In the fourth quarter, Okta announced expanded partnerships with Fortune 500 IT services company DXC Technology, Finance of America, OFX, Renault, State of Iowa, Washington State Board of Community and Technical Colleges, and Zoom Video.

The company has also gained significant traction in the financial services industry with new and expanded deployments for Canadian Western Bank, First National of Nebraska, and Nota, powered by M&T Bank.

Okta Identity Cloud’s capability to consolidate and easily integrate existing applications, without compromising security or stability, is attracting customers.

In the fourth quarter fiscal 2021, Okta added 600 new customers, taking the total customer count to 10,000, up 26% year over year. Moreover, partnership with the likes of salesforce.com (CRM - Free Report) is helping the company to win customers.

Moreover, this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company is expected to benefit from an uptick in IT spending backed by the ongoing digital transformation to satisfy remote working, education and new social norms.
