As long as there has been software, there has been software misuse: both pirated use (companies using pirated versions of software with cracked licenses) and overuse (legitimate customers exceeding the legal use defined in a license agreement). Software companies have had a conflicted history of addressing those who misuse their intellectual property often due to some persistent misconceptions about software piracy.

Software companies have much better margins and are a zillion times more profitable. If you’re trying to defend hardware companies, you would say, “that’s because software companies have much lower costs.” They decide to create a software product that adds additional value to their hardware. If software companies gave away their software because there wasn’t any cost, they wouldn’t make any money.

Customers demand—and suppliers offer—a diverse mix of monetization models for Software and Digital Services related to IoT Devices. However, many suppliers still struggle to get a full view of what’s being used by customers, what is owed to the vendors, and how a product is being used across the customer’s business. Despite this problem, many suppliers have yet to take the step towards solutions that would provide them with these insights. The COVID-19 global pandemic emphasizes the need to both protect current revenues and build a foundation that promotes growth as the economy recovers. The need to grow revenue by helping customers be successful with their solutions is as strong as ever. Tech companies must focus on how to take products to market, through effective pricing, delivery, and monetization. Download this research report from Revenera to learn more.
