Josys Alternative for MSPs

For MSPs who start from client spend, the best Josys alternative is BetterTracker. Josys leads with identity governance across client tenants. BetterTracker connects bank and card accounts through Plaid, tracks every client’s contracts and notice dates in ContractTracker, and lets you ask Betty AI, your AI agent, about it in plain language, with a 14-day free trial.

Why MSPs switch to BetterTracker

Spend from the source

ExpenseTracker connects bank and card accounts through Plaid, so recurring charges show up even when nobody added the app to an identity provider.

Notice dates, not surprises

ContractTracker reads contracts with AI-powered OCR or imports them in bulk from a CSV file. You choose how many days ahead you’re emailed before each notice and expiration date.

Every client in one place

CustomerTracker shows each client’s apps, contracts and spend in one place, and you can connect BetterTracker 365 Scout with Login with Microsoft for each client.

Why MSPs look for a Josys alternative

Josys is a multi-tenant platform for MSPs, built around identity governance. Its public pages describe a central portal for switching between client tenants, app and identity discovery through identity providers and a browser extension, access reviews, and automated onboarding and offboarding.

That’s a strong fit when the job is controlling who can access what. In a QBR, clients often ask something else: what are we paying for, and when can we get out of it? If that’s the question you need to answer, a Josys alternative for MSPs should start from the money.

BetterTracker connects to financial accounts through Plaid and pulls in contracts directly, so you see what each client spends and when each notice date lands, across every client environment.

Every client in one place with CustomerTracker
