Optimize support services and maximize IT investments
The majority of annual IT budgets go toward ongoing operations and enhancements, with a small percentage available for needed modernization and transformation initiatives that can drive competitive advantage and growth. ERP and database maintenance costs are typically a large, recurring line item in the average IT budget. It is time for all CIOs and IT leaders to explore third-party support and managed IT support services as proven alternatives to traditional, costly vendor support in order to maximize investments and ensure funding and resources to achieve business outcomes.
Cut ERP and database support and maintenance costs
CIOs must focus on both the operational challenges of global business disruption and on prudent IT cost management. Cutting costs quickly but in a thoughtful way is a top priority for IT leaders. Rimini Street independent, third-party support services and comprehensive support solutions can help CIOs immediately save 50% on annual ERP support fees and up to 90% on total support costs. Integrated application management helps remove inefficiencies, streamline processes, and drive better outcomes for clients. Rimini Street has helped SAP and Oracle clients save over $10B to date, enabling them to better focus resources on innovation and strategic initiatives that enhance competitive advantage and fuel growth.
Gain control of your ERP roadmap
Rimini Street replaces software vendor ERP support for enterprise applications and databases, giving organizations the flexibility to strategically defer costly, risky, and unnecessary upgrades or migrations to a new platform until there’s clear business value and ROI — rather than following vendor-dictated timelines just to maintain full support.
