SaaS sprawl is the silent leak in your IT budget
Every department buys its own tools, licence counts grow with peak headcount but never shrink again, and annual price indexation runs on unnoticed. In practice, comparing actual usage against the contracts almost always uncovers savings — without any loss of performance.
What you get
- Usage analysis — actual usage per licence and service compared against what you're contractually paying for.
- Savings analysis — unnecessary licences, duplicate SaaS and renegotiable rates translated into a concrete savings potential.
- Contract optimisation — renewals used as a negotiating moment: volumes, terms and SLAs tightened up.
Compliance comes with it
Cost optimisation and compliance are two sides of the same analysis: whoever knows what's running also knows where the GDPR, ISO 27001 and DORA risks sit. See also Security, Compliance & Risk.
Want ongoing monitoring instead of a one-off exercise? VendorManager.nl handles that on a subscription basis — including a renewal radar and cost monitoring at every renewal.
Frequently asked questions
How much can typically be saved?
That varies by organisation, but comparing actual usage against contracts almost always delivers structural savings in practice — through cancelled licences, cleaned-up SaaS sprawl and renegotiated rates.
Do you have an interest in any particular cloud vendor?
No. Digital Sourcing does not sell software or licences and receives no fees from vendors. The analysis serves your interests only.
What do I need to get started?
Your contracts and invoices, and, where available, usage data from your vendors' admin portals. An initial overview is typically ready within a few weeks.
