Green IT: Start Saving Money

Start Saving Money on Energy

• Many data centers face an energy shortage & out-of-control energy costs

– The average enterprise pays $21M-$27M/year for data center electricity

– Data center energy costs are now covered in the CIO’s budget, either directly or through cross-charges, for 83% of enterprises

• With Symantec’s software approach, lower your data center energy costs by 20+% before you pay high CAPEX for new hardware
