BROUGHT TO YOU BY: Sastrify and Fastly
Sastrify Thanks a lot to my friends at Sastrify for sponsoring this episode. A lot of CTOs I know are responsible for procurement of software as a service tools by accident and never have the time and energy to work on optimizing their costs. For example: at my company OMR, we have a lot of tools… Gsuite, Adobe creative cloud, Newrelic and many more. Sastrify helps companies like ours to optimize those costs & negotiate with suppliers of such software. In our case they helped us to save around 20.000€ per year, which is a lot if you look at our company size of around 150 people. It is a simple and hassle-free process we went through and I can just recommend anyone listening to do the same. They actually promise to save more money than they cost.
They are already working with a lot of alphalist members such as Runstatic, Westwing and Emma.
