A clear view for managing portfolio growth, governance, and cost drivers or containment
I have just started toward the goal of implementation, so don't have much knowledge of the solution beyond my initial training. It is important for any company to define what they want from the solution. For example, one recommendation is that companies pick questions they want answered right at the outset. One company might say they want to know about their application landscape. Another company might say they want to see cost drivers. If you strategically prioritize your questions, then you will be able to go through implementation with less pain. Based on my use so far, I see the potential of the solution. I have been part of the company for a long time so I understand its pain points. I believe the solution is the right tool to get a clear view of governance, cost drivers, and cost containment. I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Streamlines the process of identifying apps nearing end-of-life or requiring retirement and facilitates informed decisions about app retention
When we input our inventory and components, it tells us which ones are nearing end-of-life, deprecated, or obsolete. It also categorizes them. We've added flags, essentially tags, to mark certain things as non-strategic technologies. Using LeanIX, we made conscious decisions about which technologies are strategic and which aren't. This allows us to generate reports highlighting applications written in non-strategic technologies, giving us a better picture of our inventory size and what needs to migrate to the cloud or our target technology. So, it's about understanding what we have, seeing how it aligns with our strategic direction, and then driving the movement towards that direction.
