🚀 Exciting New Features in Omnistrate
We’re thrilled to introduce several powerful updates that enhance the Omnistrate platform!
Revamped SaaSBuilder
We have revamped SaaSBuilder! The customer portal where your users access and manage SaaS offerings now offers a faster, more intuitive experience. With a unified interface, improved visibility, and optimized workflows, users can manage deployments effortlessly. We have also improved visibility across subscriptions and resources, making it easier to track and monitor deployments. Experience a smoother, more efficient way to interact with your SaaS offerings. See a demo of the reimagined SaaSBuidler on our YouTube channel.
Google Cloud Shell Support
Omnistrate now supports Google Cloud Shell for onboarding GCP Cloud Accounts, streamlining the setup process with a secure, browser-based terminal. This enables users to quickly configure and integrate their GCP environments without needing local installations or complex configurations. By leveraging Cloud Shell, Omnistrate ensures a seamless and efficient onboarding experience, allowing teams to focus on deploying and managing their cloud resources with minimal friction.

New Action Hooks
We have introduced new action hooks to support more complex scenarios such as clean shutdowns, upgrade preparations, and long restores. These enhancements provide greater flexibility in managing SaaS operations by allowing customized actions at key lifecycle stages. To see the full list of available action hooks and how they can be implemented, visit our documentation.
Deprecation Notice
In 30 days, we will be removing the capability to onboard Cloud Accounts with Terraform for GCP, making Google Cloud Shell the preferred method for onboarding new GCP Cloud Accounts. This change ensures the best onboarding experience. Existing onboarded accounts will not be affected, but the Terraform stack will not receive further updates.
