May 12, 2026 – Deel (CEO: Alex Bouaziz), an all-in-one HR and payroll platform for global teams, announced the enhancement of its enterprise software management capabilities, launching a platform that centralizes everything from license procurement to renewal management and IT cost optimization. Concurrently, Deel announced the acquisition of Sastrify, a SaaS procurement and management platform. Sastrify helps companies visualize software usage and costs, optimizing SaaS procurement and license management. This acquisition marks Deel's 14th, further strengthening its support for managing and operating increasingly complex enterprise IT environments.
Sastrify was founded by Sven Lackinger and Maximilian Messing. Both have consistently focused on solving challenges associated with large-scale SaaS procurement. They possess deep insights into the problems companies face, such as complexity in SaaS procurement, hidden costs, fragmented workflows, and often overlooked contract renewals. Deel will integrate the expertise of the entire Sastrify team into its platform, combining more resources and global reach to build full-stack solutions for its customers.
The importance of this acquisition lies in the fact that software costs are one of the fastest-growing yet least understood expenditure items for companies. Furthermore, with the rapid increase in AI tools, these costs could double in the future.
Currently, many companies still manage contracts with spreadsheets, struggle with renewals, and oversee tools across multiple fragmented systems. Procurement information resides in one place, usage data in another, often preventing a holistic view until problems become apparent.
Starting this quarter, Deel IT will provide a unified environment for companies to visualize their software usage, spending, and renewal timings. This will enable IT teams to not only review costs but also make more strategic decisions, such as reducing unused licenses (Shelfware), preventing unexpected auto-renewals, and negotiating contracts under more favorable terms.
Deel IT is evolving into a comprehensive platform that provides hardware and software management, security, IT operations, as well as visibility, control, and cost optimization. Additionally, 24/7 support is provided.
