Did you know there is significant lead time to navigate signing of terms and conditions for new software by purchasing?  In addition, all new software must go through an accessibility assessment, which includes collecting relevant info from the vendor, and often, full testing of the application.  This can sometimes take months.  All cloud based applications require a security assessment as well.  Even free applications must undergo this assessment.  Please be aware of this requirement when planning for future software needs, to allow appropriate lead time.
