It costs around 20 cents to buy 1GB of storage, however, it costs around $3,500 to review 1GB of storage.

Calculating the cost and return on investment of technology upgrades is a crucial
part of making the case to upper management.
Today, the cost of an unmanaged email system can weigh heavily on an organization
especially during litigation. AIIM designed this Email Management ROI
Calculator Tool to help you move your organization forward in its email
management procedures.
This tool can be used to identify and analyze the
current costs of managing email in your organization, the total cost of ownership (TCO)
of an email management solution, the benefits of managing email more
efficiently, and the effective return on investment of the email management
solution.
The tool consists of three tabs. The first tab asks for information that can
be used to analyze the current costs of email to your organization today. The
second identifies and quantifies the costs of implementing an effective
email management solution, including procurement costs and costs to operate
the solution over a three-year period. The third identifies the benefits to
be realized from the email management solution as compared to the existing
costs from Tab 1 and applies the costs and benefits in order to determine an ROI
figure.
It should be noted that this tool is only as accurate as the data that is entered.
Users are encouraged to be absolutely honest and thorough in their calculation
of costs and benefits in order to ensure that the ROI figure is as accurate as
possible.
It
is also important to consider any non-quantifiable benefits that may result from more
effective email management, such as faster, more effective decision making
or compliance with regulatory requirements.
