Cost Optimization
You renew by age, not by need
PCs replaced unnecessarily, unused licenses, idle hardware, oversizing. IT costs rise while waste goes unmeasured.
1
PCs are replaced even though they work very well
The renewal plan is age-based: 4 years = replacement. Result: struggling 3-year-old PCs stay in service, and perfectly fine 5-year-old PCs get replaced.
Unnecessary purchases (800-1,500 EUR per PC). End-of-life PCs hurting user experience. A poorly allocated budget.
Renewal is based on real state: CPU performance, disk health (SMART), RAM usage, experience score. PCs to renew, cascade to less demanding profiles, and keep are identified.
2
Expensive licenses are assigned to people who do not use them
2,000 licenses for software at 50 EUR/month. But how many users actually open it? No one knows. Renewal rolls over automatically.
Licenses paid for nothing. A software budget that grows every year without justification.
Real usage is measured: frequency, duration, last open. Licenses unused for X days are flagged for recovery.
3
Unused PCs stay assigned for months
Departures, role changes, long-term leave. PCs stay on or in storage, assigned to people who no longer use them. No one detects it.
Tied-up hardware. Associated licenses still running. A wrong inventory.
Inactive PCs for X days are detected automatically. The Workplace team can reclaim, reassign, or destock them.
4
Some applications consume disproportionate resources
Users complain about slowness. Hardware is recent. But one app uses 40% CPU constantly, or antivirus slows every file open.
Lost productivity. Slowness tickets. Premature hardware renewals to compensate for a software issue.
The heaviest applications are identified and ranked by impact on experience. The Workplace team can act: update, configuration, replacement.
5
High-end PCs for office productivity use
A 1,500 EUR PC with 32 GB RAM and an i7 goes to a profile that only uses Outlook and Excel. The PC uses 15% of its capacity.
500-700 EUR overspend per workstation versus real need. Multiplied across hundreds of endpoints.
Real usage is compared to hardware capacity. Consumption profiles are identified. Future purchases match real need.
