Generic SaaS

Use the Generic SaaS pages in SAM Core on Snow Atlas to find optimization opportunities for your SaaS subscriptions.

The Generic SaaS pages provide an overview of which SaaS (Software as a Service) service providers are being used in your organization, by which users and how much they are using them. The information is imported from the respective service provider via Snow Integration Connector for SaaS.

Select a SaaS service provider to explore details for the provider, and then select a subscription to explore more details for the specific subscription type.

To populate the Generic SaaS pages with data you need inventory sources, and to get correct statistics and insights you must add cost periods to the subscriptions. For more information, see Prerequisites for Generic SaaS.
