Sastrify is a B2B SaaS procurement platform that allows companies to keep track of their SaaS tool stack, discover the right tools for their businesses and save money on licenses and subscriptions.
Sastrify is establishing the agile process to buy software to minimize risks and maximize business outcomes.
Sastrify has made Sifted’s list of the best European start-up companies to work for and is on a mission to provide the right set of software, lightning-fast and at fair prices, to make companies successful.
We joined Sastrify’s Solar Flares Product and Tech team to serve as Interim Product Managers during a parental cover, aiming to automate visibility into inventory. We were part of a team of Front and Back-end Engineers, an Engineering Manager, and a UI/UX Designer.
Sastrify was also in the process of expanding the team and hiring a permanent Product Manager. Product People’s Interim Product Managers came in to fill the gap over the course of 6 months until they found and hired their amazing new PM, which we also helped onboard.
Within our mission, we were tasked with finding ways to automate the visibility of their B2B customer’s SaaS tool stack and increase the average Daily Active Users (DAUs) on the platform.
We integrated with Google Workspace, Xero, and Netsuite to enable B2B customers to discover their company SaaS tools with a click of a button instead of manually creating and uploading their SaaS tool stack during onboarding. This usually took several weeks before the integrations.
We brought a lot of value to Sastrify’s customer base as it saved time and allowed new and existing B2B customers to integrate with their existing accounting software. This set the groundwork for further accounting software integrations and the ability to update spend automatically from these integrations.
We have created and released User Roles on the platform that would give B2B customers complete control and flexibility on how their teams can contribute to their company’s tool stack and what level of visibility they would have (access to financial data, documents, contracts, etc.).
User Roles would also increase Sastrify’s daily average users whilst fostering and nurturing the deserved trust that Sastrify has built up with its B2B customers.
Product Managers at Sastrify have frequent interviews and testing sessions with customers, increasing the chances of reaching their well-defined outcomes with the building effort the teams embark on. Opportunity Solution Trees were kept up to date and formed part of our handover to the new Product Manager.
It's time to say goodbye.
While Product People's Interim Product Managers successfully led the mission, Sastrify has found a new permanent PM for the team. We welcomed them with a Handover Document and Miro board that Product People created. The well-detailed document contained all the necessary valuable information to help the new PM get up to speed immediately. Through more than 24 pages, every detail of the mission was covered:
Product People also prepared handover sessions for the new PM to discuss all topics and clear any doubts the new PM had. By holding several weekly sessions, Product People ensured that the new PM had quality deep dives into ongoing topics and extensive Q&A sessions. With the help of these sessions, the new PM could integrate into the team's complex projects at an impressive pace.
