"The whole process for identifying and documenting open source licenses, and then providing them to customers, was awful for everyone involved. And, at Applause, it was a major challenge to continuously keep the information up to date and accurate."
"We have a pretty complex SaaS system with dozens of microservices spread over many repos and developed in five primary languages using many open source packages."
"When I found FOSSA, I thought it sounded too good to be true — I had never heard of a solution that could do this. During our free trial, the FOSSA app found all the dependencies and licenses. The team was also great to work with! They were always incredibly responsive when we had questions or concerns during the onboarding process."
"Our largest customers and partners want proof of our compliance with open source licenses. The fact that FOSSA lets us easily export and host that information as a nice report has been extremely useful."
"This is a messy and tricky area. FOSSA allowed us to explain the decisions we made during the compliance process, and we always had an audit trail to refer back to."
"It saves us so much time and pain since we don’t have to chase down everyone every quarter to get things lined up. Now, I have continual review of all our OSS licenses and a system to accurately track and report on them. And, even better, FOSSA eliminates the manual process to create the comprehensive list."
