Case Studies

At a pharmaceutical company, the business was pressuring IT to find budget cuts anywhere possible. They never thought to look at Office 365 as they felt they were correctly licensed. They ended up identifying 11% of their subscriptions that were unused and reduced costs by $225,000. “If you asked me again, I’m still not sure I’d believe it. 1000 Users not using at least email! It was true, we had the data needed to investigate it. I was shocked to find not only Accounts that were not active or even humans that had licenses but that we also had a large population of employees in our distribution centers that didn’t even use a single Office 365 service”

With over 96,000 Office 365 Subscriptions assigned in the Office 365 Tenant but only 87,000 employees this Research and Scientific Sales Company wasn’t happy with Microsoft. In less than 4 months, they identified waste in how they were assigning subscriptions and also found savings of 11% (over $2M annually). “Amazing is all I can say. With a few minutes’ effort to download reports out of our tenant, we received useful data that helped us find waste and reduced our costs by over $2M annually. We couldn’t have done this by ourselves.”
