SmartFlow for SaaS
Detect credential sharing
SmartFlow for SaaS provides a single solution to track local, hybrid and hosted software usage, identify infringers and transform them into paying customers. Discover our next-level SaaS solutions for credential sharing detection and multi-deployment tracking.
Not just on-premise software
In the past, high-value software meant on-premise deployment. Today, high-value software deployed in the cloud or as hybrid solutions faces new threats, and there are new challenges to tracking and proving software usage.
Credential sharing poses a significant risk to companies who have developed sophisticated, high-value products and offered them on a subscription basis. The risk of reputational damage, customer dissatisfaction and unfair competition is real.
That’s why SmartFlow has evolved next-level solutions to mitigate the threats facing the industry today.
Multi-deployment tracking
Find out who is using your software – whether it is deployed in the cloud, hybrid or on-premise.
SmartFlow delivers unique data points and advanced telemetry data to track events and pinpoint usage. With advanced business logic, SmartFlow can reveal and help to identify infringing machines and organizations.
With highly detailed usage data and a very low false positive rate, you can pinpoint infringers and take effective action.
Identify unauthorized usage
Companies using in-house compliance solutions struggle with identification. And without the ability to pinpoint who is using a particular account login, it becomes impossible to prove that the usage was unauthorized.
SmartFlow solves the challenge of credential sharing by detecting and geolocating precisely exactly how and where your software is being used, linking infringing machines to organizations and identifying those organizations.
SmartFlow’s correlation engine uses sophisticated business logic to auto-match data points to organizations. Usage data can be compared with license data and used to compel non-compliant organizations to pay for their software usage.
Find, identify and convert more license infringements
Identify, prove and take action on credential sharing along with other unlicensed software usage events. SmartFlow helps you uncover unlicensed usage of enterprise and SaaS software anywhere in the world. Learn more about our next-level solutions.
Detect credential sharing
SmartFlow solves the challenge of determining where and when account credentials are used by collecting advanced telemetry data and multiple unique data fields.
SmartFlow maps incoming data to detect all usage of the credentials worldwide. It leverages VPN detection and uses advanced business logic to distinguish software usage by the named user from unauthorized usage events.
The results are visualized and potential license revenue is calculated for case prioritization. This enables compliance teams to identify, prove and take action on credential sharing along with other unlicensed software usage events.
Protect paying customers
Protect your legal customers, your industry and your bottom line.
Illegal software use not only leads to unfair competition and increased risk, it can severely impact your company’s profitability. Nonetheless, many software vendors are hesitant to take action on unlicensed usage for fear of reputational damage and the chance of falsely accusing a legitimate customer.
SmartFlow delivers accurate results on software usage, enabling teams to take action on unlicensed usage without concerns about alienating legal customers.
SmartFlow offers high detection rates, low restrictions for users and very low false positive rates.
Convert SaaS misuse into revenue
Because it provides such accurate usage data, and due to how it tracks multiple data points, SmartFlow gets you the proof you need to persuade unlicensed organizations to pay for their usage, or take legal action if necessary.
Where other approaches focus on issuing takedown notices, SmartFlow has a non-punitive approach: to monetize unauthorized usage by transforming non-compliance into additional license sales.
By converting infringement into licensed customers, SmartFlow helps to protect your brand reputation, gain new customers and recover more sales revenue.
