See the latest November product updates for Ploy including: Okta & AD group manipulation, HRIS integrations and a new Shadow IT page
We started Ploy in April of this year with no customers, no product and no idea. Since then it has been an absolute rollercoaster to get to where we are today and we couldn't be more proud of the product and company we've built during this short 9 months (although it feels like it's been closer to 9 years!). We started out trying to build a SaaS shadow IT discovery platform and have finished the year with an end to end SaaS management solution helping modern IT orgs reign in their SaaS security, cost and operations.
We couldn't of done it without all the people and customers who have taken the time to jump on call with us, offer advice, suggestions and feedback that ultimately shaped the product and company to where we are today.
We've finished the year strong with a lot of new features and updates - let's dive straight into it
One of the most requested features we've received at Ploy has been the ability to ask custom questions on your surveys which we're very excited to announce has just been released
You can now ask your employee's pretty much any question you can think of to help ensure you have the right information when it comes to managing your SaaS:
You can now also 1-click save these responses to any field in your managed apps as well, streamlining your data collection efforts.
Part of our vision is to be able to automate as much as possible when it comes to managing your SaaS. Being able to manage group membership plays a big role in this vision which is why we're really excited to announce that we've added support for adding/removing users from groups in Okta and Microsoft Entra.
Customers are already using this alongside surveys to automate account provision and deprovisioning for SCIM enabled applications, saving IT teams hours a week (and $$$).
If you'd like to get setup with this feature, please don't hesitate to reachout.
When we started Ploy, this was the entire product. Now it's just one part of the Ploy platform.
With the addition of 'managed apps' coming out of beta, we're now able to properly transition the current apps page into a dedicated Shadow IT feature, making it ridiculously easy for you to quickly identify and investigate newly dedicated applications across your business.
As always, we're constantly adding new integrations to the platform. This month we've added two new HRIS integrations: BambooHR and Cezanne.
As always there's also been a whole heap of other new functionality added to the platform;
If you have any ideas about what you'd like to see in the platform next, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Alternatively if you're not a customer yet and want to find out more, we'd love to have a chat.
