“Thanks to its excellent user interface, visualizing SaaS has become much easier.”

4.0
Mar 30, 2026
We adopted this solution to reduce the operational burden of managing SaaS accounts, and it has enabled centralized visibility into the SaaS applications used by each individual user. In addition, we can now clearly see who is accessing which services, as well as the frequency of access to prohibited services, which has helped strengthen our overall IT security posture. For application inventory purposes, the lack of integration with the communication tools we use internally means we need to consider alternative methods. From a security configuration perspective, it would be even more beneficial if application usage permissions could be configured on a per-user basis.

CRITICAL

“Improved Security and Usability Offset Limitations in Permission Customization”

3.0
Apr 21, 2026
We deployed Josys to migrate the operational complexities associated with our rapidly expanding SaaS ecosystem and device fleet, particularly during employee onboarding and offboarding. Prior to Josys, our asset data was heavily siloed across disparate spreadsheets. The platform has successfully driven the centralization of this critical data. From a security standpoint, the impact has been substantial; it effectively mitigates the risk of "orphaned" accounts by ensuring rigorous and consistent de-provisioning. Furthermore, the highly intuitive user interface significantly reduces the learning curve, empowering non-IT personnel to manage operations efficiently. While the core functionality is exceptional, the current granularity of role-based access controls could be enhanced. Introducing more flexible permission settings in future releases would undoubtedly elevate my overall rating to a perfect 5

Josys SaaS Management Likes & Dislikes

Like

First, the user interface is excellent. It is designed to be highly user-friendly, featuring a clear layout that is easy to navigate even for those without technical expertise, intuitive controls, and a member list function that allows users to view a list of applications currently in use. Second, the scope of shadow TI detection is extremely broad. Since it can detect and list SaaS applications with access records at either the application or member level, it makes it easy to visualize the status of shadow IT. Third, this service excels in scalability and the ability to adapt and improve. Support responses are prompt, and new features are released frequently. Most importantly, the service provides comprehensive support, including flexible proposals tailored to our business needs and the active incorporation of feedback. Since implementation, the aspect we are most satisfied with is, without a doubt, the thorough follow-up support.

Like

・It's very user-friendly and requires almost no training to start using it effectively. ・It centralizes both SaaS accounts and device inventory in a single dashboard. ・Being able to provision and de-provision multiple SaaS accounts with just a few clicks is a game changer.

Like

1. Integrated Management: The ability to link and manage three core data points: member profiles, utilized devices, and active applications. 2. Educational Support: Access to regular seminars and workshops on information management, enabling the development of strategies aligned with current global trends. 3. Operational Efficiency: A robust feature set designed to reduce manual workload, including alert configurations and automated workflow processing.

Dislike

The first issue is that user-level approval can't be granted for unregistered apps. Since some applications grant access permissions based on departments or users, being able to approve access on a user-by-user basis rather than by applications would make it easier to distinguish between authorized and shadow IT. The second issue concerns app integration. Even for apps currently in use, integration capabilities vary deoending on the subscription plan, so while I recognize that technical challenges make this difficult to imolement, the system would become much easier to use if aoo integration were possible regardless of the subscription plan. The third point concerns the communication tools supported for inventory management. Since the communication tools our company management feature, we have been unable to fully implement it due to difficulties in gaining internal adoption. We believe that expanding the range of communication tools supported for inventory management would help revitalize the inventory management process.

Dislike

・Limited flexibility in permission settings  The current options for defining user roles are too broad and need more customization ・Need for more granular access control  It would be better if we could set specific read-only permissions or restrict access by department ・Difficulty in delegating tasks  The lack of detailed permissions makes it hard to delegate specific tasks to other team members without giving them too much authority

Dislike

1. Feature Realignment: Occasional discrepancies exist between the intended use cases of new features and the practical realities of day-to-day information management. 2. Minor Functional Gaps: There are minor limitations in ledger management and filtering functions where specific data points may be inaccessible or insufficiently handled. I consider these issues non-critical, as they are systematically relayed to the development team through customer support feedback loops for ongoing optimization.

    Automated App Discovery and Device Alerts Stand Out in Josys Platform

    4.0
    Mar 31, 2026
    We are overall satisfied with Josys for managing pur SaaS systems and IT assets. While we encountered some technical limitations - for examples, automatic account creation for slack is restricted depending on the subscription plan (due to slack's own API constraints) - the plat form remains highly effective for other core tasks. Aside from the minor limitation, it has significantly streamlined our onboarding and off boarding workflows
