Gartner Is Right That You Can’t Substitute WPM for PAM, So Stop Choosing Between Them

Workforce password management (WPM) and privileged access management (PAM) tools both store credentials, but Gartner's July 2026 research concludes they cannot substitute for each other. WPM lacks privileged account discovery, automated service-account rotation, and session recording. PAM is too complex and costly for everyday workforce use. The Akeyless Identity Security Platform delivers purpose-built WPM and modern PAM on a single control plane, avoiding the substitution risk Gartner warns about.
