Potential Savings in Detail
Where the savings actually occur
The benefits of Mobile Device Management are evident in three areas: when deploying new devices, in daily operations, and when securing data and access. Manual work is eliminated everywhere – and with it a large part of the costs.
Rollout & Onboarding
Without MDM, every device is unboxed, set up, and loaded with accounts and apps individually. With zero-touch enrollment (Apple Business Manager, Android Zero Touch, Samsung Knox), the device registers itself upon first startup and pulls its complete profile.
- Device deployment: Preconfigured profiles instead of manual device-by-device setup.
- Training: Devices arrive ready for use by employees; training materials are included with Cortado.
- Replacement & device swap: A replacement device is ready in a short time in the same state as the old one – no ticket, no workbench required.
Ongoing Operations & Support
The largest cost block does not occur during rollout, but in daily operations: app updates, configuration changes, support requests, and employee downtime. Centralized management replaces individual case handling.
- Install & update apps: Deployments run once centrally for the entire fleet instead of device by device.
- IT support: Fewer tickets, and each ticket is resolved faster because IT can view and control the device remotely.
- Productivity losses: Less waiting time due to blocked or misconfigured devices – the most expensive, often invisible cost factor.
Security & Risk Costs
Security is not a soft factor, but concrete working time plus avoided damage. Checking policies manually on every device does not scale – centrally enforced policies do.
- Policy Management: Passcode, encryption, network, and app rules are defined once and automatically enforced on all devices.
- Device Loss: Lost devices can be immediately locked or selectively wiped – preventing data leakage and replacement purchases in the dark.
- Accountability: Documented configurations and reports save effort during audits and GDPR compliance verification.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the ROI calculator
How realistic are the underlying assumptions?
expand_more
The values are based on empirical data from Cortado projects and common industry benchmarks for IT efforts – such as setup times per device, ticket volume, and processing time. They are deliberately chosen to be conservative. Use the info icon in the detail table to see the assumptions behind each item.
What IT hourly rate is applied?
expand_more
The calculation uses 35,00 € per hour as a mixed rate for internal IT and employee time. If your actual rate is higher – as is often the case with external service providers – the savings increase proportionally. You can simply scale the values: double the hourly rate, double the time savings in Euro.
Are the costs for Cortado MDM already deducted from the savings?
expand_more
Yes. Both the annual subscription fees and the one-time implementation costs (initial setup by our team plus internal IT effort) are included in the calculation as cost items. The reported amount is the net savings after investment.
From how many devices is Cortado MDM worthwhile?
expand_more
The effect becomes noticeable even in the small double-digit range because the time effort per device without MDM grows linearly, while central management does not. The larger the fleet and the more distributed the teams, the stronger the leverage – check this directly via the device selection above.
When is the investment amortized?
expand_more
In most scenarios, within the first year: The one-time implementation costs are typically offset by the time saved during deployment and in the first months of support. From the second year onwards, the one-time block is completely eliminated, while the ongoing savings remain.
Does the calculation also apply to mixed Android and Apple fleets?
expand_more
Yes. Cortado MDM manages Android, iOS/iPadOS, macOS, and tvOS in the same interface. Especially in mixed environments, the savings are often greater than calculated because parallel tools and processes per platform are eliminated.
Can I get a calculation for our company?
expand_more
Sure. In a brief conversation, we will go through your device count, platforms, and processes to create an assessment based on your own data – including a suitable plan recommendation.
