First Year’s Savings*2: $22,800 for
CRM, $17,800 for Sales Force
Automation
*1 Small business configuration: Redundant Dell PowerEdge 1850 costs
$8,528 (does not include Dell service contract). 80GB DLT Backup adds $1,629.
Large corporate servers cost significantly more.
*2
Note that salary, payroll and facility costs are not included. A rule of
thumb for non-hosted systems IT costs is 35% of an IT employee for 5 or less
CRM users. Increase by 10% for each additional 5 CRM users.
Startup CostsChoosing Onweald means little or no startup costs! A 5 user
system’s first year savings range from $17-22K. Adding more users
increases the savings even more. Extra savings occurs in subsequent years
since Onweald includes support in the service fee.
Businesses often don’t consider the costs for installing and
configuring software. Costs are measured in both time and money. A typical
CRM installation for a small company takes months. Onweald’s solution takes
days.
Avoiding up front costs allow companies to gain the benefit
of CRM now and leverage assets in other areas.
Software and Support Costs
Software costs vary widely and usually don’t include support
and maintenance fees. Onweald’s low monthly fees are for support and
maintenance. The software is included at no charge. Some companies quote low
fees for the software but then will not sell the software without expensive
service contracts. With Onweald, there are no hidden costs
