Here's a gut-punch moment: Wefunder was paying for the same SaaS app twice, once annually, once monthly. 🤯 They had no idea. Because they were stuck managing everything on spreadsheets, and their regular finance systems totally missed the anomaly. The story: Wefunder's Director of Finance, Sophie Wang, knew their SaaS budget was chaotic. But when you have a small team and use spreadsheets to track dozens of vendors, costly errors become inevitable. Their manual process allowed a critical, expensive double-billing issue from a vendor to fly completely under the radar. So, how did they overcome this? Anomaly Detection. They onboarded CloudEagle in just 30 minutes. The first thing it did was flag that double-billing discrepancy, an error that their standard financial systems couldn't catch. The Wefunder Win: 💸 $400K+ in savings realized immediately. ⏱️ 1,530 hours/year saved by ditching the manual spreadsheets. ✅ Zero surprises from vendors, thanks to real-time financial integration. "CloudEagle simplified our SaaS spend management, uncovering spending discrepancies that went unnoticed by our previous financial systems." — Sophie Wang, Director of Finance, Wefunder. If your current setup relies on manual checks and gives you zero warnings for massive vendor errors, how much money is slipping through the cracks?

🚨 Breaking down the silent risk most enterprises overlook: Privilege Creep. In her latest Forbes article, Nidhi Jain, CEO of CloudEagle.ai, covers how excessive employee access quietly grows into enterprise-wide exposure and why AI-powered governance is the only sustainable fix. 👉 Read the full piece and see if your access strategy is keeping up with your SaaS and AI landscape.

Over the past few months, one topic has come up in almost every discussion with CIOs and CISOs: the hidden risks that live inside organizations. We’ve spent years improving perimeter security, but somewhere along the way, access inside the walls became harder to manage. That’s how privilege creep grows quietly. An employee changes roles, joins a new project, or simply stays long enough to collect extra permissions. Over time, those small changes add up to a much larger risk surface that no one’s watching closely enough. At CloudEagle.ai, our 2025 Identity Governance Report found that 1 in 2 employees still retain excessive privileges. Only 5% of enterprises enforce strict least-privilege policies. Those numbers say a lot about how modern enterprises have outgrown manual access reviews and quarterly spreadsheets. That’s what I’ve written about in my latest Forbes Technology Council article: “Privilege Creep: The Silent Risk Lurking in Your Workforce.” It explores how continuous, AI-powered governance can help enterprises detect and correct access issues before they become incidents, in a more proactive way to manage risk in a world where SaaS, AI, and human access overlap more every day. If you’re leading IT, security, or compliance today, this might give you something to think about. Read it and see if your team’s access strategy reflects how fast your environment is evolving.

If your 2024 budget forecast was wrong, your 2025 forecast is already obsolete. ⚠️ Stop trying to plan your future spending by staring at spreadsheets from the past! The truth? Based on last year's data, budgeting for SaaS is a guaranteed path to surprise overages. You need to be proactive, not reactive. The Fix? Forecasting with Real Data: Budgeting should be a breeze. CloudEagle gives Finance and IT the real-time, user-level spend and usage data they need. 💸 No More Surprises: Set specific budget caps on huge vendors (like AWS or Segment). Get a real-time alert before you cross the line. Say goodbye to Q4 overage panic! 🔮 Predictive Power: Easily forecast next year's cost based on actual licenses provisioned and current spend per license. 🤝 Smarter Scaling: Instantly know the Cost Per Employee (CPE) for every department. When a new engineer joins, you know exactly how much software to budget. Ready to control your spending future instead of just reacting to it? Check out a quick demo and see how simple real-time SaaS forecasting can be. 👇 See the real-time data in action: Link in comments https://lnkd.in/ghetZXJk

What's worse than paying for unused software? Paying for Shadow IT that you don't even know exists! 👻 The team at Rec Room knew unsanctioned (including free) apps were running wild, creating massive security and compliance headaches. They were flying completely blind. Rec Room needed to stop the uncontrolled growth of its SaaS stack. Their biggest challenge wasn't just the paid tools; it was knowing which free apps were in use and who was using them. Zero visibility meant massive risk. The CloudEagle.ai Play: We integrated CloudEagle with their SSO and financial systems in just 30 minutes to give them immediate clarity: 🔵 Uncovered the "Free" Risk: We instantly exposed all the hidden, free apps their teams were using without IT knowledge. 🔵 Killed the Duplicates: They used this new visibility to clean up redundant applications with overlapping functions. 🔵 Proactive Alerts: Now they get immediate warnings when a new unsanctioned app enters the system, stopping Shadow IT in its tracks! Customer Quote: "Thanks to CloudEagle, we now have a comprehensive view of our SaaS stack. The platform made it easier to identify free apps, and promptly sends alerts after detecting unsanctioned apps..." — Devin Murphy, Senior Accounting Manager, Rec Room. The results speak for themselves: ✅ $1,253,000 in savings realized. ✅ 1,260 hours/year saved in SaaS management. ✅ Complete elimination of Shadow IT proliferation. Tired of managing a stack you can't even see?

Four years of CloudEagle! 💙 What started as Nidhi Jain’s vision to solve the chaos in SaaS buying has grown into a SaaS governance platform trusted by global IT, finance, and procurement teams. Her reflections capture the lessons that shaped who we are today. Read and share your takeaways:
Save 30% on software spend and make SaaS governance a breeze. CloudEagle.ai| Box & ServiceNow | Ex- Goldman Sachs | Berkeley MBA
Four Years!!! Four years ago, I left a comfortable job to solve a problem I had seen repeat itself across every company I’d ever worked with. For 25 years, I was surrounded by CIOs and IT teams: the people who keep organizations running quietly in the background, yet are often treated as cost centers. Software buying was no longer centralized. Anyone with a credit card could purchase a SaaS app, while finance, IT, and procurement teams were still being held accountable for costs, renewals, and compliance. I’d seen it firsthand, multiple teams using the same app without the CIO even knowing. That lack of visibility, that chaos in distributed buying, was the opportunity. It was 2021, mid-pandemic. I told myself, “If I don’t do it now, I will never do it?” So I did. The first year was the hardest. We sold our first deal on Figma. “How are we going to execute this?” I remember asking myself. A conversation with a customer or teammate’s belief always pulled me through. A few lessons became anchors while building CloudEagle.ai: → Execution beats potential. You don’t need unicorns, but people who show up and deliver. → Meetings should be conducted to unblock people, not to ask for updates. → Culture is built quietly through consistency, not slogans. → Great people don’t need convincing; they need trust. If I could go back, I’d hire our HR lead sooner and invest earlier in nearshore teams. Hiring strong people isn’t a stage of growth; it’s what enables it. For whoever’s reading this, whether you’re a founder, leader, or builder: → Start before you feel ready. Clarity comes from action. → Hire for ownership and dedication, not titles. → Learn faster than the market changes. → Celebrate the small wins; they’ll carry you through the hard ones. → And most of all, don’t wait for the perfect moment. It rarely comes. Here’s to the next four years… of asking better questions, solving harder problems, and continuing to build something that lasts.
