b2b edi:evolve LOWERING TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP CHECKLIST TWO Gateway automation. A single B2B gateway solution that provides a self-service dashboard and automatic partner on-boarding requires a smaller workforce to manage. Where it took six full-time employees to handle several non-automated gateways, it might take just two people after consolidation — cutting labor costs by over half. THREE FOUR Responsive support. Combining multiple existing B2B gateways into a single solution that provides functional and technical application support services automatically can reduce labor requirements – and costs — by almost half. Fewer personnel can maintain a 24/7 service window and provide rapid problem resolution. Happier customers. More business. Greater ROI. Fewer licenses. You save a lot by having one gateway that does the work of many. instead of paying for three gateways, three software licenses and three gateway maintenance contracts, you can consolidate down to one product, one license and one maintenance plan, further lowering your total cost of ownership. FIVE Security and uptime. You can consolidate down to a secure B2B gateway and keep business running by ensuring high availability and dependable disaster recovery. A single B2B gateway that helps keep your business from stopping in its tracks due to a fire or data breach will cut your cost of ownership a lot better than a bunch of gateways that won’t. 7 ways B2B gateway consolidation lowers your TCO SEVEN The road to digital business success goes through your B2B gateway. But if you’re relying on several gateways, reaching your destination gets pricey. How can you drive down costs? Combine them into a single B2B gateway that uses automation and cloud technology. Here are 7 ways consolidation can take your total cost of ownership to new lows. ONE Less of everything. Consolidation reduces the number of B2B gateways, so fewer software licenses, databases and other resources are needed. Labor savings alone is substantial. If it takes three full-time employees to oversee everything before consolidation, the right B2B gateway may require just one person afterwards — reducing costs by at least 50%. SIX Database economies. Obviously, a B2B gateway solution that ensures sound database access and availability is critical. Keep it that way but consolidate so that, instead of maintaining two or three different databases with multiple instances, just a single database and one instance per environment are necessary. This reduces license and maintenance costs. Easy on infrastructure. The lower the number of B2B gateways, the less taxing the system is on network connectivity, load balancing, data capacity and backup, power supply, cooling systems and other facility resources. Consolidating three B2B gateways down to one means that many fewer product servers, test servers and dev servers are required, saving almost 50%. Now’s the time to lower your total cost of ownership through B2B gateway consolidation, cloud services and greater visibility. Learn more.
