Our take
More businesses than ever are turning to SaaS solutions to help their operations run more smoothly, efficiently, and at a more affordable cost. However, with the broad gamut of game-changing services available, software procurement is becoming such a time-consuming process that companies can find themselves unable to conduct full research and negotiation to land the best deals.
Automated SaaS procurement company Tropic is looking to help companies make smart, money-saving decisions to pick the right SaaS for them. Founded in 2019, it has since landed substantial investment, along with attracting customers such as Vimeo, Intercom, and Qualtrics. Its product offerings provide solutions along the entirety of the SaaS procurement supply chain, enabling it to serve all the needs of its clients.
By developing a buyer-first model, the company is likely to win strong business from companies who may lack the technical confidence to navigate the SaaS market alone. And with digital transformation more widespread than ever, this is likely a substantial market in which Tropic has the chance to develop and grow.
