Putting A Price On Love
Gold, principal and founder of the research firm J.Gold Associates, tallied up the estimated cost per user for a company to switch from BlackBerry to another service, such as Good Technology, on a Palm Treo, and SearchMobileComputing.com reported his $845 figure. Gold breaks it down to $300 per user for new devices, $280 for lost productivity (about four hours, he allows), and the remainder for buying and deploying the software, and training. Interesting reading. And more expensive than flowers and candy. |
