Finances also came into play in their decision to move to Google Apps. Taylor Woodrow estimates that they are saving approximately £1 million on infrastructure and support costs.
You have read that correctly. Taylor Woodrow are saving £1 Million by switching 1800 employees over to Google Apps Premier Edition. That is pretty impressive and makes a lot of sense. A massive amount of sense.
Just think. 1800 people happily using Gmail, Google Docs and Spreadsheets, with zero set up costs in terms of software and hardware. Talk about putting the IT department out of business. Not only do you have cost savings but you have the ease of access to everyone’s files (all in the cloud), all backed up and available 24-7.
Looking into theappleofmyi crystal ball, I can see more and more companies doing this. Less hassle. Less money. Better reliability. What more do you want? Ok, there will be the normal learning curve of people adopting the new technology and software, but most people are getting more and more confident with online web apps. Major kudos to Taylor Woodrow for doing this. Does anyone know of any other big corporate doing this?
