Frost & Sullivan’s global team of Growth Pipeline experts continually identifies and evaluates growth opportunities across multiple industries, technologies, and regions worldwide. The process involves the rigorous analysis of several nominees for each award category to determine the recipient, evaluating best practices criteria across two dimensions for each nominee. Thales was successful across several categories, including product differentiation, brand strength, growth strategy excellence, product quality, and implementation excellence.
Software licensing management (SLM) production has faced several roadblocks in its development in the current market. Software manufacturers and device makers regularly struggle to prevent access to unauthorised users while ensuring legitimate users can easily access and buy their solutions. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath, as well as high costs and lack of awarenesss, mean that despite its many benefits, SLM has not grown as exponentially as it should, especially in regions such as Asia and Latin America.
Thales is a recognized leader in the software monetization field, providing the most comprehensive platform and services for license and entitlement management and helping software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies accelerate their growth. With a team of 450 experts across more than 20 countries, including the United States, much of Europe, South Korea, China, Japan, and India, Thales solidifies its position as a leader in the software license management market.
“Thales provides the most comprehensive platform for software enforcement and hardware enforcement and is focused on solutions to help the SaaS market scale quickly,” said Mukul Krishna, Global Practice Head, Frost & Sullivan.

In a fiercely competitive and ever-changing market, Thales has made its way to the top with an effective growth strategy and resilience and offers optimal services at a global scale.
