Application Portfolion Consolidation Services

Application Portfolio Consolidation Services

In a rapidly evolving digital world, the complexity and cost of software and cloud estates can easily get out of hand if left unchecked. Organisations often end up with an environment that can include a mixture of applications based on commercial off-the-shelf software, freeware, open-source, enterprise applications and custom-developed software.

The complexity of an IT estate can rapidly increase as software continues to be purchased directly from publishers or via resellers, and applications are developed in-house by the business itself. However, this is only part of the story. “Shadow IT” often adds significantly to risk exposure and the level of hidden costs incurred.
