Xensam Launches Standalone SaaS Management Platform, Redefining Software Visibility for Modern Organizations

• Xensam’s new SaaS Management standalone platform detects and maps all SaaS subscriptions – known and unknown – across the Enterprise

• Eliminates subscription bloat and wasted spend, while enabling both centralized and distributed control—and direct management—of your SaaS applications

• Immediately recognizes 100,000+ SaaS business applications through AI agent-based URL tracking – without a browser extension

Stockholm, 22 April 2025: Xensam, the software asset management (SAM) leader known for disrupting the category with innovative AI, has today announced the launch of its first SaaS Management platform. Leveraging technology, capabilities and features from Xensam’s popular Xupervisor SAM platform, this new standalone SaaS offering meets the rising need for complete visibility, cost control, and compliance across SaaS environments – essential for fast-growing, cloud-native companies as well as enterprises relying on legacy hard-to-operate, siloed SAM solutions.

Enterprises are currently wrestling with increasing IT costs with SaaS spending rising to 15-20% year-on-year reaching $247.2 billion in 2024. This has been accelerated by the rapid adoption of new AI solutions with Gartner predicting that 80% of enterprises will deploy generative AI applications by 2026 – a massive leap from less than 5% in early 2023. Organizations are now managing an average of more than 125 different SaaS applications across the business with a growing amount of subscription spend wasted on redundant or underused software.

Xensam is now making its standalone SaaS management version of its Xupervisor platform available so cloud-native businesses and modern enterprises can detect, map and provide control over the ever-evolving subscription unknown unknowns’.

Oskar Fösker, CEO, Xensam said:

“We are excited to introduce our SaaS Management Platform, a game-changer in how organizations manage their SaaS portfolios. Faced with a tidal wave of new SaaS applications, in part driven by Enterprise’s rapid adoption with a tidal wave of new SaaS applications, in part driven by Enterprise’s rapid adoption of AI, businesses need a robust solution to determine productivity, prevent subscription bloat and ensure real business value from their growing software investments. Our platform is designed to provide the insights, control and security that the Enterprise needs to unleash productivity gains from their SaaS investments while managing costs efficiently.”

The standalone platform delivers comprehensive visibility of SaaS applications across hybrid IT environments for modern enterprises. Businesses will also benefit from significant cost savings with Xensam’s Active Usage Tracking, which delivers granular insights on SaaS consumption and enables organizations to cancel, or downgrade under-utilized and unused SaaS licenses. The platform also mitigates SaaS security risks by illuminating unseen and potentially vulnerable applications and bringing them under the control of the IT department.

The new standalone Xupervisor SaaS management platform can be deployed on any software stack or IT environment, providing devolved ownership and responsibility for SaaS Management across the business with an easy-to-use interface, while ensuring IT has centralized data visibility and maintains full control of provisioning, security and compliance.

Key features of Xensam’s New SaaS Management Platform:

• Control SaaS sprawl: Utilize Xensam’s AI-powered software normalization agent to easily discover and integrate over 100,000 SaaS business applications, providing complete visibility across the organization.
• Improving SaaS security: Enhance control over software provisioning and usage to ensure cybersecurity, data privacy, and effective data management.
• Eliminate wasted SaaS spend: Track individual application usage in real-time, with customized reports, to enable precise FinOps, with cost control and allocation by user, business unit, and vendor.

Deployment is straightforward, allowing businesses to quickly gain an overview of their SaaS environment, including integrating purchased utilized applications and identifying immediate savings of ‘zombie’ underutilized applications. The platform can be easily tailored to any organizational structure and all business units, so organizations can break siloes, rapidly gain control of their software and take immediate steps to reduce costs.
