*This comprehensive ROI calculator uses industry best practices with benchmark data from trusted industry sources and real-world results from BoxTone customers. Gartner studies show typical annualized Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of $1,600 to $2,400 per user per year with 4 to 6 mobile issues per user per year. Assuming three year amortization, this TCO calculation includes cost of software, hardware, maintenance for devices and servers (mobility servers, SQL, mail servers), data plans, internal support and operations staff (help desk, messaging team, operations, engineering), plus provisioning, user training and administration but does not include voice plans. Ipsos-Reid identifies an average annual mobile user productivity ROI gain of $14,000 to $20,000 per user per year with TCO of $1,100 to $1,600 per user per year.
†The Help Desk Institute provides benchmark data for typical incident support costs of level 1 at $25, level 2 at $100 and level 3 at $275. Industry surveys show typical mobile user mean time to repair of 30-45 minutes (with provisioning issues frequently consuming 60-90 minutes) and with the majority of issues escalated from Level 1 to level 2, Level 3 and/or Mobility Admin at higher cost.
