Insight Recognized in Gartner 2021 Magic Quadrant for Software Asset Management Managed Services

Insight provides end-to-end capabilities to optimize cloud migration, FinOps and use of cloud-based applications over time

Insight Enterprises (Nasdaq: NSIT), the global provider of Insight Intelligent Technology Solutions™ that maximize the value of IT, has been recognized among 11 leading global providers in the Gartner® 2021 Magic Quadrant™ for Software Asset Management (SAM) Managed Services. Insight believes this recognition validates the company’s all-in-one ability to help organizations not only maintain traditional software license compliance but more importantly, better manage the economics of cloud consumption and optimize workloads across multi-cloud and edge environments.

Gartner defines SAM managed services as an employment of the provider’s proprietary SAM skills and methodologies to transform a client’s existing processes and augment their resources. Gartner predicts in the report, “Through 2023, the software asset management managed services market will continue to grow at 20% compound annual growth rate due to client challenges managing multiple environments and employing expertise.”

“Now more than ever, companies need more effective tools that provide them actionable insights and the flexibility to optimize the mission-critical software that delivers it,” said Stan Lequin, senior vice president and general manager, Solutions at Insight. “This need will only grow as companies process even more data using technologies like the Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence — the edge requires specific software to draw useful analytics supporting an organization’s strategic goals, and the needs continually change with the business.

“As companies figure this out, they’re also getting a grip on the best use of their cloud spend based on what they have in their data center and workload size. It’s no longer a matter of simply managing software or cloud services to safeguard against compliance issues and runaway costs. It’s the need for scalability and transparency, based on how data and applications evolve as the business grows and changes. It’s ongoing governance and training as more areas of the business have a say in running in the cloud. Insight simplifies the complex by managing a client’s entire cloud and edge ecosystem, uniting cloud and data strategy, software development, team support, pricing and lifecycle flexibility,” said Lequin.

Insight’s SAM managed services are delivered through a worldwide center of excellence led by more than 100 cloud and software optimization technical experts supporting global clients across regions. Insight assists in every step of the software management process, from procurement and financial operations to guiding clients through application modernization as clients depend more on cloud and edge technologies to operate.
