Savings in the office

Our data on how much businesses can save by taking simple measures to IT costs has been receiving widespread coverage. Today it was the turn of the Irish Times here in their weekly technology section, which I have also pasted in below.

Savings in the office

Companies could save more than €40,000 a year by eliminating software they don’t need, a new survey has revealed. Research by Dublin-based software company Openplain found that companies don’t use 70 per cent of the software they have bought, and could save €420 per worker by removing it. In a medium-sized company, this could translate into savings of €42,000 a year.

A further €20,000 could be saved every year by ensuring employees switch off computers at night and weekends, Openplain said.
