Case Study: Lemon.io saves $365,000 on SaaS and cloud spend with Spendbase

Lemon.io - Customer Case Study

Lemon.io, a leading platform for hiring startup tech talent, needed to reduce its significant software costs, particularly for essential tools like Slack and Atlassian. As an engineering-first company, these cloud and SaaS expenses were a major constraint on their budget. They engaged Spendbase to help optimize their spending without having to switch from their preferred software providers.

Spendbase implemented a smarter licensing strategy for Google Workspace by splitting users into two cohorts, reducing the subscription level for nearly half of the employees. The vendor also secured $100,000 in Google Cloud Platform credits for the customer and used their SaaS management platform to audit subscriptions. As a result, Lemon.io saved $365,000, achieved a 50% cost reduction on Atlassian products, and optimized Slack for a 25% reduction, all without changing vendors.
