Head-to-head comparison
Butterfly Security vs Keepit
Both products back up Okta. Butterfly leads with preview every restore before it touches production, a self-serve free trial, and Okta-native depth. Keepit leads with vendor-independent infrastructure across 7 Equinix regions and broad multi-SaaS coverage.

Where Keepit is stronger
- Vendor-independent infrastructure is Keepit's flagship story — backups live on Keepit-owned hardware across 7 Equinix regions, with no AWS/Azure/GCP dependency. For teams whose threat model includes hyperscaler outages or sovereignty requirements, this is a real differentiator.
- Broad SaaS catalog beyond identity (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Entra ID, Dynamics, and more) under a single contract.
- Strong European / EU-sovereignty positioning and a long track record with regulated industries.
- Established enterprise procurement footprint and channel partner network.
Where Butterfly is stronger
- •Preview-first restore: every restore renders a Terraform-style plan with line-by-line diffs before any object is written back to your tenant — Keepit does not lead with a plan/apply preview workflow.
- •Self-serve 30-day free trial with no credit card and no sales call — connect Okta and run a real backup the same day. Keepit is quote-only.
- •Identity-specialist depth: full Okta Workflows backup (flow versions, folders, tables, connector projects), Terraform HCL export, free Chrome extension, and 6-framework compliance — not a thin Okta connector inside a multi-SaaS suite.
- •Genuine free tier (1 connection, 1 backup, 7-day retention) so an admin can validate Butterfly against their real tenant before opening a procurement conversation.
- •iOS companion for incident response and helpdesk actions is coming soon — join the waitlist at /ios.
