How Teisko Helped Uncover a Hidden SaaS Subscription — and Prevent Redundant Spending

In today’s complex IT environments, even the most structured organizations can lose track of their active SaaS subscriptions. A recent case from one of our partners illustrates this challenge perfectly—and how Teisko can help prevent costly redundancies in SaaS spending.
Uncover Shadow IT

One of our partners, who both uses and resells Teisko, recently received an order from a customer for another SaaS product in their portfolio. Everything seemed straightforward—until just 20 minutes later, and then the order was canceled. What happened? The customer’s organization had already subscribed to a similar SaaS solution. And what was the problem? Not one person in the IT department knew about it.

 

Due to a fragmented organizational structure, with IT responsibilities split among smaller internal units, the customer had lost a clear overview of which tools were in use. This situation isn’t unique. As businesses grow and decentralize, their software ecosystems often become difficult to manage.

 

That’s where Teisko steps in and helps.

 

Teisko provides centralized visibility into your SaaS landscape, helping organizations document which tools are in use, by whom, and for what purpose. It brings clarity to complex environments, avoids duplicate subscriptions, and supports IT and procurement in making informed decisions.

 

If the customer had implemented Teisko earlier, the original SaaS subscription would have been visible, which would have saved time, effort, and confusion. What’s even better is that Teisko helps teams proactively evaluate whether a new tool is truly needed or whether something similar is already in place.

 

For resellers and consultants, this is also a strong value proposition. Teisko not only enhances internal operations, but it also supports clients in optimizing their SaaS strategies. This is going to make your role as a trusted advisor even more impactful for your organization.

 

In short: Teisko doesn’t just document software. It uncovers hidden value—and prevents hidden costs.
