RateGain, a global travel tech company, faced mounting challenges in managing its rapidly growing software stack of over 100 applications. Everything was managed through spreadsheets, which made it hard to see how tools were being used, where money was being wasted, or when renewals were coming up. This led to overspending, unused licenses, and missed chances to optimize their software stack.

Challenge

As RateGain grew, managing our expanding SaaS portfolio became increasingly difficult. Different departments adopted their own tools, and we relied on spreadsheets to track licenses and renewals—an inefficient and error-prone process.

Without a centralized system, we had limited visibility into license usage. We couldn’t easily identify underused or redundant apps, which led to wasted spend. Manual tracking further complicated renewals, requiring time-consuming reviews of emails and spreadsheets and increasing the risk of missed deadlines or unwanted auto-renewals.

We also lacked a clear, consolidated view of total SaaS spend. Comparing costs across vendors or identifying contracts for optimization was nearly impossible, leading to missed opportunities for savings.

Solution

"CloudEagle.ai transformed how we manage our SaaS licenses by automating the identification of underused licenses. It gave us real-time visibility into our software usage, helping us quickly find areas of overspending and remove unused licenses. The platform’s data-driven insights allowed us to act immediately and optimize our SaaS portfolio efficiently."

Eliminating Underused and Duplicate Licenses

CloudEagle.ai provided RateGain with detailed real-time insights into how software licenses were being used by department, feature, and user. This made it easy to spot underused or duplicate licenses and reassign them, reducing unnecessary spending. Automation replaced manual tracking, ensuring RateGain only paid for what teams truly needed, leading to smarter, data-driven decisions.

Automated Renewal Alerts and Approval Workflows

RateGain streamlined its renewal process using CloudEagle.ai’s centralized renewal calendar and automated reminders sent 90 days in advance.

The result: fewer delays, fewer surprises, and more time for strategic work.

Consolidated SaaS Spending Across Teams and Tools

CloudEagle.ai helped RateGain bring all SaaS tools and spending into one centralized platform. With a clear, unified view of all subscriptions across departments, the team could easily monitor usage, plan renewals, and avoid duplicate purchases. This consolidation improved cost control, eliminated waste, and gave the business greater visibility into total SaaS spend.
