Flexera Acquires Software Usage Analytics Leader Revulytics and
Expands Software Monetization Portfolio
Flexera, a demonstrated leader in software installation, open source software scanning, and software
monetization, announced that it has acquired Revulytics, a recognized leader in software usage analytics.
Software usage analytics is a fast-growing space. As software companies evolve their business models,
understanding product usage is a critical success factor. As highlighted in the Flexera Monetization Monitor:
Usage Management and Insights, companies that understand usage are more confident that their price is aligned
with value, but only 35% of companies can gather product usage data very well with on-premises software
companies lagging further behind. With the acquisition of Revulytics, Flexera continues to expand its software
monetization platform giving organizations more insight into the actual use of their products. Enhanced
capabilities include compliance data analytics, user behavior and telemetry, and in-app messaging, providing
software companies with the intelligence to make better pricing, compliance, roadmap and strategy decisions.
Revulytics, based in Waltham, Massachusetts, adds several core solutions to Flexera’s existing monetization
offerings, including:
• Compliance Intelligence – Usage Analytics for Compliance Teams: Actionable insights into where pirated
versions of software are being used, including data analytics with the scope, value and type of infringement. This
enables compliance and audit teams to generate new license revenue from existing and prospective customers.
• Usage Intelligence – Usage Analytics for Product Teams: In-depth insights on feature usage, analysis of
customer behavior, and dashboards with install base analytics and telemetry. This helps drive roadmap and
pricing decisions, identifies cross-sell and upsell opportunities, and identifies strong customer advocates.
“Software monetization is more than licensing and enforcement; it’s also about understanding actual
product usage. This insight enables product teams to make better, data-driven decisions and gives
compliance teams the actionable data they need to generate revenue from unlicensed use,” said SVP and
General Manager of Flexera’s Supplier Division. Flexera is already recognized by Frost & Sullivan and IDC
for its software monetization platform and usage analytics capabilities. With the incredible people and
products at Revulytics, we are expanding our offering to provide software and technology companies with
even more insights to build and implement their digital business models.”

Emburse Launches Abacus Reach to Automate Non-employee Expenses
19
Emburse, a global leader in expense and AP automation solutions, announces the launch of Abacus REACH to streamline the process for non-employee
expense reimbursement. REACH allows organizations to easily provide non-employee travelers with a mobile app-based solution which makes it simple to
verify policy compliance, and capture and submit travel expenses in real time.Non-employee groups, such as job candidates, external consultants and
vendors, have long presented a challenge for processing one-off or infrequent travel expenses, as there was no simple way for them to submit receipts for
reimbursement and no efficient way for organizations to process them. As a result, finance teams have been forced to use non-standard, time-consuming and
manual workflows to reimburse these travelers. This has required them to set up one-time vendor payments in the GL system, and also introduced
unnecessary risk of expense fraud and manual re-keying errors. Organizations can invite external travelers to use REACH via a single, company-branded
email. In addition, HR teams can sync REACH with their applicant tracking solutions, which can then automatically invite candidates to download and use
the solution as soon as an on-site interview is scheduled. Travelers can then download and then sign into the mobile app or web-based UI. Travelers can then
submit receipt images for both flight and hotel bookings, and incidentals directly through the app, where they can be immediately routed for approval using
REACH’s real-time approval workflows. This allows travelers to be reimbursed the day after expense approval. Organizations can further improve the
traveler experience by combining REACH with employer-paid Emburse cards, to eliminate the need for out-of-pocket spend.

Piriou Expects to Double Revenues Following Digital Overhaul

Infor, a global leader in business cloud software specialized by industry, announced French shipbuilder Piriou has chosen Infor LN software to help
transform its global production, repair, and maintenance operations. Piriou, which builds mid-sized boats for private and public use, military and
commercial fishing, has decided to implement a modern enterprise resource planning software system in a quest to double its revenues over the
next five years. Previously, Piriou used an AS/400-based ERP system that offered limited functionalities, only supported the French language and
was not user friendly. This inhibited Piriou’s growing number of production and servicing operations users at its shipyards in Africa and Vietnam.
After a thorough review of eight vendors including IFS, Microsoft and SAP, Piriou chose Infor LN, supported by French systems integrator
Hélyad. Using Infor LN, Piriou expects to increase its production volume by better optimizing its production and giving users direct visibility to
component parts ordering. This will be particularly beneficial to system users in Vietnam, who are faced with increasing complexity when ordering
parts through various layers of suppliers or intermediaries, which currently hampers visibility and speed. Infor LN is ideally suited to Piriou’s
complex ordering, production and supply chain processes. Piriou holds no product stocks; it builds ships to customers’ unique requirements. Some
designs take up to four years to fully scope and test to a customer’s requirements.
