Total Economic Impact™ of Isilon's Clustered Storage System

Caught between ever-increasing storage capacity requirements and an environment marked by flat or shrinking IT budgets, enterprise storage managers are taking an even deeper look at the return on investment of their storage purchases.

"The Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) of Isilon's Clustered Storage System" is a Forrester Consulting Study commissioned by Isilon which examines the total economic impact and return on investment (ROI) that enterprises may realize by deploying clustered storage.

The Forrester study concluded that on average, the interviewed Isilon customers achieved the following benefits over traditional storage solutions:

• a 97% reduction in management resources
• a 22% percent increase in storage utilization which resulted, for an environment of the size used in the study, in a 37 percent decrease in the volume of storage capacity required.

The overall result of these advantages was a risk-adjusted ROI of 125 percent and a payback period within five months.
