Next-generation solutions integrate Flexera and Snow for unparalleled control and a holistic view of the Service as Software (SAAS) ecosystem
Itasca, Illinois, July 31, 2025 (Globe Newswire) – Flexera, a global leader in technology spending and risk intelligence, today announced the launch of Flexera One SaaS Management, offering the industry's most comprehensive approach to discovering, optimizing and controlling SaaS. Next-generation solutions combine the strengths of both Flexera and Snow SaaS management applications to enable organizations to gain full visibility, save costs and reduce risks for SaaS applications and AI tools.
Organizations are increasingly navigating complex SaaS environments, often relying solely on financial discovery methods to manage their assets. However, this singular approach is not sufficient to obtain a mature and complete view of the ecosystem. The latest challenge in SaaS is the rise in Shadow AI, where many free AI applications are undetected and undiscovered. The Flexera 2025 State of Itam report shows that only 43% of respondents reported full visibility across IT assets, starting from 47% last year. The lack of comprehensive views of the enterprise ecosystem prevents cost optimization, increases the risk of Shadow It, SaaS Sprawl and Compliance violations, and provides a more complete discovery solution essential to overall SaaS management.
“The rapid adoption of AI is reshaping the SaaS landscape and introducing new challenges like Shadow AI,” said Brian Shannon, Flexera's chief technology officer. “Companies struggle with stricter surveillance and governance demands in the age of AI. The unified Flexera One SaaS Management Solution addresses these changing challenges, particularly as businesses integrate more strategically.
Improves vision and control of your SaaS landscape
Today, organizations need a complete and unified view of the SaaS ecosystem. Flexera One SaaS management consolidates data on SaaS and AI applications usage and spends it on a single integrated platform. Flexera's market-leading visibility allows organizations to reduce unnecessary spending, streamline overlapping tools, and monitor usage trends in real time.

The most complete discovery engine in market that utilizes a comprehensive range of discovery methods, including Browser and Financial Discovery, Agent, API, Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), and Single-Sign On (SSO), the solution ensures that all SaaS (including sanctioned and unsanctioned) and employee use of AI is broadly covered.Enhanced control over critical SaaS applications through robust enterprise-ready API integrations with key SaaS providers like Microsoft 365, Salesforce and ServiceNow, provides insights on previously unknown costs for a comprehensive analysis of license details. Integrate usage intelligence, financial data and automated remediation to provide insight into underutilized licenses or features, and provide downgraded app tiers based on actual usage. “Before Flexera, SaaS management was fragmented and manual, and even routine tasks like audit preparation and license adjustments were extremely time-consuming and resource-intensive,” said Clare Tonkin, Head of Software License Management at Thames Water. “Fleexera transformed our approach and provided a close, real-time visibility and a unified data model. This eliminates blind spots, accelerates risk mitigation, gives us confidence in guesswork, and allows us to move from reactive to aggressive governance.”
Flexera's continuous innovation in SaaS management provides customers with essential technologies to move ahead with the evolving application landscape and increasingly decentralized software adoption. Creating a Unified Platform further demonstrates Flexera's commitment to continuing investment in its snow portfolio, highlighting its commitment to strengthening support and providing comprehensive solutions to its customers.
