Productiv Reviews

What I like most about Productiv is the flexibility in the way the information is displayed. The information, before the implementation of Productiv, was there. but it was not fully integrated as it is now. I definitely consider, in my role as FinOps Manager, my main work tool.

I don't feel that it is something that I "dislike" but as a possibility for improvement, it would be very good if there was a way to estimate future expenses. For example, plan a company's annual budget for all SaaS in the portfolio. The information is there, however I must resort to an external form to be able to transpose it.

several. But to summarize, we have all the information from our portfolio together in one place, not only "trusting" the budget holder's forecast, but validating the information with current contracts, with real expenses, with assigned licenses, etc.

Productiv is a game-changer for managing our SaaS inventory. Its intuitive dashboard offers actionable insights, uncovering shadow IT and highlighting underutilized apps. Renewal reminders and detailed access management boost efficiency and security. App engagement data empowers us to optimize usage. It's a fantastic product that's revolutionized our SaaS management.

Given that the field of SaaS management is relatively young, it may take time for some organizations to fully integrate and maximize their day-to-day utilization of Productiv. Our experience has been super positive.

Shadow IT discovery, app renewal tracking, and Application engagement data and we are also it as part of our onboarding / off-boarding procedure.

Our account rep, Zach, is amazing! The tool itself is feature rich and has a lot of promising use cases throughout multiple teams and departments throughout our organization!

Data points for engagement connectors could use some attention. Usage reports pulled from each respective SaaS tool's Admin Dashboard, tend to vary slightly from the de-provisioning reports generated by Productiv. One field that is typically left blank equaling the user has simply not logged in for criteria of the report, example, 90days usage report. It would be helpful for our internal audits to actually have the last log in date, instead of it being left blank.

At the present, it is serving as an additional benchmarking tool for our SaaS renewals.

A user friendly platform that provides accurrate data for us to make informed decisions around SaaS budgets, to negotiate contracts well in advance and support alignment to our strategy as an organisation.

Maybe a little more refined reporting functionality, which seems to be something that Productiv is putting extra effort into enhancing. They are always very receptive to our feedback and acting on it.

Centralisation of all SaaS applications realising efficiencies when renewing SaaS, reconciling entitlement vs usage for informed negotiations with vendors, consolidation of like for like applications and understanding spend and trends across all SaaS, while achieving cost savings, reducing security and non-compliant risks. Allowing software asset managers and stakeholders to carry out higher level tasks.

The product out of the box is so easy to setup and use. What really makes the difference from our team is the enthusiasm and support from everyone we've worked with at Productiv. They help us interpret data and guide us toward informed recommendations for our SaaS portfolio.

Not a dislike, but there are plenty of opportunities for continued evolution of the platform. More robust reporting capabilities would be helpful. Additional customizations to fit our specific use cases.

We were primarily trying to have visibility into our entire apps portfolio in a more automated fashion. We also looked for reassurance that the data we had already collected manually was accurate. We now feel confident that we have captured all of the SaaS activity in the organization and we've been able to produce data-informed recommendations for controlling SaaS sprawl.

Productiv allows you to capture so many different pieces of information. It has helped me capture spend, renewal dates, business owner contacts, etc. I feel confident in the information Productiv captures through the different connectors. i.e. NetSuite/expense connectors. Our account manager is in constant contact with us making sure we have everything we need. Support is quick to respond.

The reporting isn't very intuitive and a bit overwhelming.

It has helped us identify shadow IT, stay on top of renewal dates and auto renewals, allows us to track the spend per tool, whether the tool has a contract or not.

There are tons of connectors available to help your team get impactful insights into your SaaS stack, and the data is presented beautifully. If you need to make data-driven decisions and want to easily present your findings to leadership, this is the tool for you!

This isn't a dislike, but I'd hope Productiv gains more feature parody when integrating with Google Workspace as your IDP vs the way more expensive Okta.

We implemented Productiv 6 months ago, and in this time it has become the source of truth for all things SaaS! Functional owners, spend, contracts and contract renewal dates, are all being tracked in Productiv. Additionally, AppCenter provides a central location for all app requests and ELM helps us to run reports and take action on quarterly user access audits. We also rely on our CSM and the Producctiv team for benchmarking data prior to entering renewal discussions with vendors.

Productiv's App Procurement Hub has made bringing all of our stakeholders together for SaaS renewals and SaaS intake effortless. It has provided structure to our internal processes while enabling a data-driven approach to our SaaS management.

AppCenter provides a window into our full tech stack for our employees and eliminates not only a significant burden of access fulfillment, but also redundancy in our tech stack as it surfaces existing applications that often fit the needs of users.

Best of all, renewals never sneak up on us anymore. We're always way ahead of the game and that provides an incredible amount of leverage in negotiations.

Nothing I would consider a dislike. They are constantly adding new features and that often requires me to look for ways to incorporate them. However, our CSM John L., and the rest of the Productiv team always go above and beyond to explain and help us incorporate the features in ways that make the most sense for our organization.

Management and distribution of hundreds of SaaS products to our employees.

Productiv has the ability to track app user usage in distinct and complementary ways, to assit with renewal downsizing - we all know that every user license we buy isn't always used, or used to its full extent. Productiv helps reveal this with their secret sauce.

Productiv is in its early stages of adding a bunch of new features, helping manage purchases, renewals, and overall app licensing. More can be done to include fully functional CASB and Google SSO traceability.

Right-sizing app licensing and helping to reduce licensing spend.

As someone who's on Productiv every day, it's very easy to use and gets you from trying to round up your tech stack, to staying on top of your tech stack in almost no time. It integrates very well with most systems, so setup is very smooth.

Contract processing in the platform isn't perfect, but improvements are always being made and their customer service is impeccable.

Productiv helps us locate duplicative apps, and apps that we might be spending too much on whether it's because we're overprovisioned, or are paying a higher price than others.
