Top 7 Torii Alternatives in 2024

Torii is a SaaS management platform (SMP) that helps organizations manage their SaaS stack. It is used by some well-known companies such as Wix, Fiverr, and Instacart, but it doesn't mean it is the right fit for every company.However, Torii has many limitations, but the major reason organizations may shy from going with it is the low number of direct integrations.

This means you may not get detailed insight into all the applications in your SaaS stack. Direct integration is required with an application to fetch granular-level information about applications, such as app usage.

In this post, we will discuss the top 8 Torii alternatives. If you’re looking for other options for Torii to manage and optimize your SaaS stack, this post is for you. But before discussing the alternatives, let’s first learn more about Torii.

Key Features of Torii

• Gives complete visibility of SaaS applications in one place. It helps you see how different applications are used, to whom the licenses have been allocated, and many more granular-level insights about applications.
• Simple and intuitive to use, which helps to get acquainted with it quickly.
• Torii automates repetitive IT tasks, such as license renewal, onboarding employees, etc.
• Helps you stay compliant; alerts you about non-compliant apps, and automates offboarding to eliminate the risk of data breach from ex-employees.
• Optimize SaaS spending by eliminating duplicate apps and minimizing the risks associated with shadow IT.

Drawbacks of Torii

• Limitations in discovery & administration: Torii has 150+ direct app integrations. Limited integrations mean fewer data points. On the administration front, multiple instances cannot be managed, and a lack of group automation means a lot of manual tasks.
• Security and governance: Torii does not have a dedicated SaaS security module to monitor and prevent app breaches. On top of this, you can’t evaluate risk scores, and threat levels and not perform access reviews too.
• Partial Spend analysis: Managing spends happens to be a bit of a challenge as Torii doesn’t help with cost vs spend data, chargeback data, and real-time license forecasting.

Now, let’s see alternatives of Torii.
