Modern IT teams are dealing with incredible tool fragmentation. Core IT tools such as Okta, JAMF, Active Directory, Company-wide tools such as Slack, Zoom and Office365, and a never ending list of function specific SaaS tools like Salesforce, Asana, and Airtable. IT teams need to keep track of 10s to 100s of tools.
But it’s not just about the number of tools. It's also about how complex the core IT tools are, and how different IT tools interact—intricate webs of employees, former employees, contractors, apps, groups, and channels. This creates an environment where it’s hard to keep track of everything across the entire IT estate—a visibility problem.
And a lack of visibility results in pervasive gaps. People have access to tools, groups and channels they shouldn't. Or people who should have access don't. There are compliance and device security gaps. Or your MDM and AV solutions are telling you different things about the same devices and you don’t know what to believe. And scores of unused licenses.

For cross-tool visibility, IT teams need an IT graph: Real-time, fine-grained data from every tool, stitched together in a single pane of glass.
And that’s exactly what Stitchflow provides. Stitchflow correlates and normalizes cross-tool IT data with unmatched breadth of endpoint coverage across more than 50 IT specific tools. We automatically map relationships between tools and give IT teams 360 visibility across their entire IT environment.
The benefits Stitchflow enables:
Visibility, cost and security peace of mind
The ability to detect and monitor any gaps in user access, resource drift, compliance and SaaS app usage
Ability to cross-reference and reconcile data between tools that don’t traditionally speak with each other (e.g., Okta and Active Directory, MDMs and IDPs)
Operational Efficiency
Immediate comprehension of distributed context without spreadsheets and VLOOKUPs reconciling data manually across systems
Immediate single-click actions in multiple tools vs. having to log in to numerous UIs to perform the simplest tasks
Proactive vs. reactive service
Ability to be proactive because you can act on changes in the underlying data vs. waiting for a ticket to come in
Better ML applied on the state of all relevant end user data vs. just the ticket title and body
Stitchflow enables these benefits with a solution purpose built to give IT teams 360 visibility across their entire environment.
The components of the Stitchflow platform are:
Data pipelines: ETL built by the Stitchflow team for every important Core IT tool, Company wide tool and SaaS application. Requiring just a one-click connect, each integration is synched with live data and has incredible depth, often synching more than 100 data and action end points per tool.
IT Graph: A real-time graph connecting all of a company’s IT resources across users, devices, permissions, resources like channels and groups. The IT graph also has fine-grained RBAC, and teams can control access to data fields and actions on an individual or group basis.
Visibility: Live boards that stitch together data from any combination of data fields across any tools for instant analyses. Coupled with federated search across all of your IT data and detailed filters, any IT analysis across any combination of tools and conditions can be conducted instantly.
Actions: Stitchflow also enables easy actions and remediation. Teams can share live boards and download CSVs, take single actions on any data field from any tool, or even bulk-remediate filtered data conditions across multiple records with just one click.
Proactive Protection:
Once tools are connected, Stitchflow detects gaps across your environment for you. With more than 100+ automated checks across employee management, resource drift, security and compliance and application usage, Stitchflow identifies active gaps in your environment that you can remediate with a single click.
We check for gaps in the following categories:

Ad-hoc analyses:
Stitchflow also supports ad-hoc analyses where teams can find any information they need instantly across every tool without spreadsheets or manual grunt-work. With more than 60 templates for every common IT use case from onboarding/offboarding to license management, IT teams can build any view required to instantly address their need, and then take action from the same single pane of glass.
More than 60 templates across all connected tools across the following categories:
Employee management
Onboarding/Offboarding
License Management
Groups Management
Device Management
Compliance
The Stitchflow team has built connectors for the following Core IT tools, Company wide tools and SaaS applications. Requiring just a one-click connect, each integration is synched with live data and has incredible depth, often synching more than 100 data and action end points per tool. The Stitchflow team will continue to actively add new integrations so if something is missing, just let us know!
Our pilot is free and commitment-light, requiring no set-up; All you have to do is authenticate into your tools and Stitchflow generates a gap analysis.
30-minute tool connection call
In a 30 minute guided call, we connect your tools with 1-click through OAuth or API keys from service or admin accounts. Stitchflow has created native integrations into every tool and requires no agents, no set-up or complex data migration.
Preliminary report and prioritization
Once your tools are connected, Stitchflow synchs and keeps all of your data up to date, normalizes and joins your data to create your unique IT graph. We then apply more than 100 tests across employee management, resource drift, compliance, security and application usage. We then prioritize your gaps to focus on the highest impact issues.
Remediation, continuous monitoring and ROI assessment
With Stitchflow you can remediate issues directly in the tool in bulk without having to take cumbersome manual steps in multiple tools. We continuously monitor the gaps and also assess the ROI that you were able to instantly realize in your environment on a gap by gap basis.
The typical impact you should expect to see from the free gap assessment and remediation is:
Visibility
50-100 stray user accounts fixed/organization initially, followed by 5-10/week
25-50 device and admin security issues addressed/organization
3-5 analyses/org/week saved per week, translating to time savings of 15-20 hours/org/week
Bulk actions
Average of 2 bulk action/week saving 5-10 hours/week
Deprovisioning users, unassigning licenses, adding users to groups, etc
Cost and resource gaps
>50 licenses removed/org
100s of drifted group and security issues addressed
30 IT teams from incredible companies have been using Stitchflow since May and are seeing daily value - hours saved every week in spreadsheets, quick identification of gaps in their environments, and the ability to rectify painful issues in bulk.
