Hosted Network Total Cost of Ownership
Owning, operating and managing a LAN or a WAN is not easy task financially ormentally. The abundance of technology choices is confusing enough. Not to mention licensing, support, maintenance, installation and configuration.
The up front cost of acquisition is just the beginning. When you calculate your TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) using the Gartner model, a network user will cost you $4,500.00 to $8,000.00 annually. This model takes into account several categories.
There are tangible costs like software, training, hardware, asset administration, and downtime. The intangible costs are management costs like maintenance, disaster prevention and disaster recovery.
By leveraging our hosted platform, we can reduce your TCO by providing high availability and uptime. Therefore you are reducing user downtime and lost productivity. We will handle all of the cost of acquisition for servers, networking devices, licensing and disaster recovery. Our vast majority of clients enjoy a dramatic reduction in their annual IT expenditures.
Customers that take their systems seriously deal with the escalating costs and the issues surrounding them. That is why part time IT staff and consultants are often the only solution. They take care of servers, user work stations, firewalls, backups, user systems and a whole lot more. Our hosted platform eliminates these costs. The only additional costs depend on which solution fits your needs.
