Track your increasing SaaS & Cloud spend where it counts most

Cloud Sprawl – Uncontrolled proliferation of an organization’s cloud instances, services or providers.
Shadow IT – Uncontrolled Cloud resources and SaaS subscriptions that exist without organizational approval.
Bill Shock – The financial impact of unexpected changing costs.
Toxic Consumption – When required resources are purchased but then not managed efficiently.

Cloud IaaS / PaaS
Certero for Cloud currently has two modules to manage the major Cloud IaaS / PaaS vendors in Azure and AWS (with Google also coming soon). These modules ensure that the six disciplines of Cloud Asset Management are covered:
- Cloud Discovery – What IaaS / PaaS is out there? Is everything known to the business?
- Cloud Inventory – What exactly is it? how important is it? how does it need to be managed?
- Cloud Usage – What resources are being used, how much, by whom and what for?
- Optimization – Performance and Capacity planning, identification and eradication of wasted assets.
- Bring Your Own License (BYOL) – The ability to use licenses you’ve purchased, in the Cloud.
- Financial Management – The ongoing cycle of Identifying – Understanding – Managing – Optimizing costs.
Managing & Optimizing SaaS
While the number of SaaS apps in use across the business is growing, most organizations will invest the vast majority of their SaaS spend in a handful of apps and suites like Office 365, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Slack, Okta, G-Suite and Adobe Creative Cloud.
That’s why Certero for Cloud’s eleven major SaaS vendor modules are optimized to focus your priorities on where the most substantial savings can be made.
