“We’re getting more than we ever did with IBM! Origina help us understand and transform our digital estate, and saved us between 40 and 50 percent off our annual IBM software support and maintenance costs.”

Matt Turner, Channels & IT Transformation

“Origina… helps users of some IBM enterprise software products (such as Websphere and Tivoli) make savings of up to 50 percent annually on their software support and maintenance fees. In addition, by delaying or even removing the need in some circumstances, for forced upgrades Origina say the savings can soar to 90 percent.”

“Origina rearchitected the environment for a smoother online customer experience and could resolve tickets in less than an hour, vs. IBM which took a minimum of 12 hours. The result? Savings in the tens of millions and better software support service.”

“Spending $1.4 million on a product that would be shelved in months made no sense at all. We also checked our Cognos support history; our system is stable and mature. We’ve never raised a high priority issue with IBM requiring a custom patch or upgrade. With that in mind, we were confident that Origina could deliver on its promises.”
