Book a demo Chat with an expert ## Frequently asked questions Trusted answers for your technology questions ### How can I optimize my IT spend? Managing your sprawling hybrid IT portfolio creates a unique challenge when overseeing the associated spend. We help you gain visibility and use actionable insights to improve your ROI by maximizing usage of existing resources across your cloud, SaaS, containers, desktop and data center. ### How can I identify unknown, vulnerable, unused or obsolete assets in my IT environment? When you’re unable to identify unknown, vulnerable, unused or obsolete software and hardware, you incur tech debt and create security or compliance risks—and that can cause major issues for your organization. With Flexera, you can proactively manage software vulnerability and obsolescence risk in your IT environment, prioritize remediation of end-of-life and vulnerable technology, and enable business transformation and modernization. ### What can I do about shadow IT? You can’t manage what you can’t see—and shadow IT causes wasted time, inconsistent business approaches, wasted investments, inefficiencies, and a higher incidence of compliance and security risk. With Flexera, shine a light on shadow IT activity across software, SaaS (including generative AI applications), cloud, containers and more. Reduce the operational expense of your tech investments, select and fund revenue-increasing initiatives and increase the success rate of initiatives like cloud migration, data center consolidation and IT transformation. ### How can I rein in unbudgeted spending? If you’re not proactively calculating your license positions and IT spend, your organization is at risk for unbudgeted true-up expenses and audits. Plus, with the explosion of cloud, you may struggle with runaway costs and out-of-balance spending. Flexera offers a unique approach to your organization’s hybrid ITAM and FinOps journey that enables IT, operations, procurement, cloud centers of excellence, enterprise architects and FinOps teams to work collaboratively with business units and resource owners to gain visibility and identify areas of savings opportunities. ### How can I identify and remediate waste? Wasted spend across desktop, data center, SaaS and IaaS/PaaS remains high among enterprises, around an average 20-30%\*. Flexera helps you see the technology you’re using, so you can eliminate unused subscriptions and rationalize applications and vendors based on trusted, actionable data. With Flexera, you get the insights you need to purchase only the technology necessary. *\*Source: Flexera 2025 State of ITAM Report* ### How can I gain control over cloud costs? Without proper governance of your cloud instances, you run the risk of compliance issues and could end up with surprising or costly bills. With Flexera, you get a standard approach to managing, optimizing and scaling your cloud environment responsibly, including spend approvals and automated governance. Flexera is also a member of the FinOps Foundation and its technology is enabled to deliver capabilities to keep you at the forefront of cloud financial management best practices. ### What can I do about my unreliable CMDB data? Getting accurate information on your IT environment has proven to be difficult with your current CMDB data. With Flexera, you can clean, normalize, standardize and enrich your data automatically. Using curated content from Technopedia, the world’s largest and most comprehensive technology data reference catalog, enhance your CMDB data and discover complete, accurate details on your technology environment. ### How do I determine the environmental impact of my IT footprint? You need to regularly report on environmental, social and corporate governance initiatives, but you lack the visibility and understanding of how your IT environment is driving sustainability initiatives. Flexera provides critical insights on carbon emissions, hardware power ratings, energy consumption and asset lifecycles including end of life or support data so you can accurately report on your IT sustainability position.
