"We're stoked with Subble. It's open in my browser every day and the whole team is across it. It's already saved us money and time. When licence requests come through to the team, we can quickly check what is not being used so we can re-allocate without additional expense."

"Subble has given us the evidence to go back to staff and say, we've removed that license because you're not actively using it. That visibility was the important piece we were missing."
