Unobravo saved +500K euros on software, WithLess

Unobravo uses WithLess to streamline software procurement and maintain full visibility over their tech stack. After the first 12 months of active collaboration with WithLess, they reduced costs by over €500K and saved 100+ hours monthly on renewals and payments.

Intro

Fast growth often comes with hidden costs. Some say it is inevitable, but not for Unobravo. They knew that scaling their business should not mean losing control of their tech stack. That is why they started using WithLess.

WithLess gave them the visibility and structure they needed to stay ahead. By tracking usage, cutting waste, and creating a smarter process for software procurement, Unobravo turned what could have been a costly chaos into a competitive edge.

The result? €500K+ saved, 100+ hours reclaimed, and a software stack that grows as smartly as the company itself.

The challenge

For Unobravo, Europe’s fastest-growing mental health company, scaling fast meant their software stack grew just as quickly and not always in the most organized way.

New tools were introduced to support growth, but rapid expansion occasionally led to challenges in tracking and visibility. Ensuring that the tools in place were aligned with objectives and being used effectively became essential. There was a need to gain better clarity on the tools that truly supported their goals and optimize their investments.

“As we recognize the importance of balancing strategic goals with the necessary administrative tasks to maintain smooth operations, our team mainly focuses on growth and impactful initiatives,” says Tiziana Cannone, Chief Financial Officer of Unobravo. “We knew it was time to bring more structure to the process.”

Unobravo’s leadership did not wait for problems to escalate. They knew a proactive approach was smarter than playing catch-up later. They needed visibility into their software landscape and a clear, ongoing procurement process to manage it.

That is when they crossed paths with WithLess.

The solution

WithLess stepped in as Unobravo's behind-the-scenes software strategist, bringing clarity, structure, and control to their growing tech stack.

Instead of sifting through subscriptions and invoices to understand whether they were paying a fair price or using the features they were paying for, Unobravo gained a dedicated martech consultant with the tools, data, and expertise to turn confusion into clarity.

“WithLess helps us track software costs efficiently,” explains Tiziana Cannone, underlining the strategic approach of the tool. “They have built a system to make sure we have full visibility on all software purchases and renewals. We moved from reactive to proactive management, making unbiased decisions that serve our stakeholders' best interests.”

The process started with a comprehensive audit. Using advanced tracking and software mapping, WithLess identified duplicate, unused, and underutilized tools.

But it did not stop there.

WithLess established a continuous review system for Unobravo's software procurement, ensuring every renewal was intentional, every feature was justified, and no subscription slipped through the cracks.

From negotiating contracts to monitoring usage, WithLess became Unobravo’s agile procurement team, at a fraction of the cost of hiring one in-house.

The result

The impact was immediate, and massive. In a single year, WithLess redefined how Unobravo approaches software.

✔️ €500K+ saved through expert negotiations and optimized software management
✔️ Dozens of tools eliminated thanks to smarter renewals and the removal of duplicate/unused software.
✔️ 100+ hours saved every month on managing payments and renegotiations.

It was valuable time that Unobravo’s team got back to focus on growth.“I knew we would see cost savings, but I did not expect to get so much time back,” said Tiziana Cannone. “WithLess’s payment system and tracking tools did the heavy lifting for us.”

One unexpected benefit was the visibility gained. WithLess did not just deliver savings and control: Unobravo’s leadership team now has a clear view of their software stack.

As Tiziana Cannone notes, highlighting the company’s commitment to strive for effective, strategic, and rock-solid solutions: “After 12 months of working with WithLess, we saved over 500K euros through expert negotiations and optimized software management. WithLess gave us a new way to manage software: continuous tracking, smarter renewals, and no more surprises.”

‍WithLess helps companies take control of non-payroll spending with a centralized management platform, automated payments, and on-demand negotiation services. Our expert buyers secure better pricing on renewals, and we only charge a 30% success fee—meaning you only pay if you save.
