Customer Identity Management products

Gigya’s Customer Identity Management is a complete solution for managing a new generation of user data, encompassing social identity data, social graph connections, behavior data, and traditional profile data.

The Gigya module for Drupal offers two main packages:

• Social Login: Allow users to quickly sign up to your blog or website using a preferred social network account.
• Registration-as-a-Service (RaaS): An end-to-end user management system package. RaaS offers a comprehensive cloud-based user registration system that supports Social Login, allowing sites to maintain a unified user database for both social and traditional site authentication. Thanks to integration with the Acquia Lift Drupal Module, you can present dynamic personalized content on your Drupal site, based on data received from Gigya's RaaS.
