The ROI of ChromeOS: A Forrester Study
We're excited to share the results of a new study on the economic impact of ChromeOS, which highlights the significant value it can bring to your organization. The Forrester Consulting study, commissioned by Google, provides a detailed look at the financial and operational benefits of adopting ChromeOS in a business environment. You can read the official blog post about the study here. Why This Study Matters The study, based on in-depth interviews with four ChromeOS customers and five Google employees, offers a real-world look at how ChromeOS helps organizations cut costs and boost efficiency. For a composite organization of 10,000 employees using 3,000 Chromebooks, the findings were significant. The full report can be found here and will also be available soon in French, German, and Japanese. Key Findings and Results The study found that the composite organization realized a $6.8 million in savings over a three-year period, resulting in a 208% return on investment (ROI). These impressive results were driven by significant benefits across four key areas: Increased end-user productivity: Employees are more efficient with a fast, simple, and secure OS. Lowered device and licensing costs: ChromeOS devices and management are more cost-effective. Strengthened security posture: Built-in security features reduce the risk of cyber threats. Reduced IT support needs: The simple and manageable nature of ChromeOS minimizes the need for IT support. Learn More: Webinar To dive deeper into these findings, we invite you to an upcoming webinar. On September 18th, the ChromeOS team will host a session to walk through the report’s findings, discuss the key benefits of ChromeOS, and explain how you can leverage the ChromeOS Readiness Assessment to identify users ready to transition.
