Leading
technology integrator SCC has said that companies face a key strategic
decision that they must either get right or face missing out on the
potential benefits of virtualisation projects. The
statement follows reports that many server and desktop virtualisation
projects are failing to meet their objectives. Responding to claims
that only four per cent of UK customers are achieving the expected ROI
from virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) installations, Europe's
largest independent technology solutions provider believes that IT
departments must proceed carefully to avoid making similar mistakes.
"Companies across the UK are facing one of the biggest decisions
of the decade as they consider the long overdue upgrade to Windows 7. If they take the right path they'll get the
desktop of the future, but if they get it wrong they will be on the verge of making a hugely
expensive mistake," said Rhys
Sharp, Chief Technology Officer at SCC.
Latest
survey results indicate that some 48% of IT decision makers remain
uncertain or unconvinced by the returns on recently implemented
virtualisation projects, with many believing that the potential ROI
from such implementations has been overstated. According to the market
leading technology group however, those
customers
finding it difficult to achieve the ROI promised by vendors are, in the
main, not taking the long term strategic view required to make a
success of the virtualisation journey. "This
is not a simple case of looking at savings over one or two years -
you've got to consider the refresh costs of
your entire infrastructure. It's all about getting the journey right,
and there's no doubt that if you approach a £1million to £2million
upgrade project with
VDI already deployed, the migration costs could be 70%-90% less," said Sharp.
"The
move towards virtualisation is one of the defining moments of desktop
infrastructure, and if you don't get it right you will miss out on a
huge opportunity. It has never been so important to get the right
partners in to help you decide what services you need to maximise the
potential benefits of these accelerating technologies."
