Overview:

For this study, IDC interviewed IT staff from 15 North American, European, and Asian companies ranging in size from 200 to 10,000 employees and between 20 and 900 IT staff. Industries represented include banking, consulting, telecommunications, education, and technology. Four of these companies were identified directly by HP, and the other 11 were recruited from a customer list provided by HP. Illustrative quotes taken from these interviews are provided throughout this paper.

The companies interviewed for this study are using at least one element and as many as five elements of the HP Insight Control solution. Overall, IDC found that HP Insight Control users were able to realize a significant return on investment, with ROI in excess of 400% when implementing a single HP Insight Control product and over 500% when implementing all HP Insight Control products and payback periods of well under one year.
