Cledara – Helping Companies Bring Visibility and Control to Their Ever-Growing Saas Stack

SaaS management is the business practice of proactively monitoring and managing the purchasing, onboarding, licensing, renewals, and off-boarding of all the software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications within a company’s technology portfolio. Developed in response to the unique attributes of SaaS applications in a business environment, SaaS management is quickly developing into a specialized practice for IT, Procurement, and business leaders. The goal of SaaS management is to reduce risk from unmanaged tools or technologies, improve the value of purchased software, and increase the effectiveness of users who deploy SaaS applications. Every SaaS application used for business stores business data the moment an employee uses a company email account to purchase or demo the application. Sensitive data such as customer information or business records also eventually makes its way into SaaS and other cloud-based software. A SaaS management approach that discovers and identifies all SaaS applications in use in the business bolsters security via visibility.

Cledara is one such platform that is built to help companies bring visibility and control of all their SaaS so they can focus on serving their customers. From discovery to purchasing, management and cancellation, it is the All-in-One SaaS management platform that companies love. Cledara aims to create a shared consciousness in a business where teams work harmoniously together, aided - rather than hindered - by their software and processes. They truly believe that the value they create extends beyond the workplace, to the individual that can spend their valuable time on what they choose. This is the true power of technology.
