-
Increased competitiveness - You can focus on your core
business, rather than recruiting and deploying IT
resources to manage your infrastructure. The time and
energy devoted to storage management can be eliminated,
freeing IT staff to focus on more strategic endeavors.
-
Flexibility to meet growth and surges in demand - WCF
manages your storage utilization and will add capacity
as needed. Your business no longer has to be concerned
about acquiring new storage prior to running out of
existing capacity.
-
Rapid application deployment - Companies can readily
deploy new applications - without concern for
acquisition of additional storage capacity. The WCF Private Storage Utility empowers you to respond quickly
to new business situations with the appropriate
applications, regardless of their storage demands.
-
Off the balance sheet - expense vs. capital - Since
you do not own or lease the Private Storage Utility, you
can administer it as a monthly expense, rather than as a
capital expenditure. This is a much simpler and more
streamlined process for most businesses.
-
Reduced operational expenses - Companies can minimize
the need for internal IT staffs to manage applications.
Additionally, the high cost of recruiting an experienced
IT staff can be reduced.
-
Simplified, predictable business management -
"Pay as you grow" payment structure as well as
monthly accounting reports.
-
Secure outsourcing - The outsourcing of overhead
associated with the storage utility and associated
storage management makes costs more predictable and
simplifies planning. At the same time, the private,
onsite storage provides the security that enterprise
businesses demand.
-
Freedom of choice - Unlike public storage utilities,
the WCF Private Storage Utility has onsite storage,
assuring you of proximity to your storage and more
control over the information infrastructure.
-
Recovery of costs - Capacity and utilization reports
from WCF allow the IT department to track usage and
charge the internal storage customers on a
capacity-per-user basis.
-
Business continuance - The combination of premium 24x7
service, no single-point-of-failure, and platform
independent remote management assures you of continuous
data access and protection.
