“I highly recommend CloudEagle to anyone trying to get complete spend visibility and cost per license details to optimize their SaaS spending.”
- Iffi Wahla, Co-founder and CEO of Edge
Edge's decentralized SaaS management led to uncontrolled spending. Challenges included a lack of spend insights per department, inefficient attribution, time spent due to manual tracking, and the team didn’t have much visibility into purchased licenses and cost per license data.

The shift to CloudEagle's centralized dashboard from spreadsheets enhanced spend management, enabling informed optimization decisions.
We were using a decentralized approach to managing our SaaS applications and their associated spending. However, this approach resulted in lapses in spend data, causing our SaaS spend to spiral out of control.
Managing the SaaS spend in this manner posed significant challenges. Even though we tracked our apps broadly with spreadsheets, we didn’t have all the details, like what licenses we bought and how much they cost.
Our finance team struggled to track each department's spend on applications because our spreadsheets lacked comprehensive recording.
“Our onboarding process was very quick, and CloudEagle instantly integrated with our internal systems and started scanning our SaaS portfolio.”
