What are the top drivers to the rising demand in the software asset management market?
The increasing adoption of cloud and SaaS solutions is expected to propel the growth of the software asset management market going forward. Cloud-based solutions are services or applications hosted on remote servers and accessed over the internet, while SaaS (Software as a Service) solutions provide software applications that are delivered and managed via the cloud, eliminating the need for local installations or infrastructure. The adoption of cloud-based and SaaS solutions is on the rise due to their scalability, cost-effectiveness, remote accessibility, and ability to streamline software management with automated updates and enhanced security. Software asset management (SAM) facilitates the adoption of cloud and SaaS solutions by providing visibility into software usage, optimizing license management, ensuring compliance, and controlling costs, enabling organizations to transition smoothly to cloud-based environments. For instance, in September 2022, according to the report published by Google Cloud, a US-based cloud computing service, the use of multiple public clouds increased 26% in 2022, from 21% in 2021. Further, hybrid cloud utilization has also intensified, from 25% in 2021 to 42.5% in 2022. Therefore, the increasing adoption of cloud and SaaS solutions is driving the growth of the software asset management market.
