Sastrify review (2026): features, pros and cons, and what to check before you buy
German SaaS procurement and management platform combining app discovery, renewals, intake workflows and contract price benchmarking.
Acquired: Acquired by Deel (announced May 5, 2026, closed end of April). Deel says the business will run under its Deel IT brand.
Our take for buyers
Sastrify is no longer independent. Deel announced the acquisition on May 5, 2026, with the deal closing at the end of April, and says the business will run under its Deel IT brand. For a buyer, that is the first thing to clarify: who is the contracting party, and what happens to the roadmap. The platform itself combines app discovery, renewals, intake workflows and contract price benchmarking, with German and English supported.
It suits European mid-market IT, finance and procurement teams that want discovery plus negotiation support in one vendor. G2 shows 4.5 out of 5 from 88 reviews, with praise for responsive support. A G2 comparison scores it lower on SaaS utilization tracking than some rivals, 7.7 against 8.9, so test that area closely.
Pros
- Responsive support.
- Easy renewals and software management.
- Cost savings.
Cons
- Interface described as lean with room to improve (2021 Capterra review)
- Wish for more access to pricing data.
- Smaller review base and lower scores on SaaS utilization tracking than some rivals in G2 comparisons (7.7 vs 8.9)
- Best for
- European mid-market IT, finance and procurement teams (German and English supported)
- Starting price
- Contact sales
- G2 rating

Security, admin and compliance
The site shows a SOC badge without naming the type, a GDPR badge and a linked trust page. SSO, SCIM, audit logs, data residency and DPA terms are not published, so request them in writing. The homepage mentions support for DORA, NIS2 and AI Act audit preparation, which is a documentation feature and not a certification. Pricing is quote-only, with no contract terms published. Because Deel now owns the business, confirm the contracting entity, subprocessors and any planned migration to the Deel IT brand.

What to test in a Sastrify demo or trial
Start with discovery. Sastrify connects to your identity provider, browser and ERP, not to card issuing, so check that your own spend is actually visible through those sources. Then test the renewal alerts against real contracts due in the next two quarters. Ask to see the intake and approval workflow with a real purchase request, and the vendor risk assessments. The vendor claims benchmarks across 15,000+ vendors, so ask for examples in the software you actually buy. Reviewers also wish for more access to pricing data, so see what you can view yourself.
