Challenge

As our SaaS usage grew, so did the complexity of managing our Zoom licenses. At first, it seemed manageable, but as the team expanded, the lack of a proper tracking system quickly turned into a tangled web of inefficiencies.

We found ourselves buried in emails and spreadsheets, desperately trying to keep track of who was using which licenses and when. It was a slow, tedious process, and the more we relied on it, the more chaotic it became.

The real challenge? We had no visibility into which licenses were being fully utilized. Some were barely touched, while others were overused—yet we couldn’t see this. Instead, licenses were handed out based on assumptions, leading to wasted resources and over-provisioning. It felt like we were throwing darts in the dark, hoping to hit the right target.

The challenges didn’t end there. Renewal deadlines were always in the back of our minds, and we feared missing them, leading to extra fees or disruptions.

Solution

"CloudEagle.ai helped us track and reclaim unused Zoom licenses using its license reclamation workflows. Its simple dashboard made it easy to manage our licenses and reduce wasted spending. We could quickly reassign licenses, ensuring maximum efficiency across teams."

Detailed Usage Analytics and Reporting

CloudEagle.ai gave OysterHR in-depth, real-time analytics on Zoom license usage across the organization. The team could instantly see which licenses were active, underused, or not needed at all. These insights made it easy to spot inefficiencies and reallocate licenses more effectively.

Eliminating Inactive User Licenses

OysterHR had been struggling with licenses assigned to users who barely used Zoom. CloudEagle.ai automatically flagged these inactive accounts, making it easy to identify and reclaim unused licenses. This allowed the team to cut down on waste and reassign resources where they were needed.
