Questions
Frequently asked
- How is downtime cost worked out?
- Staff cost per hour (people × monthly pay ÷ working hours) plus the share of hourly revenue that stops when IT is down. Multiply by the hours lost per incident and incidents per year.
- Is this the full cost?
- No. It leaves out lost data, damaged reputation, overtime and penalties, so the real cost is usually higher.
- How do I cut downtime?
- Monitoring, tested backups, a second internet line, two-step sign-in and a team that responds quickly. We can review your setup and show which fix saves the most.
- Is anything I enter saved?
- No. The calculator runs in your browser. Nothing is sent unless you ask us for a review.
