What IT Teams Find

"Secure Browsing replaced what used to be a manual routine, chasing users, sending questionnaires, blocking domains one at a time. Now sensitive data gets flagged the moment it's typed, redirects happen automatically, and the log is already there when we need it."
Customer Image
Edgar Peics
CTO
"Proving SOC 2 posture across 84 apps used to take weeks before every audit. Now it all sits in one view, sorted by severity, with evidence and a note on every control. When the auditors asked a question, the answer was already in the audit log, and the audit wrapped without our team chasing app owners."

"Managing access across every SaaS app manually took too much time and made deprovisioning hard to verify. CloudEagle eliminated that manual work with automated provisioning and one-click deprovisioning, saving us hundreds of hours and giving our team time back for more strategic work."

“It catches what our IdP cannot”
We had done everything right on paper: corporate Copilot rolled out, an approved AI list published, SSO on everything we sanctioned. None of that catches an employee signing into ChatGPT with a personal account on a work laptop. CloudEagle.ai’s browser-level detection does. It flags the visit, shows it is a non-corporate account, and shows who is doing it and how often.

“Revoked access we did not know existed”
CloudEagle.ai gave us a complete view of what was connected, who had authorized each connection, and which scopes were granted. Within the first week we revoked a batch of access we did not even know was there.

“Killed the spreadsheets, saw ROI by the next renewal”
Seamless organization, real-time data, and analytics in one place. The time we used to spend on manual data entry now goes to work that matters, and we saw ROI in the next renewal cycle.
Feature by feature

CloudEagle.ai vs Zylo, and where each one wins

The Problem
AI governance
Employees use AI tools IT never approved.
CloudEagle.ai logo
Finds AI tools, agents from browser, SSO and finance data, with a risk score per tool

CloudEagle.ai logo
Token consumption by user, team and project with chargeback report with spend limits and AI budgeting.
Consumption by team, project and user, with alerts at commitment thresholds. No limits found.

Why CloudEagle.ai

Everything Zylo does on spend, plus the governance it leaves out

Turn insight into action

Zylo tells you which licenses are unused and which apps are risky. CloudEagle.ai tells you too, then fixes it: it reclaims unused seats, removes risky access, and enforces your policies.

From findings to fixes, on one platform

Govern access, not just spend

Access reviews, just-in-time access, segregation of duties, and non-human identity are full products here, not gaps. Zylo has no access-review or JIT product and ships no NHI. If governance and audit readiness matter, this is the difference.

Governance a spend tool doesn't have

Govern AI, not just its bill

Both platforms track AI consumption. Only CloudEagle.ai enforces it: browser-level data protection that blocks sensitive content going to AI tools, native GenAI risk scoring wired into provisioning, and real-time redirect to approved tools. Zylo sees the cost; it cannot control the use.

Enforcement and data protection, not just a cost view

No mandatory services retainer

CloudEagle.ai is a self-serve platform. It's modular and priced per active user, so you buy only the modules you need. Zylo's model is services-led, with SaaS Operations and SaaS Negotiator bundled into its tiers. Reviewers cite the retainer, the implementation timeline, and the termination terms as real friction.

Modular, with no bundle you didn't ask for

1. What is the difference between CloudEagle.ai and Zylo?

Zylo is a SaaS spend management and benchmarking platform with a paid negotiation service. CloudEagle.ai manages the same spend and adds the governance layer Zylo has no product for: access reviews, just-in-time access, non-human identity and AI agents, SaaS security posture, and AI enforcement. It's modular, priced per active user, with no mandatory services retainer.

2. Is CloudEagle.ai a good alternative to Zylo?

Yes, especially if you want one platform for both spend and governance instead of a spend tool plus separate access, security, and AI-governance tools. Teams also move for modular pricing and the absence of a required services retainer.

3. Does Zylo do access reviews or identity governance?

No. Zylo's only lifecycle piece is deprovisioning workflows. It has no access-review product, no just-in-time access, no segregation of duties, and no non-human identity management. CloudEagle.ai covers access reviews, JIT access, least-privilege policies, and NHI.

4. Where does Zylo win?

In a few places. Zylo has a larger price-benchmark dataset. If deep benchmark scale is your top criterion, weigh them.

5. Which platform is better for AI governance?

Both track AI spend. Only CloudEagle.ai governs AI: browser-level data protection, GenAI risk scoring that gates access, model-level rules, and real-time policy enforcement. Zylo offers a cost view of connected AI providers but cannot control which tools are used or what data is shared.

6. How is pricing different?

CloudEagle.ai is modular and priced per active user, so you pay only for the modules you use. Zylo is tiered (Core, Premium, Enterprise) with paid services bundled in. Reviewers note Zylo's services retainer and its termination notice terms as friction. Confirm current pricing with each provider.

7. Can CloudEagle.ai discover shadow IT and shadow AI?

Yes, across a broader surface than Zylo. CloudEagle.ai correlates network, endpoint, MDM, browser, SSO, and finance data, so it catches unsanctioned AI that never touches finance or SSO. Zylo discovers from finance and SSO data only.

8. Who should choose CloudEagle.ai over Zylo?

Teams that need to act on SaaS insights, not just see them: reclaim licenses, run access reviews, govern AI, and manage identity, on the same platform that runs spend and renewals, without a mandatory services retainer.
