SaaS Spend Management

See how KarmaCheck made SaaS security pay for itself

10x increase in visibility of SaaS apps
Faster, simpler user access reviews
Removal of unused licenses and overlapping apps

"Within the first six months, we recouped 150% of the annual cost of Nudge."

The Challenge

KarmaCheck is a fully-remote company in a heavily regulated industry. As a background check company, security is extremely important to them due to the PII that they need to handle.

To shore up security, their IT team began conducting quarterly audits of all SaaS services in a spreadsheet and quickly realized the looming challenge of managing this project given the company's rapid pace of growth.

Key benefits for KarmaCheck:

Day One discovery of all SaaS apps

Nudge Security discovered 10x more apps than KarmaCheck was tracking via their manual process, giving them an accurate, complete SaaS inventory on Day One.

SaaS subscription cost savings

Nudge Security discovers up to two years of historical SaaS spend data, which KarmaCheck used to identify SaaS overlap and unused seats, freeing up SaaS savings.

Faster compliance audits

Before Nudge, SOC 2 access reviews required over 100 hours of manual effort for the KarmaCheck team. Now, that work can be completed in just 1-3 days while auditing 2x the number of apps.

Time-saving automation

The KarmaCheck IT team uses playbooks in Nudge Security to nudge users to get clarification on app use, shut down accounts where necessary, and automate employee offboarding.

Third party risk and AI governance

Nudge Security provides security profiles for thousands of apps which has helped KarmaCheck’s security officer manage an influx of security review requests for new AI tools.
