  • Each has a real cost: Beyond Identity it is an authentication layer, not an identity provider, so you keep and keep paying for Okta or Entra ID underneath and the combined per-user cost is roughly double a single-vendor approach.; eCode360 eCode360's own vendor site now redirects to ICC Code Solutions, stating eCode360 is now part of ICC Innovation, indicating General Code has been absorbed into ICC rather than operating as an independent vendor
  • They diverge on capability: Beyond Identity covers Device-bound credentials, eCode360 covers Online Code Publishing.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Beyond Identity

  • It is an authentication layer, not an identity provider, so you keep and keep paying for Okta or Entra ID underneath and the combined per-user cost is roughly double a single-vendor approach.
  • Every device that authenticates needs the platform authenticator installed, which makes onboarding contractors, third parties and shared kiosks awkward and sometimes impossible.
  • Pricing is quoted per user with no published rates, so buyers cannot benchmark it against the increasingly capable passkey support now included in identity provider base licences.
  • Losing all enrolled devices requires an administrative recovery path, and organisations that design that path poorly reintroduce a social-engineering target at the helpdesk.
  • Legacy applications that only speak passwords or older protocols need a federation shim or stay outside the policy, so coverage is rarely complete in an estate with old systems.

eCode360

  • eCode360's own vendor site now redirects to ICC Code Solutions, stating eCode360 is now part of ICC Innovation, indicating General Code has been absorbed into ICC rather than operating as an independent vendor
  • ICC Code Solutions' own eCode360 page lists a Professional Subscription at $195 per year in USD for read access to the eCode library, separate from the municipal codification subscriptions sold to local governments

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Beyond Identity: Does it replace Okta or Entra ID?

No. It sits in front of them as the authentication method. Budget for both.

Beyond Identity: What happens when a user loses their laptop?

They authenticate from another enrolled device, or go through an administrative recovery flow. Designing that recovery well matters, because it is the weakest point.

Beyond Identity: Is it different from passkeys?

The credential mechanism is similar in spirit. The difference is enforcing device security posture at every authentication, which standard passkeys do not do.
