive and thorough and we appreciate the ease provided by the slack integration. 
Implementation has been straightforward thanks to the Google SSO integration and Cakewalk's browser extension.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Do not have any dislikes/feedback as of now.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Efficient and secure tool access management for the entire company.

  ### 13. Easy to set up and use compliance tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alexander K. | Co-Founder & CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Simplistic setup and usage while, in general, compliance + infosec tools are clunky (not true for Cakewalk). I also love the autodetection feature.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

startup that is still a bit early, means features are potentially still missing, but they ship fast, so not too big of a downside

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

being compliant while our team grows continuesly

  ### 14. Access management the way You want it.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024

I have not found anything I dislike yet.

  ### 16. Just what we were looking for.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Legal Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 15, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

We don’t have a dedicated IT or security team yet, but we’re serious about security. Compared to other platforms, Cakewalk is super easy to set up and roll out across the company.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Nothing really. Team is super responsive when it comes to feature requests.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We’re in legal tech, so IT security and compliance are things we take very seriously. Since we handle sensitive data, we have to manage access thoroughly. Cakewalk makes that super easy for us.

  ### 17. Makes life so much easier

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kieran P. | Head of Technology, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 11, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

We feel much more structured now when on- and off-boarding employees; it's much harder to miss any tools or accounts that need setting up or removing.

The team are also super responsive when we have questions or need help.

We're not making the best use of the Slackbot yet so our employees can request access to tooling in a structured way, but I'm excited to try that out, and to see what else Cakewalk have to offer in future!

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Nothing really to dislike, though I'm looking forward to seeing more features in future (probably not long because the team are shipping fast!)

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Keeping track of who has access to what, streamlining on and offboarding.

**Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

nothing - team is super responsive when questions come up

**Reviewed by:** Roland B. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 09, 2024

Cakewalk has been a game-changer in managing user access, turning a once-painful task into a seamless process. The dedicated app catalog has made it easy for employees to request access to official tools while maintaining compliance.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Currently we do not see any downsides about using Cakewalk

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 13, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

We recently switched from a highly complex access management tool to Cakewalk. It's really easy for everyone to use, looks great, and the support team is always there to help us out, making the transition smooth and stress-free. Additionally, it helps us maintain compliance with ISO 27001 controls.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

I can't think of any downsides. The only features we miss are already in the pipeline for an upcoming release.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Suehyun K. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 29, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Offboarding is one of the most critical security tasks for IT. Ensuring that every single seat is removed when people leave the company is a challenge. With Cakewalk, we have complete visibility and can automate offboarding flows to ensure that we revoke all access.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

Can't think of any downsides currently and lots of new features coming out weekly! 🔥

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Ease of on-boarding and offboardings, cakewalk seems to be going in the direction of being inclusive with all the necessary tools/management.

  ### 24. Cakewalk made access management a piece of cake for us

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 10, 2024

**What do you like best about Cakewalk?**

Cakewalk helped us to get access to apps under control – something I thought would be painful & chaotic forever. Working in HR, my favourite feature in Cakewalk is of course the automated offboarding – really a game changer for us!

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

We worked with Cakewalk early on and I am a great fan. Nothing that comes to my mind really – the team also showed massive speed in adding new features we were asking for.

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Finally we have a structured, compliant and efficient way for on-and offboarding new employees.

  ### 25. Cakewalk makes my daily work so much easier

**Reviewed by:** Noah  B. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 10, 2024

Offboarding, a critical aspect of IT security, requires meticulous attention to revoke all access when employees leave. Cakewalk has made this task seamless by providing complete visibility and enabling the automation of offboarding flows.

**What do you dislike about Cakewalk?**

At the moment I can't say anything negative about Cakewalk, because everything is just great!

**What problems is Cakewalk solving and how is that benefiting you?**
