Almost all companies reported adopting new business models (96%), changing processes (98%) and seeking out innovative technologies for revenue management (99%). And, while nearly half (49%) recognize that improved revenue management capabilities can increase revenue, 96% depend on spreadsheets for some revenue management tasks.
“Today’s volatile and constantly changing channel environment places even greater competitive pressure on high tech companies, and the issue of revenue management has become particularly critical as companies seek to recover from the effects of the pandemic,” says Chanan Greenberg, senior vice president and general manager, high tech, for Model N. “The need to align channels, pricing and incentive programs to the end-customer buying journey has created increased complexity as well as uncertainty about the accuracy and integrity of financial controls.”
