"Revenera says that simply collecting data isn’t enough. Leading companies automate the process and access to the data to get the best possible results out of their usage insights."

"More than half of the companies in the software industry are planning on moving to subscription models in the next year or so."

“A study by Revenera showed that 51% of businesses use subscription or perpetual licensing. It was also stated that subscription and usage-based models will record the strongest growth in the next 18 months. Many organizations are looking to change their models in order to access new markets as well as create a recurring revenue stream.”

"Part of an annual series, this report identifies best practices for collecting and analyzing software usage data, as demonstrated by the 26 percent of respondents who report the ability to collect this very well (a number that jumps to 38 percent for suppliers using a commercial software usage analytics solution).”

"FlexNet Code Aware by Revenera can find security threats and intellectual property (IP) compliance issues in open source code. It scans Java, NuGet, and NPM packages. In addition, the company offers a full enterprise platform for open source security and license compliance, with support for all major software languages. It has more than 70 extensions, and a knowledge base with more than 14 million open source components."

"By the time we reach 2023, more than half of companies will have moved to a subscription-based model for their software products."

"More than half of companies are planning to move to subscription models in the next 18 months, according to a report from Revenera, but at the same time, a one-size-fits-all approach to either monetization or deployment strategy isn’t sufficient to keep pace with varied customer needs."

"A survey released today by Revenera finds that although software companies are moving to SaaS offerings and recurring revenue, end-user customers are not moving at the same pace. The result is a robust mix of monetization and delivery models."

"Developers currently employ the Revenera platform to monetize millions of entitlements and downloads of software. The Software Container Delivery service now extends that capability to container images to enable developers to maximize revenue opportunities."

As a Wind River Studio Marketplace ecosystem partner, Revenera supports the most recent release of Wind River Studio with software composition analysis (SCA), including a complete software bill of materials (SBOM).

“Revenera’s Software Container Delivery accelerates and automates revenue recognition for software producers by ensuring entitlement-based delivery to end customers. With more producers moving to cloud-native deployment models, there is a big market need to cover the full process—from provisioning to customer delivery —in a seamless process, making sure that software is only delivered to paying customers and revenue gets recognized in seconds."

With the latest release of Wind River Studio—a cloud native platform for the development, deployment, operations, and servicing of mission-critical intelligent systems from devices to cloud—Wind River integrates "Software composition analysis [SCA] from Revenera to securely manage the use of open source components by providing a complete software bill of materials [SBOM] for more transparency in the software supply chain and continuous monitoring of open source license compliance and vulnerabilities, as well as supporting steps for remediation.”

When Solibri, which provides services and solutions for construction companies, needed insights into how users engaged with its model checking software for building information modeling (BIM), it turned to Usage Intelligence from Revenera.

Meishan Piao, Director of Services at Revenera, offers actionable tips for turning software license infringers into paying customers through a data-driven license compliance program.

Conal Gallagher, CIO and CISO of Flexera, offers best practices for leveraging open source software. This includes the critical importance of having an accurate Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) using an SCA tool.

Mark Gisi, Director of the Open Source Program Office at Wind River Systems, discusses the importance of the software bill of materials (SBOM) as part of a robust software composition analysis (SCA) initiative. He highlights how Revenera’s SCA tools have helped improve the open source vulnerability and license compliance programs at Wind River.

Revenera was honored by SD Times by being named among 2021’s best development tools.

There are lots of factors in the open source software world converging to make it a big year for “shift left” in software development. Heightened security concerns, an increasing need for software supply chain visibility and the growth and complexity of open source ecosystems will continue to push the responsibility for ensuring code is secure earlier in the engineering process as far left as the request and design phases.

More than one school of thought exists about how to manage open-source software.There are possibly two cultures at play: one that is security-focused and another that makes license compliance more of a priority. But both security and license compliance play important roles in building and delivering quality software products while minimizing the risk and compliance issues that are inherent in OSS use.

Is it time to stop selling on-prem software? Not yet. Revenera’s Vic DeMarines shows how to leverage on-premises deployments as a source of information that can help strengthen future moves.
