CloudEagle.ai Helped Horizon Media Uncover $107K in Renewal Savings and Eliminate Unused Licenses

"We had limited visibility into SaaS usage and spending across departments, which made it hard to control costs or manage renewals effectively. There was no centralized process, and unused licenses often went unnoticed. CloudEagle.ai changed that by giving us the tools and insights to track usage, benchmark pricing, and make informed decisions. Now we have full control over our software spend."

— Abhishek Khare, SVP, Chief Acceleration Officer, Horizon Media

Challenge

As our company grew, each department began purchasing its own SaaS tools, leading to a fragmented and complex SaaS environment. Without a centralized system to track usage, renewals, or spending, it became hard to manage costs and eliminate duplicates.

We often paid for overlapping or inactive licenses, wasting budget. We also lacked pricing benchmarks to negotiate better deals, and the lack of coordination between IT, procurement, and finance made managing SaaS even more difficult.

Solution
  • CloudEagle.ai gave Horizon Media full visibility into all SaaS apps by categorizing them, helping identify duplicates and wasted spend.
  • ntegrations with Zoom and Monday.com provided real-time usage insights, allowing the team to deactivate unused licenses and reduce costs.
  • Price benchmarking uncovered overpayments, helping Horizon Media renegotiate better contracts and save $107K on renewals.
  • Automated renewal workflows and alerts simplified vendor communication, ensuring timely renewals and smoother negotiations
