ROI Model Assumptions

Server consolidation is conservatively estimated based on the number of servers:
- < 50 servers virtualized – 8:1 consolidation ratio
- 50 to < 200 servers virtualized – 10:1 consolidation ratio
- 200 or more servers virtualized – 12:1 consolidation ratio
Server consolidation ratio is halved for productivity and business critical servers being protected with everRun VM.
Downtime costs are based on industry estimates for 350 person company. The ROI model prorates for a bigger or smaller company based on number of servers inputted.
While server virtualization improves IT efficiency, the model does not assume any reduction in staff.
Additional benefits such as savings from reduced provisioning time and reduced recovery time have been excluded from this model.
Design and implementation costs estimates double at 200 servers to account for the increased planning and design requirements for large implementations.
Citrix XenServer and Marathon everRun VM software pricing is MSRP, no volume discounts have been applied.
