Complexity = Indecision = Downtime.
Programming lapses. Disruption of breaking news. Disconnects between writers, producers and news sources. Missed financial reporting deadlines. All are consequences of planned or unplanned downtime.
Whether you're in the media, broadcasting or cable industry, the complexity of your IT systems can often create failures and indecision that results in downtime. And downtime will cause customers to turn the channel, kill your production budget, and demoralize employees.
