Gouvernance IT - Notif de redirection

Lead users to the approved alternative

Shadow IT doesn’t happen by accident. It appears when employees feel the approved tools slow them down or don’t meet their needs.

Instead of blocking productivity, Lemon Learning intervenes in the moment of diversion, recommends the approved alternative, and keeps work flowing inside secure, compliant platforms.

Gain visibility into Shadow IT across your digital workplace

Most organisations don’t know which tools employees actually use and which ones they avoid.

Gain real visibility into usage patterns, monitored tools, blocked applications, and approved alternatives, helping you track risks, adoption gaps, and tool sprawl before it escalates.
