Snow for Cloud

Snow for Cloud provides IT leaders with the next evolution of transparent, actionable views  of their Software as a Service (SaaS) environment so they can easily assess and manage cloud usage and spend. It provides them insight to discover, make an inventory of and track consumption of more than 1,000 SaaS applications.

“We couldn’t be more pleased in feeling that we’ve come out on top of the pack.  To us, this is the first industry report to score key SAM capabilities across all products in the market on a function-by-function basis.  We believe it’s helpful because the report reveals the numerical scores, which we think is very helpful to customers selecting SAM tools,” said Tom Canning, Vice President of Strategy at Flexera.  “From our perspective, it confirms what we’re seeing on the ground.  Customers not only want a solution giving them control over technology asset costs and risk

After Gartner conducted a company and product evaluation of Snow’s SAM solution, Snow Software was named a Leader in the Magic Quadrant, positioned furthest to the right for completeness in vision and highest for ability to execute.  

“To us, Snow’s leadership position affirms our strategy of creating innovative solutions and being relentlessly customer-focused,” said Axel Kling, CEO of Snow Software. “We continue to innovate at an aggressive pace and will shortly announce new versions of products that will further address the future needs of SAM buyers.”

Flexera believes that its customers also affirmed Flexera’s SAM leadership via Gartner’s Peer Insights product reviews, providing reviews of FlexNet Manager Suite, Flexera’s SAM and license optimization solution.

As many organizations embark on digital transformation projects and adopt a cloud-first strategy, they need more innovative and effective approaches to IT procurement and management. SAM has evolved to manage a wider range of business assets and processes, transforming beyond license compliance and optimization to include strategic cost control, infrastructure management and security control.

“We are delighted to be recognized once again as a Leader by Gartner,” said Vishal Rao, President and CEO at Snow. “Tectonic shifts in the global economy have elevated the need for organizations to minimize expenses, optimize costs and better understand the value of their technology. At the same time, complex hybrid environments are presenting new challenges when it comes to managing technology.
