The current recessionary economic cycle has introduced a great deal of uncertainty. As a result, IT organisations are encountering severe budget restrictions and are seeking innovative ways to realise immediate savings. One key component in the IT budget is Storage. The cost of storage hardware typically takes up as much as 20 to 25 percent of overall IT budget. The good news is - organisations already have more storage than they need. The average storage utilisation for enterprises only ranges between 30 and 40 percent. If organisations can effectively harness these existing storage resources, then there is no immediate need to throw money on more storage hardware.
Symantec is uniquely positioned to help organisations significantly reduce or eliminate near-term storage purchases by optimising existing systems and extending their useful life.
