Windows 7: Optimize Your Desktop and Drive your Business Forward
The recession forced IT managers worldwide to delay their natural computer refresh cycles and in turn operating system upgrades. But with the global economy showing signs of recovery and tech spending set to increase this year across most geographies, Forrester anticipates that IT managers should begin to undergo their next major corporate computer refresh cycle by mid-to-late 2010. IT managers worldwide are gearing up for this major transformation project that introduces a new desktop operating system, productivity suite, browser, and set of applications on new computers. In this webcast, we discuss Windows 7 adoption in the commercial sector, the operating system migration challenges firms have encountered, lessons learned from early adopters, and benefits realized as a result of the upgrade to Windows 7.

Application Virtualization (App-v) Enterprise Return on Investment
Quantifying the business value of IT investment is vital in today's tough economic climate. Every investment is expected to show strong and tangible financial return. To help organizations assess the economic impact (business value) of deploying Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V), analysts Ben Gray and Jeffrey North of Forrester conducted an in-depth study of five enterprise companies worldwide.
Attend this webcast to hear how the new Forrester Total Economic Impact (TEI) model can be used to estimate tangible values of App-V in deployment scenarios. Ben and Jeffrey discuss the impact of App-V on labor, server hardware, PC/desktop hardware, application management, and helpdesk costs, and they demonstrate how you can use the TEI model to determine the financial return on your IT investments.
Presenters: Benjamin Gray, Senior Analyst, Desktop and Mobile Infrastructure & Operations, Forrester Research and Jeffrey North, Principal Consultant, Forrester Research.
