“The cost of cloud has become a boardroom conversation,” says Becky Carr, CMO of Tangoe. “Ten years ago, cloud was all about saving money.” In the years that have followed, the costs of cloud, the costs of buying infrastructure as a service, and the cost other services, have changed the way companies buy technology. The recurring charges might begin as low costs points of entry, but management of those costs quickly assembles. Recurring charges then, and the proliferation of recurring charges now, remain a cost management challenge. In this podcast, Becky Carr, CMO of Tangoe, discusses how her company has made TEM into a way for organizations to gain visibility into their whole technology posture, how and what they are using and to understand the related costs. Carr shares with us research on the changes that are possible when companies gain a better understanding of their technology spending. For enterprises, TEM is something to look at, especially as we enter a more challenging environment. For channel partners, Carr outlines how TEM can be a fresh opportunity for revenues and new conversations with clients.
