2022 Gartner^® Market Guide for Software Asset Management Tools

Flexera is recognized as a Representative Vendor in the 2022 Gartner Market Guide for Software Asset Management Tools

According to Gartner, “Software asset management (SAM) tools aim to simplify the complex world of license and SaaS subscription management. The explosion of SaaS, paired with a legacy environment of perpetual licenses, has left organizations struggling with selecting a single software asset management (SAM) tool or a collection of specialized point solutions. Organizations continue to struggle to gain accurate data out of their SAM tools as emphasis is placed on tools providing 100% data accuracy rather than a combined effort of tooling supported by sufficient resourcing to manage data quality. Given the diverse and variable requirements associated with SAM, sourcing, procurement and vendor management, leaders should use this Market Guide to select the right tools to support their SAM strategy.”

• An in-depth market analysis of SaaS spend and SAM trends
• A strategy framework for selecting a SAM tool, plus an overview of the SAM tool market
• Vendor profiles in the SAM tools category, including Flexera
• Recommendations for selecting the right tool to support your SAM initiative
• And more
