Jane B. DisbrowMany software agreements contain problematic clauses that are often not recognized as being high risk.   This session will point out the areas where Gartner has seen the highest levels of risk, and discuss how to improve on the risk areas to reduce unexpected cost.  This session will not be a legal review, but will focus on the business terms and conditions that often cause problems. 
Key Issues:
  • What are the primary areas of risk in a software license agreement?
  • What are some examples of contract language risks and what can be negotiated in the contract to reduce the risk?
