Which SaaS applications can I manage with Cloud Manager?
Cloud Manager includes a growing number of connectors to SaaS applications, including: Microsoft 365 (including Exchange, SharePoint, Teams, Skype for Business, etc), Microsoft PowerBI, Microsoft Graph, Microsoft Endpoint Manager (including Intune), Microsoft Azure, Box, DocuSign, Dropbox, G Suite, QuickBooks Online, Slack, and WebEx.
Each includes the capability to establish a persistent connection with the application, eliminating the need to log in/out across applications. Each also includes a set of PowerShell cmdlets that can be run as-is from the SkyCommand Console or built into single commands and workflows that can be run from the Command Center. These enable IT service providers to manage SaaS applications through a single interface.

How does Cloud Manager help reduce support costs for Microsoft 365 and other SaaS apps?
A typical IT provider today manages far more customers with far more apps in the cloud making IT administration more complex and insecure than ever. For IT Providers administering Office 365 and other Microsoft services, they often must hop between numerous admin portals, point solutions, and PowerShell – driving up inefficiency and support costs. While the administration portals are useful for managing single tenants, they are not designed for MSPs to effectively monitor, manage, and report on multiple tenants or for frontline Help Desk workers to efficiently navigate and easily perform specific actions in the context of service support.
Cloud Manager has been designed to help partners reduce support costs and scale cloud management of their Microsoft and non-Microsoft services. Cloud Manager supports a depth of Microsoft services from core productivity workloads (ie. Exchange, Teams, SharePoint, etc) to security and compliance to endpoint management. With a centralized portal for MSPs to view and act upon all customers’ applications, Cloud Manager empowers partners’ Help Desk to resolve tickets right the first time, using pre-published automation where they can be safely, efficiently and consistently executed through an easy-to-use GUI without needing any PowerShell skills. This enables you to improve first call resolution rates, reduce errors and escalations, improve customer experience, and automate cloud management for your organization.
What’s the difference between the Command Center and WorkBench in Cloud Manager?
The Command Center and WorkBench are core pieces of technology in Cloud Manager. The Command Center is a single pane management experience that the entire help desk team can use to run automation for thousands of IT tasks and workflows. The Workbench is an IDE editor for creating, sharing, reusing, and managing PowerShell scripts across engineers. If published, these commands can be run without code by any user from the Command Center.
