# What Is Suger

Suger is a cloud go-to-market platform for selling and billing software through cloud marketplaces (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Snowflake, Oracle), with metering, invoicing, revenue reporting, CRM/PRM integrations, and workflow automation. It streamlines and centralizes the quote-to-cash process for cloud marketplace transactions, so you can manage every marketplace from one platform.

## Overview

Businesses increasingly use cloud marketplaces to reach buyers and sell software solutions and services. But managing transactions across multiple cloud marketplaces can be complex and time-consuming. Suger solves this by centralizing and automating the quote-to-cash process — helping you automate workflows, gain visibility, and optimize your operations across cloud marketplaces.

## What You Can Do with Suger

Suger brings your entire cloud marketplace business into one platform:

- **List and manage products** across the [AWS](/aws-marketplace/), [Azure](/azure-marketplace/), [GCP](/gcp-marketplace/), [Snowflake](/snowflake-marketplace/), [Alibaba](/alibaba-marketplace/), and [Oracle](/oracle-marketplace/) marketplaces from a single console.
- **Create and manage offers** — public offers, private offers, channel partner (resale) offers, and amendments — without logging into each cloud portal.
- **Meter usage and automate billing** so metered products are reported and invoiced accurately. See [Usage Metering](/get-started/metering/).
- **Co-sell with the cloud providers** by syncing opportunities to the AWS, Microsoft, and Google co-sell programs. See [Co-Sell](/cosell/).
- **Work from your CRM** so your sales team can transact directly from [Salesforce](/salesforce-app/) or [HubSpot](/hubspot-app/) opportunities.
- **Track revenue and analytics** across every marketplace in one place. See [Analytics](/analytics/).
