ROI - TCO White Papers
Lowering Total cost of ownership through Device Management
Overview CIOs, IT managers, road warriors, warehouse staff -- we all love our mobile devices and the productivity convenience they bring to everyday work tasks. Although handheld devices are terrific tools, the fact is, managing and maintaining them can be prohibitively expensive. Gartner estimates the annual total cost of ownership (TCO) for mobile devices equipped with wireless modems � a must in most industrial environments -- is around $4000 per device per year. Gartner also notes that, �When assessing the total costs of wireless mobile products, we found that the more capable the device the higher the cost. The more processing power it has, the more applications it can store, leading to higher support and operational costs.� And as anyone in the IT business will tell you, a large part of those support costs are spent just in keeping devices updated with current software and security.
