Overview

Economic Perspective
Northern Storage ChargeBack puts storage into economical perspective, making each byte count.

As any organisation will attest, holding the line on disk usage is an increasing and ongoing challenge. Storage ChargeBack is a resource accounting module that makes up part of the complete SRM solution found in the Northern Storage Suite.

NSS is a well-rounded solution to storage resource management that will slot into any Windows network scenario and is offered at substantially less than many overpriced – and overrated – enterprise products currently on the market. Dave Mitchell, PC-Pro Magazine

Storage ChargeBack – An Economical Approach to Storage Management

Because storage is often viewed as a free commodity, there is little user incentive to conserve space. Storage ChargeBack is a resource accounting module that assigns a price to increments of storage, making users (individuals, departments, etc.) accountable for the space they consume. This approach exacts a price on users who inefficiently manage their allotted space…and provides powerful incentive for economical and intelligent use of available resources. By providing users with a self-policing mechanism, the IT organisation now has an ally in efficient storage resource management.

Making Each Byte Count

Storage ChargeBack provides you with a complete, 360-degree perspective on costs and trends. It provides internal and external billing – enabling you to ‘charge back’ the cost of storage to the end-user. Whether you want to charge departments for increments of storage real estate above a certain threshold or place a premium on the types of data stored, Storage ChargeBack’s approach holds users directly accountable for their storage.

With Storage ChargeBack, users understand the costs associated with storage. And now have a very compelling reason to take a proactive approach to the management of their storage resources.

Storage ChargeBack is available as a 30-day trial. Click here to download latest version.

ESM Northern Storage Suite Review

Feedback

“Storage resources per se are relatively inexpensive, when compared with disk prices five years ago. But a disk is not a resource unless it is properly managed, this is where the real cost is found. The figures vary, but storage administration costs between 3 and 10 times the price of the hardware per megabyte.”
