Reduce IT spending while improving application performance
Poor application performance has massive impacts on users’ productivity and customers’ satisfaction. At the same time, the IT department faces strong pressure to transform application delivery and reduce expenses. With a typical TCO of $2 to $6 /user/month, Ipanema enables savings on many aspects of the IT budget that represents from $400 to $1,200/user/month in most enterprises.
Satisfy customers - B-to-C enterprises, like retail and hospitality, have their business largely dependent on customers’ satisfaction. By implementing Ipanema, they can reduce their customers waiting time at the front desk, provide rapid answers to enquiries and ensure quick in-store payments.
Protect investments - enterprises invest in collaboration tools like Unified Communications and SaaS collaboration software to support new business processes. To improve its agility in supporting the business, the IT department implements server consolidation, cloud computing or desktop virtualization. Each of these transformations represent a cost of 10s of $/user/month. For a much lower cost, Ipanema makes each of them perform better, improving user satisfaction and accelerating adoption of new tools.
Increase user productivity - saving a mere 5’ per day increases employee productivity by 1%, representing $50+/month/user. By guaranteeing excellent and constant application performance in every circumstance, Ipanema maximizes employee productivity and satisfaction.
Increase IT efficiency - Ipanema automatically solves most of application performance brownouts before the users feel the pain, decreasing number of calls to the service desk. The root cause of the remaining issues is easily understood, reducing the workload and the cost to support application performance over the network.
Reduce bandwidth requirements - The lack of traffic organization leads to massively over-sizing networks. Ipanema makes a much better usage of the bandwidth and helps enterprises to avoid bandwidth upgrades for recreational usage, provisioning only the bandwidth needed for business critical applications. The achievable bandwidth optimization factor is typically x2 to x3.
Avoid bandwidth upgrades - Internet traffic is doubling every 10 to 18 months; cloud-based applications add new fast growing traffic. Soon video traffic will consume more than 50% of the bandwidth. Ipanema’s dynamic control allows enterprises to shift bandwidth upgrades by up to 3 years without impacting their users’ productivity and satisfaction.
Use low cost infrastructure - Ipanema enables enterprises to benefit from low cost and large Internet capacity of a hybrid network, reducing the cost per Mbps by a factor that can reach x2 to x4.
