Frugal IT executives looking for an edge in reducing costs are exploring and expanding virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solutions to help meet cost cutting goals. IDC research puts the cost of a typical PC at over $1,400 per year, consuming 20% or more of a typical IT budget. Contributing to the high cost of PCs is the difficulty in managing and maintaining standards in these distributed assets, application compatibility and change management, and PC security.

I was working on a recent business case for a client and even though the return on investment for the project had very compelling returns, was conservatively built on savings that could be banked on 100%, and with a quick payback, the IT executive was still in a bind. The virtualization project required a modest $300,000 initial investment in licenses, labor and services to deliver a pretty much locktight $500,000+ per year in savings over the next three years.

Customers buy when they are ready to buy, not when you are ready to sell. Too many reps throw proposal after proposal out the door and then lose interest in following up because they get distracted chasing a newer opportunity.

SearchCIO has just released results of their survey of 275 IT executives, and as anyone would suspect, companies both large and small are reducing their IT budgets for 2009. In large enterprises (companies with more than 1,000 employees), 42% of respondents are reducing IT budgets from 2008. In mid-size organizations, a third indicated budget cuts, with another third just holding the line.

Maximizing sales rep performance is no easy task. 📈 Traditional sales training methods focus heavily on the first few weeks in the sales role. Companies dedicate time, resources, and budget to onboarding new hires, only for them to forget what was learned in those first few weeks, lose motivation, and struggle to come to grips with their role.

Upgrading older generation networked storage devices to the latest generation can be a great way to help save costs. These new frames have several advantages over prior generations to help reduce capital costs, and more importantly save operating expenses: 1) Virtual drive provisioning enables the SAN to present a large amount of capacity to a host, then consume space—only as needed—from a shared storage pool.

The economic downturn has IT executives scrambling to defend budgets, avoid cutbacks, and help the business survive. In times of crisis, CFOs invariably turn up the heat on CIOs, and although IT spending is a modest 3.1% of revenue on average, because IT is seen within most organizations as a cost center, it is usually at the top of the list for spending cuts. [1] Unfairly, as prior times of crisis have proven, IT is cut proportionately more than most other business groups.
