Schools Migrate From NetWare to Windows, Gaining Reliability, $340,000 in TCO Savings
Overview Hudson County Schools of Technology was supporting 3,500 students and 370 teachers with a mixed environment including Novell NetWare. Server availability was as low as 60 percent, and the IT staff couldn't handle more duties, although user needs were increasing. In response, the district migrated away from Novell, creating an environment based entirely on Microsoft Windows 2000 Server. The district has increased user accounts by 1,500 percent, to 3,000; server availability from 60 to 98 percent; and expanded its network to serve the entire enterprise - all without increasing IT support staff. The move to Windows saves the schools more than $340,000 per year. Without savings in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), the district says it would not have attempted the expansion.
