Overview:

Global training and consulting firm, FranklinCovey Co., and global retailer, FranklinCovey Products, took advantage of a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement and Hyper-V virtualization software to reduce software licensing costs while expanding capabilities. They upgraded to the Enterprise CAL Suite and used Windows Server 2008 Datacenter with Hyper-V to create separate virtual environments for each company's operations. Each used Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services to host remote connectivity applications without a virtual private network. As a result, FranklinCovey Co. saved more than U.S.$500,000 in hardware, licensing, and energy costs. FranklinCovey Products saved $150,000 on call center setup and more than $90,000 on hardware and licensing for its internal domain. Both reduced software testing time by 70 percent and expedited deployment and training with Software Assurance benefits.
