Company tech stack size

Average company tech stack size continues upward trend

While there have been some fluctuations over the past year, organizations now use a record 136 SaaS applications on average, up 5% from Q4 2024, reflecting continued software adoption and growing tech stacks.

This surge is driven by a combination of technological advances, the increased availability of specialized tools and wider departmental adoption.

Expanding portfolios does, however, introduce challenges such as SaaS sprawl, underutilized licenses, integration complexities and increased governance and security demands. Procurement, finance and IT teams must therefore implement strategies to manage this sprawl, optimize usage and maintain visibility across increasingly complex company tech stacks.
