According to IDC, 64% of large organizations spend more than 10% of IT budgets on data protection, compared with just 17% of organizations in 2019.

IDC’s Methodology

Based on interviews with organizations using OwnBackup, IDC performed a three-step process to calculate the ROI and payback period:
Gathered quantitative benefit information during the interviews using a before-and-after assessment of the impact of using OwnBackup.
Created a complete investment (three-year total cost analysis) profile based on the interviews. Investments go beyond the initial and annual costs of using OwnBackup and can include additional costs related to migrations, planning, consulting, and staff or user training.
Conducted a depreciated cash flow analysis of the benefits and investments for the organizations’ use of OwnBackup over a three-year period. ROI is the ratio of the net present value (NPV) and the discounted investment. The payback period is the point at which cumulative benefits equal the initial investment.

Forward-thinking organizations are increasing their IT spend to protect data. Isn’t it time you do too?
