Endpoint Central Users Achieve $4.5 Million Savings and 442% ROI, According to Recent Study
ManageEngine has released findings from a Total Economic Impact study conducted by Forrester, which evaluated the financial and operational impact of its Endpoint Central unified endpoint management and security platform over a three-year period. The research revealed that organisations using Endpoint Central achieved a remarkable return on investment of 442% within three years, with a payback period of less than six months. Customers realised total benefits of $4.5 million during the analysed timeframe, resulting in a net present value of $3.7 million attributed to the platform’s deployment. Mathivanan Venkatachalam, Vice President of ManageEngine, expressed satisfaction in seeing meaningful outcomes reflected in customer experiences, noting that many organisations significantly reduced operational overhead by consolidating multiple tools into Endpoint Central.
The study highlighted several operational efficiencies gained through the adoption of Endpoint Central, including a reduction in manual patching efforts, with organisations experiencing up to 95% less manual intervention due to automated patch management. This improvement generated productivity gains estimated at $913,000 over three years. Additionally, the consolidation of legacy tools onto the Endpoint Central platform yielded savings exceeding $1 million during the reviewed period. The implementation of secure self-service utilities and remote troubleshooting further decreased help desk workloads and enhanced end-user productivity. The study also noted improvements in compliance and cybersecurity, with one IT director reporting an increase in device compliance rates from 70% to over 95%, leading to more stable devices and reduced cyber insurance costs.
