Overview:
Understanding how much your current email system costs, and how that all adds up, is the key to making changes and to providing a better service for your users. It is only when you understand the risks your organization faces and the costs of your mitigation products that you can perform a true cost-benefit analysis. And breaking out the costs of a typical email solution can be quite surprising – especially when it’s a business-critical service that is taken for granted, and for which the IT department is paying. It’s not just the initial capital costs that are an issue; it’s also the ongoing operational expenses.

Although industry estimates that the cost of managing any on-premises software can be up to four times the initial purchase price, for email storage it’s closer to seven to one.

This paper will list and discuss what your email infrastructure is really costing you as well as talk about cloud based services and what it can mean for your bottom line.
