Astadia Launches ROI Calculator for Cloud Computing

ADDISON, Texas, Aug. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Astadia, a pure-play Cloud computing integrator and top Salesforce.com partner, today announced the launch of the I.T. Cloud Transformation (ITX) ROI Calculator which is a free online service.  Results are available in British Pounds Sterling, and in US Dollars at www.astadia.com/itx_us/.

Many I.T. professionals realize the compelling business case for the Cloud. A 2010 report on I.T. spending priorities by Kaufman Bros. shows a strong trend of I.T. infrastructure consolidating or rationalizing software applications, servers, data centers and back-office functions to cheaper web-based software applications.

Many I.T. leaders struggle to assess which Cloud platforms are appropriate to their needs. Others lack time or resources to build the business case to move specific technologies to the chosen platform. The ITX ROI Calculator gives a fast estimate of which pieces of an I.T. infrastructure and application portfolio will cost less and perform better when moved to the Cloud, specifically to the Force.com platform.  

"This new tool shows how much money I.T. departments could be leaving on the table," says Cory Vander Jagt, VP, Astadia ITX.  "Premise based I.T. solutions leak money at three different inflection points whenever a company gets bigger or smaller. Standardizing an application environment in the Cloud consistently provides elasticity at all three points."  

The Astadia I.T. Cloud Transformation (ITX) practice, helps enterprise I.T. teams navigate Cloud implementations on every major Cloud computing platform: Amazon Web Services, Google, and Force.com.

Astadia helps business leaders and I.T. teams accurately estimate the financial returns of their Cloud computing projects. Then, Astadia makes sure the projected ROI actually materializes. Astadia's 4 step ITX process for doing this is described in more detail at www.astadia.com/itx.
