The soaring cost of SaaS is fast becoming unsustainable, but it's not the only cost that's cause for concern – cloud spend is also spiraling by an ave. of 35% YoY. We've explained why this is in our first ever edition of Cloud Spend Insights! vertice.one/cloud-spend-in…

@michalmazurek_ Thanks Michal, I've sent you a message!

@aimee_manning_ I'd be happy to contribute

Looking for experts/companies with a view on paying for SaaS in a foreign currency for cost-savings. Any quotes or insights would be greatly appreciated as would love to feature them in an upcoming Vertice article 🙏 #journorequest #SaaS #prrequest #haro

AI software is in high demand. Share of spend for these tools is up 500% in just 3 months, with @Bizzabo @heyjasperai @MURFAISTUDIO @LumenFive & @firefliesai leading the way. But with costs soaring, how can you keep AI spend to a minimum? vrtc.io/aiss

Using NetSuite? Start rightsizing your contract. Is every licence being utilised? Do you have staff on higher tiers than required? Eliminate unnecessary licences then: Request removal of auto renewal clauses Gain pricing intel to negotiate a discount @verticeHQ can help 😉

90% of SaaS buyers are overpaying by 20-30% on average, but for some tools it's much higher. Just take sales software. The image below represents the ave. discount for the top 50 tools, with some vendors offering ave. discounts in excess of 40%. Huge potential for savings.

Mid-sized companies are getting hit the hardest by SaaS prices and are spending twice as much on software per employee on average than enterprises with a headcount of 5,000+. How does your company compare? @verticeHQ #SaaS

@MosesSternstein Many vendors are also hiding behind inflation to justify price rises, despite SaaS inflation rapidly outpacing market inflation. This is from @verticeHQ SaaS Inflation Index Report (thought it might be of interest to explain why SaaS spend is increasing) vertice.one/inside-saas/re…

SaaS has more pricing power than it thought? Companies increased saas spend MoM, every month

Is the era of flex office finally coming? @tryramp data shows that WeWork is capturing a larger share of company spend

@MediaMatchMaker @verticeHQ Sorry for the delayed reply — sending you a DM!

@aimee_manning_ @verticeHQ Hi Aimee! We'd love to share this for you. Can you confirm the best email to contact you with please? DMs open - Erika

I'm writing an article for @verticeHQ on the subject of "how #CFO's can control costs during inflationary periods" and would love to include insights from finance leaders! #journorequest #HARO #helpab2bwriter

@mollywood Completely agree. I know it's ironic, but more & more companies are subscribing to SaaS spend management software to help them do just that.

And it seems clear that businesses are likely going to start trimming the fat on b2b SaaS (do you really *need* Slack when you already pay for Microsoft and Teams is built right in?). And we've flooded the zone with NEW subscription services that might never get traction at all.

🧵Ok, so I've been an investor for a little less than a year. But I've been in the pattern recognition game for my entire life and I've got a prediction. The B2B SaaS bubble, the darling of the VC world, is going to pop badly, and maybe soon.

Finally, arm yourself with even more leverage by finding out how much other companies are paying for their software (and how much you could therefore be saving). Because what SaaS vendors want you to pay is rarely set in stone! vertice.one/start-saving (16/17)

SaaS pricing inflation is rapidly outpacing market #inflation. Here’s why…🧵
