2024 Guide to Tool Consolidation in Coda

How to save money and coordination costs by consolidating dozens of apps into Coda.

The average SaaS portfolio has ballooned to 371 apps, according to Productiv’s State of SaaS

report⁠

. CIOs, CTOs, and IT leaders are facing immense pressure to cut software spend and coordination costs across their organizations, while at the same time elevating their team’s output. The key to getting things under control is consolidation; finding tools that have the flexibility and power to do many things, so you can eliminate niche ones with a poor return on investment.

Coda is an all-in-one collaborative workspace that brings your data, words, and workflows together in one place. Because of its flexibility, it can easily enhance, reduce, and replace dozens of tools for your team, from docs and spreadsheets to project trackers, wikis, and CRMs.

In this guide we’re sharing what we’ve learned from helping thousands of teams like yours consolidate their tools into Coda, so you too can benefit from a more cost- and time-efficient SaaS portfolio.

Every time someone wants to bring on a new software vendor, our procurement team asks: ‘Could this be done in Coda instead?’

Why consolidate with Coda?

We get it—you have lots of tools you like (or do the job “well enough”). So why consolidate with Coda?

One tool, many use cases. Coda is a flexible platform that lets you bring words, data, teams, and workflows all together in one place. That means anyone on your team can create fully customized docs that are as powerful as apps—so you can replace your project trackers, wiki, team hubs, note-taking apps, and more, consolidating them into a connected, single source of truth.

No under-utilized seats. With Coda, you

only pay for doc makers⁠

and can sync data from many other sources into your Coda docs. That means you can reduce expensive and underused licenses, while still empowering your whole team with the information they need.

Integrate with everything. For any tools you actually need, Coda

has 600+ integrations⁠

so you can bring everything into one place. That could be managing your Jira or Github issues from your team hub, automating Slack reminders from your OKR dashboard, or creating a dashboard of your pipeline data from Salesforce—all without leaving Coda.

It’s also easy to get started, with

hundreds of templates⁠

from other teams—like Stripe, Figma, and Zoom—ready for you to copy and customize.
