CIO at a consultancy with 201-500 employees
Experienced easy deployment and stable performance but user support needs improvement
The most valuable features are that BetterCloud had a much more sophisticated workflow management toolset than Google itself. It was easy to build onboarding and offboarding workflows, which could handle the desired complexity versus out-of-the-box Google. BetterCloud allowed us to reallocate storage so all files created by a departing member would get reallocated to the manager, thus retaining access. BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment. BetterCloud now offers SaaS platform tracking capabilities, a key, previously missing feature.

Centralized SaaS oversight has reduced redundant applications and simplified license management
The best features Zylo offers include the new MCP server and the AI feature, which makes managing over 500 applications much easier, especially if there are 1500 to 1600 applications with its help in identifying redundancy. The AI feature, referred to as Clarity in Zylo, helps by allowing me to inquire about any redundant applications, specifically within the 500 applications I manage.

Pros

"BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment."
"You simply cannot use Google Apps without it, so it's a no brainer."
"The best features Zylo offers include the new MCP server and the AI feature, which makes managing over 500 applications much easier, especially if there are 1500 to 1600 applications with its help in identifying redundancy."
 

Cons

"The account support team was weak in engagement and communication, contributing to the decision to move to more comprehensive solutions."
"Would love for it to be able to replace our SSO as well as provide connectivity and the same level of automation to our other SaaS products."
"The AI feature is not changing anything significant. For instance, it cannot update fields automatically, which means I still have to do it manually, but overall, that is my only concern."
