// Efficient Software Portfolio Optimization for sustainable IT cost reduction
IT Portfolio Optimization with Raynet One: Reduce costs and create transparency
Maximize your software investment & plan for the future
Despite centralized software procurement and deployment, many companies are paying too much money to operate and license their software. According to Gartner, total enterprise software spending in 2022 will be $670 billion and rising.
To ensure that IT costs and the associated effort continue to be kept as low as possible, companies must have visibility over the installations and use of on-premises, SaaS, PaaS & IaaS applications. As a result, strategic decisions can be made, costs can be saved, and portfolio optimization can be performed.
