Our take
Modern companies leverage many different SaaS platforms to provide their staff with the tools they need to stay productive, but managing this can be a convoluted process. It can be complicated to govern software permissions, compliance, and licenses for so many employees, with most businesses relying on expensive, time-consuming, and manual SaaS management workflows.
Lumos provides a unified employee identity platform & company app store, allowing businesses to manage their SaaS licenses and permissions, facilitate rapid access reviews, and serve access ticketing within the same platform. The company tackles these challenges through an automated review process of self-serve access tickets, preventing the need for manual approval of permissions, and ultimately ensuring compliance whilst saving time, and money, and preventing wasted SaaS subscriptions.
Most businesses already have SaaS management systems in place, but Lumos shows the potential to disrupt the market through its self-serve, automated approach. Furthermore, the platform also stands out with its unified approach to SaaS management, identity governance, and access ticketing, preventing businesses from having to rely on multiple solution platforms.
