Software Asset Management (SAM) and Cloud Cost Management (CCM) continue to fall into key priorities for IT organizations across industries. With the proliferation of the cloud, SaaS vendors, as well as on-premises software vendors, the need to have better insight into software or service consumption and organizational value is paramount. A well designed and mature SAM program greatly reduces inaccurate licensing of software, uncovers overspend, and improves overall system and data security. According to Market Research Future (MRFR), the global SAM Market is expected to reach approximately USD 2.45 Billion by 2023, growing at a ~14.18% CAGR over the forecast period 2018-2023.
At Connor, we have been investing significant resources to provide top-notch advisory services that provide both an auditor’s lens, along with a practitioner’s point of view of effective license management and optimization. With unparalleled experience from thought leaders who have set up and led SAM departments for Fortune 100 companies, Connor helps mitigate IT supplier risks and realize material cost savings, both on-premise and in the cloud.
However, we acknowledge that providing expert services is not always enough to help the world’s top companies manage software and calibrate cloud usage.. In order to provide the best possible solutions to our customers, we have partnered with leading technology vendors to provide a holistic approach to SAM and CCM, including Flexera, Movere, Snow Software, Xensam and Zylo.
