Productiv Launches Enhanced SaaS Management Platform to Help Companies Optimize Costs

Productiv, the market leader in software-as-a-service management, announced new innovations to its award-winning SaaS Intelligence Platform¹ to bring IT, finance and procurement teams together through the power of data – so companies can unlock the value of their SaaS portfolios at scale. The enhanced platform helps business leaders to work together and be confident in their decisions and actions, whether that’s gaining visibility into and rightsizing their SaaS investments, managing renewals or increasing operational efficiency.

“At Productiv, we believe that when teams align, great things happen – and this belief is at the heart of our vision of bringing teams together through the power of data”

“At Productiv, we believe that when teams align, great things happen – and this belief is at the heart of our vision of bringing teams together through the power of data,” said Jody Shapiro, CEO and co-founder of Productiv. “In today’s challenging environment, the race will be won by teams who get equal access to the deep data and insights they need to align cross-functionally to make better decisions. We’re thrilled to bring to market our most robust platform yet, providing trusted data that aligns IT, finance, procurement and business leaders so they can optimize SaaS app spend, eliminate waste and redundancies and better manage renewals.”

Companies are looking to get the most value out of the software they purchase, especially in the current unpredictable global business environment. In particular, many are looking at SaaS applications, which have exploded in use. According to Gartner, by 2025 SaaS spending is projected to surpass $210B and account for over 50% of a company’s total app spend. Yet according to Productiv’s data, 60% of SaaS licenses are currently being underutilized.

Given this climate, procurement teams are feeling the pressure to work collaboratively with IT and across the business to optimize SaaS spending. This starts with being on the same page as IT — from app consolidation to license renewals — and having insights for productive conversations with line of business (LoB) app owners.

Productiv’s new enhancements offer further capabilities that provide customers with the deepest insights for SaaS decision making and intelligent cost optimization to get the most value from their app investments.

Productiv added enhancements that enable procurement and IT teams to jointly view SaaS application vendor, contract, licensing, pricing and usage information — including granular, feature-level usage — to drive the next level of cost optimization. Newly launched features to support this area include:

• Reseller insights help companies track and understand reseller spend on a single page to manage overall spend, apps and licenses across program resellers.
• Enhanced pricing benchmark views allow businesses to quickly compare app pricing against similar organizations and gain favorable contract terms.

Renewals management is a critical area that procurement teams want to improve by leveraging trusted data on vendor contracts, structure and spend. Unlike other vendors, Productiv enables procurement, finance, IT and business leaders to confidently manage renewals with the deepest employee app usage insights. Productiv now makes access to this rich and business-critical data even easier with all new Export APIs.

• Export APIs Integration: Teams can leverage APIs to easily share Productiv data with other applications such as ITSM/CMDB to ensure SaaS data is accurately integrated in the broader organizational context.
