Challenges Faced

Lowering IT costs and providing a solid ROI for IT projects are among the top challenges for IT executives. Gartner reports that a locked-down and well-managed desktop PC can be 42% less expensive to keep than an unmanaged one, and that the salary cost of a help desk employee can be estimated to be between $21.63 and $40.86 per hour. The average help desk cost per contact is estimated to be $23.09.

The Faronics Survey had 1,293 responses that drew the following picture: Organizations using Deep Freeze reported 40% fewer support tickets per desktop compared to organizations not using Deep Freeze, equating to over $52,000 in annual savings per 1,000 computers. Organizations that have Deep Freeze on ≥ 90% of desktops reported a 63% reduction in support tickets with the lowest ratio of 2.14 support tickets per desktop compared to 5.76 for organizations not using Deep Freeze.
