IDC also inquired about the number of downtime incidents and amount of downtime before and after the implementation, as well as the percentage of users affected and their average loaded salary Based on an average loaded salary for the first year of $32.30 per hour, and annual 5 percent increases, the savings in user productivity averaged close to $1.4 million annually over three years, or $9,023 per 100 users
