I’ve been looking for a tool that would let me and my team search across SaaS services we subscribe to.
For example, our team uses Google Drive, but teams we work with use Dropbox sometimes. Similarly with Github, Figment, Azure, Notion (some use Confluence) and a few other tools. It’s an absolute pain to curate (we’ve tried) and search for things across them.
We haven’t been able to find any commercial tools that fit the bill, and CTO insists that because we deal with sensitive data, a trusted/certified vendor (based on industry standards for data protection) is needed. No such vendors found.
I convinced him that an open-source tool, with a security audit (we have a great security team that routinely tracks down vulnerabilities in popular tools) is also passable.
I understand this would be very useful for a lot of people outside our company.
- If something like this exists, and someone here knows about it, please point me towards it. I’d be so grateful and will buy you a coffee.
- If a simpler version of this exists, I have approval to contribute to the project and possibly bring some more dedicated man hours from the company.
- If it does not exist, I’m also willing to help start/maintain such an open source project. We agree it’s worth pursuing. If you’re interested, please let me know in the comments or through email.
