“Enterprises are under enormous pressure to increase innovation and reduce IT spend,” said Jim Ryan, President and CEO of Flexera. “In chasing innovation, we continue to see a significant, some would say unsustainable increase in cloud spending.”

“However, cloud isn’t the end game itself nor is it even close to the entire story,” continued Ryan. “We expect the ability to both see and manage the entirety of IT spending—across cloud, on-prem and SaaS— as a strategic imperative for any enterprise spending 10’s of millions or more on IT. Only after companies gain this visibility can they map this spend back to business services and ultimately to business outcomes.”
