For small and mid-sized corporations that wants a better overview without too much hassle in setting up a complex system, Substly is great! Also Substly has made budgeting easier for us and helped us improve our offboarding processes. If you are looking for a SaaS management tool with integrations to every vendor on earth, there might be other solutions that would fit your scope better.
