Harmony Application Management gives IT and finance teams a unified view of every application in use across the organization: who’s using them, what they cost, what the contracts say, and when renewals are due, with apps discovered automatically or added manually. ### How does Harmony discover applications across the organization? Harmony automatically discovers applications by integrating with your existing identity, endpoint management, and SaaS management platforms, building a continuously updated inventory that covers ownership, user assignments, licensing, usage, spend, renewals, and security context. Supported integrations include Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, JumpCloud, Microsoft Intune, Jamf, Kandji, NinjaOne, Torii, Zluri, Zylo, and many more. ### Can Harmony detect shadow IT or unused applications? Yes. Harmony continuously analyzes application usage to identify underutilized, unmanaged, and risky applications: inactive apps with no recent employee activity, shadow apps discovered on endpoints but not managed through your identity provider, orphaned apps with no assigned owners or users, ghost apps with active contracts but no usage, and impaired apps experiencing outages. With a single click, IT teams can drill into each category, investigate the affected applications, and take action to reduce software spend and strengthen security. ### Does Harmony track application contracts and renewal dates? Yes. Every application has a dedicated Contracts tab that adapts to how you pay for software - seat-based, flat fee, usage-based, or a custom model - and automatically calculates total contract value. A 12-month Renewals Calendar surfaces renewal count and dollar value by month, so you always know what’s coming up and what it will cost. ### How does Harmony track compliance certifications for applications? Harmony tracks compliance certifications such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS per application, with AI pre-population that auto-scans vendor websites to pre-fill known certifications, fully editable by the admin. ### What are the main benefits of Harmony Application Management? Harmony Application Management gives IT and finance one place to control software spend, bringing together visibility from multiple sources, direct app integrations, usage, spend per app, and contract management. Inactive Apps and Shadow Apps widgets surface waste and unsanctioned tools immediately, and the 12-month Renewals Calendar prevents surprise auto-renewals. AI pre-population of compliance certifications also saves teams from manually chasing vendor security documentation.
