Block 64 vs SpendVera

Block 64 discovers SaaS applications, tracks their usage, and connects subscriptions with users, departments, and costs. Its continuously updated inventory can identify overlapping apps, inactive users, and subscriptions that appear unused or wasted. Usage and ownership tracking shows how often applications are used and which teams hold subscriptions, supporting spend and renewal reviews and visibility into shadow IT. Discovery options include a Windows agentless application, a virtual appliance for persistent monitoring, and a remote agent for remote or Zero Trust environments. The maker says it connects to 18 SaaS platforms, including AWS, Azure, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Entra ID, Okta, Slack, Atlassian, Jamf Pro, BambooHR, and Zoom; Salesforce and Dropbox are described as coming soon. Integrations are read-only, and data is encrypted in transit and at rest. The company says it is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant, and collects metadata rather than sensitive business data or PII. Block 64 also combines software, SaaS, cloud, hardware, and licensing visibility. Starter costs $349 a month, billed annually, for up to 500 devices and one collector. Pro is $749 a month, billed annually, for up to 1,000 devices and five collectors.

SpendVera is a web platform for managing subscription spending, contracts, budgets, and renewals, designed for CFO, controlling, and IT leadership. It brings subscription ownership and lifecycle timing together with budget context, spend trends, and forecasts. Renewal deadlines and contract states can be tracked by owner, while role-based access separates analysis, approval, and administration. The platform distinguishes used from unused licenses and prioritizes possible savings using spend structure, usage patterns, and contract data. Decisions, lifecycle changes, ownership transitions, and contract or spend-related updates are historically traceable for internal controls. SpendVera describes identifiable savings potential of 30% and more, but says actual results depend on baseline maturity, data quality, and execution speed; it does not guarantee fixed percentages. Teams can start through the app without a required demo. The free plan covers up to 10 subscriptions. Growth costs €29 a month and covers up to 50 subscriptions; Scale costs €149 a month and includes unlimited subscriptions.
