According to Gartner, software spend is the second-highest IT spend category as of today. Much of this spend is comprised of ongoing software maintenance and support costs. For large software publishers such as SAP, Microsoft, Oracle, and IBM, software maintenance and support revenue represents nearly 50% of their total annual revenues. Gross margins on this support average 90%. With so much IT budget being devoted to the maintenance of software, many enterprises are looking to third-party software maintenance providers to preserve and sustain their software titles. The reason? Third-party providers are able to provide high-quality support at typically one-half to one-third of the cost of the OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturer).
