Business units, meanwhile, managed up to two two-thirds of SaaS spend, a 22 percent increase. “Recent SaaS growth is driven primarily by business units and individuals, rather than the IT department,” said Zylo analysts. Al l the whi le, SaaS-friendly enterprises are supporting portfol ios of more than 320 SaaS appl ications on average, with the largest enterprises analyzed by the AI engine supporting more than 600 on average. Enterprise organizations spend nearly $65 mi l l ion a year on average on SaaS each year. And SaaS solutions are entering enterprise tech environments at robust rates. The average organization sees eight apps entering its environment every 30 days. “SaaS is easy to acquire, creating a highly dynamic environment,” said Zylo analysts. With the sprawl of SaaS also comes the sprawl of SaaS renewals throughout an organization. The average organization experiences 234 SaaS renewals a year, which equates to nearly 20 each month or nearly one renewal every business day. “Because organizations have so many SaaS applications – and they’repurchased and managed throughout the organization — it’s easy to lose track of when each application is set to renew,” said Zylo researchers. “When organizations are AT YOUR SERVICE: XaaS Most Redundant SaaS Functions within Organizations Online training classes Digital assets Team collaboration Project management Recruiting Web conferencing File storage & sharing Governance, risk & compliance Digital analytics Domain registration Source: Zylo SaaS Categories Experiencing the Greatest Growth Business process management Digital content VPN client Screen and video capture Email marketing Data warehouse Authoring and publishing Survey and forms Predictive analytics and forecasting Design Source: Zylo PLATINUM SPONSORS THE CHANNEL MANAGER’S PLAYBOOK 8
