Making the formatting in the Products and tech section a little cleaner. --Octavius SV 18:22, 23 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

This article is classified as a stub. I'm making edits to make this a more accurate and suitable article. I do work for Flexera Software and I'm charged with, among other things, making sure this content is accurate and up to date.

Further expanding this article so it is not a stub according to Wikipedia standards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jlipsey01 (talk • contribs) 19:47, December 19, 2014‎

Secunia redirects to Flexera Software, but the Flexera article does not mention Secunia. What happened to Secunia? Why is it redirecting to here? This needs to be mentioned in the article. Urbanus Secundus (talk) 23:03, 23 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

See Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion/Archive 173#Secunia. I've restored the history. It appears that Flexera bought Secunia. wbm1058 (talk) 15:13, 23 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Nothing new? The article still does not mention Secunia, but Secunia is mentioned and linked in several Wikipedia articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.2.195.137 (talk) 18:39, 20 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

"Revenera" https://www.revenera.com/ is linked to here, Flexera. Why? --89.186.194.122 (talk) 12:12, 17 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request received to merge articles: Revenera into Flexera; dated: March 2024. Revenera is a child company of Flexera, it's entire article could fall under a seperate section in Flexera, and having the two seperate articles based on the content of both is confusing, also WP:N. Discuss here. Lyeuhm (talk) 00:49, 11 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Does anyone have info on the Flexera State of the Cloud Reports that the company publishes following the acquisition of RIghtScale? Are these generally considered reputable in the industry? 24.206.66.13 (talk) 22:39, 11 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi editors,

I have a conflict of interest as I work with or represent Flexera and will not edit the article directly. Below is a proposed update to improve clarity, structure, and verifiability for the article on Flexera. The update also aligns better with current company structure, analyst recognition, and Wikipedia’s neutral point of view. All sources are cited appropriately.

Not done for now: Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Rest of the sources could be improved. Material requested is ad-like. PK650 (talk) 08:48, 21 June 2025 (UTC)Reply
