In today’s digital landscape, SaaS applications are essential, but they also come with hidden costs. Recent findings by Josys reveal that 25% of SaaS spending is wasted on underutilized, unassigned, and shadow licenses. To address this, Josys has introduced new features that empower IT teams to optimize their SaaS budgets and strengthen security measures.

License Optimization: Reducing Waste and Boosting Efficiency

One of the biggest challenges IT teams face is tracking SaaS licenses and ensuring they’re assigned and used efficiently. Josys helps solve this problem by offering a 360° view of all SaaS licenses within the organization, helping IT managers identify areas where licenses are underutilized or no longer needed.

For example, companies often pay for licenses that remain unassigned, while shadow IT—unauthorized tools used by employees—further drains the budget. Josys’s platform provides insights into license usage, allowing IT teams to quickly audit, adjust, and optimize their SaaS portfolios, ensuring no money is wasted on unused licenses.


Enhanced Access Management for Better Security

Another critical update is Josys’s Enhanced Access Management feature. With this, IT teams can now audit and modify user roles and subscription plans directly within the platform. This feature not only saves time but also enhances security by ensuring that only authorized personnel have access to sensitive applications.

Additionally, Josys has streamlined user role management, making it easier for IT teams to enforce compliance and reduce the risk of unauthorized access to company data.


Netskope Integration: Strengthening SaaS Security

The integration with Netskope has been upgraded, offering real-time risk scoring for over 14,500 apps. This helps IT teams to secure shadow IT and enhance compliance. With this added layer of security, companies can confidently manage their SaaS environments, keeping their data safe from breaches and ensuring that all applications comply with security regulations.


The Future of SaaS Management

As businesses continue to expand their SaaS usage, controlling costs and securing data will remain top priorities. Josys is leading the way in helping companies navigate these challenges, offering tools that simplify SaaS management, reduce waste, and improve security.
