New Survey Data Reveals Immaturity in Enterprise SaaS Management Despite Rapid SaaS Adoption

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, October 6, 2021

BONN, Germany and BOSTON, Oct. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- SaaS adoption in the enterprise continues to grow at an accelerating pace. Indeed, 70 percent of international IT leaders surveyed in a new study published today by LeanIX (https://www.leanix.net/) report strong SaaS growth over the last two years, in some cases doubling the number of SaaS applications in use over that time. However, the discipline of SaaS management across organizations lags behind this growth. Effective SaaS management suffers from an absence of purchasing processes tailored to the unique benefits of SaaS. Organizations surveyed have also been slow to implement tools purpose-built for SaaS management, instead relying to a large extent on manual processes and Excel.

Key Points: 
  • Tools and processes aside, the survey also found no common standards when it comes to responsibility for SaaS management.
  • Download the free study report: https://www.leanix.net/en/download/saas-management-survey-2021
    As SaaS adoption continues to grow in the enterprise, IT leaders need to adopt a structured, focused approach to SaaS management.
  • 64 percent of respondents say automation is critical for SaaS management but SaaS management platforms featuring this capability are rarely employed.
  • Offering Enterprise Architecture, SaaS Management, and Value Stream Management, LeanIX helps organizations make sound decisions and accelerate transformation journeys.
