Using the Copperleaf Value Framework to value IT investments
IT departments have very similar challenges to their asset management counterparts. They need to manage a pipeline of candidate projects, and allocate their limited funds and resources to get the best results. The Copperleaf Value Framework can be configured to measure the key things that deliver benefit to the organization so that trade-offs can be made with confidence. Some common value measures to assess the benefits of IT investments include cost, financial benefits, IT capacity risk, security risk, license risk, innovation premium, business continuity risk, etc.

SaaS vs. on-premise: which implementation model is best?
When evaluating enterprise software applications, there are two key questions to consider:
- Which licensing model is best suited to your organization – Software as a Service (SaaS) or a perpetual license?
- Where should you run the application – in your own data centers or hosted in the cloud?
Each licensing model and hosting option presents its own unique advantages—and there’s no no one-size-fits-all solution. It comes down to understanding the pros and cons of the various options to decide what makes the most sense for your organization.
