Outages and downtimes can wreak havoc in today’s unpredictable IT environment. A Dun & Bradstreet study found that nearly 60 percent of Fortune 500 companies experience a minimum of 1.6 hours of downtime every week.
Uptime Institute 2021 Global Data Center Survey (via Facility Executive) reveals that outage, while less pervasive than in previous years, have become way more expensive. Over 60% of the respondents reported losing more than $100,000 to downtime. Of that 60%, 15% lost over $1 million.
Another study suggests Fortune 500 companies lose $46 million every year in revenue due to unforeseen outages and downtimes.
An unplanned outage is exorbitantly expensive in terms of actual costs and the problems it causes in the real world.
Services like email, chat, billing, and customer support unexpectedly come to a screeching halt. This leads to a loss in revenue potential and an increased chance of fraud or data breaches.
Inaccessibility of vital services to customers or employees may even result in legal repercussions in extreme cases.
In a GlobalScape survey, more than 50%f IT professionals said their workforce has been unable to send or receive critical and timely files due to system availability issues.
Not only is this frustrating for end users, but according to 76% of IT execs recently surveyed, it is dangerous, considering the information-sharing behavior of employees who are forced to resort to consumer platforms like WhatsApp & Dropbox for sharing sensitive business information with each other.
When it comes to outages, organizations typically only think about monetary loss.
However, awful customer experience and the business’s damaged reputation are two important aspects that companies should take into account.
Once your reputation is ruined, it can be hard to regain your customer’s trust and make up for the damage done to the perceived value of your business.
