For Raynet, this first-time inclusion strengthens its position as a provider of modern Software Asset and SaaS Management solutions.
CHICAGO, IL, UNITED STATES, August 19, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Raynet, a global software vendor with market-leading solutions and a specialist in True IT Asset Visibility, is listed as one of the vendors profiled in the Forrester report “The SaaS and Software Asset Management Solutions Landscape, Q3 2026.” For Raynet, this inclusion marks an important step in positioning itself as a provider of modern SaaS and Software Asset Management (SSAM).
The market is changing fundamentally: Rising software spending, hybrid licensing models, decentralized procurement, and new usage-based billing models are increasing the demands for transparency, cost control, and governance. At the same time, simple inventory and periodic compliance reviews are no longer sufficient. What’s needed are solutions that translate reliable data into continuous decision-making and concrete actions.
Raynet One combines data quality and operational control in a single, centralized platform, providing comprehensive SSAM capabilities: from data discovery, normalization, and enrichment to entitlement and compliance management, as well as cost control. In addition, Raynet makes the processed IT asset data available to existing SAM solutions from partners and third-party companies.
“Data is the key to successful SaaS and Software Asset Management,” says Ragıp Aydın, Founder and CEO of Raynet. “For us, being included in the Forrester Landscape confirms that we are laying the right groundwork for future market demands with True IT Asset Visibility and our integrated platform approach.”
SAM AI breaks down traditional barriers
With SAM AI powered by Raynet One, Raynet and Deloitte are taking a forward-thinking approach to Software Asset Management and are jointly developing the SAM solution of the future. Traditional SAM processes are often manual, rely on a small number of licensing specialists, and are difficult to scale due to complex contracts and individual licensing terms. Generic AI alone can't solve this problem, because decisions in Software Asset Management must remain transparent, repeatable, and robust.
SAM AI therefore combines Artificial Intelligence with a reliable data foundation and Deloitte’s embedded licensing expertise. The AI assists in interpreting complex contracts and licensing terms without autonomously making the final decision. Results can be traced back to specific contract provisions, assumptions, and defined licensing rules.
This makes expert knowledge scalable while reducing reliance on manual, individual analyses. SAM managers can expand their focus beyond individual high-risk vendors to encompass the entire software portfolio. At the same time, IT, procurement, and finance receive transparent information that enables them to identify risks earlier, better prepare for negotiations, and continuously capitalize on opportunities for optimization.
With its first-ever inclusion in the Forrester Landscape for SSAM solutions, Raynet sees this as confirmation of its strategic direction: Successful SaaS and Software Asset Management begins with reliable data – and realizes its full value when that data leads to well-informed decisions and tangible action.
Discover to Manage: from transparency to effective management.
