Problem
Companies often lack visibility into their full software and SaaS application portfolio, leading to shadow IT, redundant tools, and uncontrolled spending. Manual tracking of licenses, contracts, and user access is time-consuming and error-prone, while missed renewal dates and under-utilized licenses drive up costs.
Solution
Boza provides a centralized SaaS management platform that automatically maps applications, users, and usage across an organization by connecting to SSO and identity provider tools. The platform delivers a 360-degree view of the application portfolio, tracks costs and usage metrics, and uses AI to suggest optimizations. Boza also automates access provisioning workflows for employee onboarding and offboarding, and centralizes contract management with renewal reminders. A dedicated procurement service leverages benchmark data and expert negotiation to secure better pricing on software contracts, with fees based on realized savings.
Target Audience
Primary customers are IT managers, CFOs, and procurement teams at small to mid-sized companies (starting around 30 employees) that want to control SaaS spending, reduce shadow IT, and streamline access management.
