Average Cost Savings AnalysisCLOUD UPGRADE vs ON-PREMISE RENEWAL SCENARIOS

Categorization of company size and modules are based on typical user counts and related associated costs. Calculations have been formulated with conservative, legitimate lower-bound input figures. Cost savings can typically exceed amounts shown, especially when the 20% off first year Cloud discount for existing customers and multi-year prepay discounts of up to 30% off are applied!

Accuracy of numbers and calculations will vary by each customer’s specific situation and their related BI360 licenses and assumptions. The ranges and figures provided are purely examples for illustrative purposes and not final cost savings. Savings do not factor in the already incurred one time initial v4 perpetual software license cost and are only based on continued recurring costs of annual enhancement & support fees and the associated costs of hosting software on-premise, as shown in the savings calculator.

Specific figures based on each circumstance can be determined through a cost savings calculator exercise with your Solver Account Executive or BI360 vendor partner.

Notes*1. All assumptions have been inputted with conservative, legitimate lower-bound figures for sake of providing the most accurate estimate possible. *2. Accuracy of numbers and calculations will vary by each customer's specific situation and their related BI360 licenses and assumptions. *3. Savings are determined based on continued annual recurring costs of Enhancement and Support plans and the additional associated costs of hosting software On-Premise, and do not factor in the already incurred one-time initial v4 perpetual software license cost. *4. Assumption of 1 Connector Integration and 5 Data Modules (via bundle pricing) were used for all On-Premise and Cloud pricing scenarios. User License totals were calculated via bundled end user rates with built-in 20% off discount for v4, where applicable.*5. Assumptions of Estimated Internal Hourly Cost kept constant for all scenarios (calculated at 1 IT employee at $80,000 Salary plus $20,000 social expenses per year).*6. Assumptions of two servers and their enhancement fees (SQL and Web servers) at a variable cost determined by user counts with a lifetime of 5 years, SQL & Windows server licenses (does not include other license costs such as CAL, application, enterprise level, or other licenses) including software assurance at 20% cost per year also formulated variably by total user count with 5 year server license lifetime renewal period regardless of total number of servers/users, and electricity cost of $731 per server per year kept constant for all scenarios.*7. Cloud pricing shown is in full and does not factor in the existing customer 20% off first year Cloud discount or multi-year prepay discount savings of up to 30% off.*8. Additional one time upgrade cost for migration work is not included in total Cloud price and is invoiced separately based on level of complexity and hours needed. For purposes of the cost savings calculator, average assumption of 40 hours at $240/hr rate used and dispersed over 5 years time.
