• Understanding agreements

• Thinking about the exit

• What it actually means when you buy and run Oracle software

• Does all software licensing need specialist legal counsel?

We also cover a number of wider topics relating to Oracle and “Big Tech” in general with a surprising take on the current Oracle-Walmart-TikTok deal, an update on Sunrise Firefighters action over Oracle’s cloud revenue, and the future direction of technology companies in the US.

In this podcast AJ Witt from The ITAM Review is joined by Sean Robinson from License Dashboard, Matt Fisher from SHI, and Eric Christopher from Zylo.

We got together ahead of our Wisdom North America conference to discuss current trends in IT Asset Management and topics for discussion include the impact of remote working on the hardware supply chain, what the rapid growth in SaaS apps means for organisations, and how the future of SAM has changed. If 2020 was about enabling remote working and controlling costs, what’s next? SaaS spending has grown over 25% in the US this year, but what does that mean for software publishers without a subscription model? And with an ongoing dynamic business environment how do we make our ITAM programs flexible and agile enough to ensure we’re able to govern that environment? We close out with who we should be engaging with and how to influence key stakeholders to buy in to your IT Asset Management program.
