100%. Instead keep track of where they sign up with their business email and explain why they can't use those tools.

Indeed, there are some great alternatives for discovering Shadow IT, some with more or less overhead (i.e. browser extensions that nobody wants to install).

Another interesting approach I learned from the Director of IT at Intercom (Emanuele Sparvoli): They pay for a single seat in each of the typical "Shadow IT" SaaS apps. Then they b…

The biggest challenge is that there's an abundance of SaaS tools that are free to use or have extensive free trials. This often lures employee's in "just trying" a platform and end…

Great to see that we were not alone with the struggles! Let me know if you are up for a quick chat. Would love to learn more about your situation and how OpenOwl could help fix it.…

That's the spirit! Thanks for the kind words. Indeed, ease of use is incredibly important. After all this is a tool that needs to be used non-developer IT admins as well.

In future versions it will be possible to do the same with, for example, your Google SSO sign-in and 2FA enabled. The reason for the limitation is that we simply wanted to get it o…
