I am on the procurement side of the house. ~10% to even 20%+ increases were normal in the past couple of years, and it was considered acceptable for some products as the market was so wild. But it's obvious at this point through budgetary estimates for 5-year+ contracts that companies are going to expect to see this every year moving forward.

When we start seeing our license and support costs planning on almost doubling in the next 5 years, that have already skyrocketed in the past couple of years, it makes us start talking about shifting to a different solution.
