JAMF Software - Casper Suite Return on Investment Analysis
Introduction
MDC Partners is a portfolio of best-in-class marketing communications companies whose strategic and innovative solutions lead the marketing industry, attract the finest talent, and achieve outstanding results for clients.
We are a publicly traded company with compliance requirements driven by
Sarbanes-Oxley and our clients. Because of the computing platform widely used in our industry, many organizations have difficulties executing controls systematically that enforce their IT and corporate policies.
The Casper Suite of products has allowed us to define and efficiently implement controls through a centrally managed set of tools. The tool set has allowed us to focus our efforts on growing the organization through effective use of IT and not requiring our resources to spend their time on maintenance.
Currently several of our partner firms are using the Casper Suite and many more are in various stages of evaluating, acquiring and deploying the tools.
Cost Savings:
Automation tools are widely used so administrators can focus their efforts on tasks that benefit the organization far more than the utilitarian functions that often consume their time. Return on investment for administrative and management tools is a function of efficiency and time savings directly driven by labor cost. The more efficiently people work, the more productive they are, therefore less people are required to support the organization.
The time for tasks, such as provisioning a computer, is significantly reduced by the ability to create a standard image by class of user and push out that image to new machines or to devices that need to be re-deployed. The process of configuring a machine manually used to be approximately 4 hours per machine. Utilizing the Casper Suite, the same process is now performed in about 15 minutes.
