Case Study: International Financial Management Services Company reclaims 2,791 inactive G Suite licenses and saves $250K annually with Flexera SaaS Manager

Optimizes Google G Suite Licensing for a Financial Management Enterprise

A global financial management services company that had recently standardized on Google G Suite after moving from Box needed to quantify how many new G Suite licenses it actually required. The firm expected to add about 200 licenses but lacked accurate adoption and activity data to make that decision.

Using Flexera SaaS Manager with Google G Suite DirectConnect to capture in‑app activity over the monitoring period, Flexera found 10,892 licensed G Suite accounts and identified 2,791 (25%) with no recorded activity. At $12 per account per month, reclaiming inactive seats represented a potential >$300,000 annual reduction in spend and, after reallocating roughly 200 licenses, an estimated net savings of about $250,000 per year (note: not all inactive accounts may be reclaimable).
