SpendHound is the single source of truth for companies’ renewal information and includes:
- A comprehensive view of all software applications used with annual contract values, auto-renewal information, renewal dates, license counts, and more
- An invoice and contract management system for companies to store their invoices and contracts
- Renewal reminders through email and Slack so companies never miss upcoming software renewals
- Free advice from procurement experts to discuss price benchmarking insights and negotiation strategies for any upcoming renewals
Companies use the SpendHound platform and procurement expert service to save time and money on their software renewals.
SpendHound is free for customers because customer data is de-identified, aggregated with other panelists, and used as part of YipitData market research (example report).
