  1. ChangeBASEWindows 7/8 Migrations Presented by:

  2. Agenda • The application compatibility challenges in the Market • Technology drivers for application compatibility tools • Standard phases of an application migration project • Achieving application readiness using ChangeBASE & Asset Manager • Key Benefits of ChangeBASE • Selling ChangeBASE • Key differentiators

  3. Application Compatibility Challenges in the Market

  4. “Application compatibility is the single biggest blocker to enterprise Windows 7 migration.”-Chris JacksonArchitectApplication Compatibility, Microsoft

  5. Time is running out! Q4-13 Q1-14 Q2-14 Q3-14 Assess, Remediate, UAT 500 applications ChangeBASE less than 5 months Manual Testing at least 12-18 months 8 April 2014 Using ChangeBASE End of Life Manual Testing

  6. What is the cost of doing nothing? 50-90% The amount of apps you can eliminate through rationalization $3,000 The avg. amount each retired app saves an org $870 vs. $168 Annual cost per PC per year for XP vs. Windows 7 $150k - $5m Microsoft extended XP support costs for year 1 for 750 – 25,000 devices 12-24 Months is the average amount of time needed for a OS migration 50% The amount of time and money you can save using automation

  7. Consequences of not automating application readiness

  8. Examples of Real Failed Deployments • Engineering Company – loss of $52,650 (USD) per month due to post migration outages and system downtime for one regional office alone • Government Organisation – Losing upwards of £20K per annum on one incompatible application alone • Petro-Chemical Company – Failed uninstallation of business critical application results in 450 man days of downtime and inability to meet business deadlines and respond to customer requests • Service Provider – Unable to meet SLAs due to highly manual and inconsistent packaging processes and QA • Regional Bank- Had to revert the entire organisation back to XP as a result of one of its business critical web applications failing Download our white paper “The Hidden Costs of Failed Deployments” from www.software.dell.com/changebase to learn more

  9. Technology drivers for application compatibly tools

  10. Technology drivers for application compatibility tools Windows 7/8 & Server Migrations Application Lifecycle Management Office 2010/2013 Virtualization Adoption • Application dependency Browser Migration • Application compatibility • XP end of life April 2014 • 12-18 month migration time • Determining which technology (App-V, XenApp, ThinApp, SWV) • Packaging Apps for Virtual deployments • Patch Tuesday releases every month • Converting non-std installers to MSI • Managing multiple platforms • IE8 embedded in Windows 7 • 1 in 3 apps are web based Quest Software is now a part of Dell 10

  11. Achieving app readiness using ChangeBASE & Asset Manager

  12. Automated Application Readiness Standard phases that should be followed as part of an application migration

  13. Automate Discovery & Rationalization with Asset Manager Asset Manager Discovery Edition • Automated software metering • License management automation • Visibility to license and compliance status; application usage; and contract, asset scan, and hardware resource status • Integration with SCCM and Active Directory • Discover and catalogue more than 85% of all software found in your clients environment

  14. Automate Application Readiness with ChangeBASE ChangeBASE allows you to: - • Assess and remediate applications for compatibility with: • Windows 7 • Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 • 32-bit and 64-bit architecture • Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2012 • Office 2010 and 2013 • App-V, ThinApp, XenApp Profiler and SWV • Terminal Server environment “RDSH” • IE 8,9,10 and Firefox • Re-package applications to MSI or Virtual format • Assess monthly security updates and patches • Write your own checks and fixes for company specific standards

  15. MSI Packaging Capability • Create, configure and test installation packages • Integrated MSI packaging capabilities – MSI Studio now included • Reduces need for expensive 3rd party MSI authoring tools

  16. Key Benefits of ChangeBASE

  17. Key Benefits Automated testing & remediation tools can reduce migrations time & costs by 50% Saves time & resources Improves understanding of time, costs and risks when moving to a new platform Improves decision making Reduces post-deployment failures with in-depth and standardized checks Increases deployment quality Identifies potential compatibility issues which could disrupt business Decreases risk and disruptions Quest Software is now a part of Dell

  18. Business Value of ChangeBASE • Quality • Automation • Consistency • Increased Confidence • Increased Agility • Reduced Cost • Reduced Risk

  19. Case Studies

  20. Case StudyTelecommunications Managing and Deploying in Virtual Environments -- Virtual to Cloud Sales Motion Toolkit First half FY13 Telefonica • Critical Needs • XP  Windows 7 • 14,000 desktops and laptops • 400 applications • Results • Automatically detected and fixed most application compatibility issues • Delivered application migration in 1/2 of the time required by manual processes • Enabled completion of first stage of migration ahead of Microsoft deadline • Reduced the cost of the migration by 50% “The ChangeBASE solution saved us 50% of our projected costs, and the migration took only half the time it would have required if we had done the application analysis and remediation manually,” Jim Barton, Senior Architect, Telefónica UK Dell Confidential

  21. Case StudyGovernment Managing and Deploying in Virtual Environments -- Virtual to Cloud Sales Motion Toolkit First half FY13 Met Office SolutionChangeBASE ProfessionalSales Cycle4 monthsROISaved £45k and weeks of timeEstimated more than 100% ROI in 8 monthsCompete SituationWon due to superior functionality, virtualization and auto-fixing • Project Scope • XP  Windows 7 • 2,200 desktops • 1000 applications • Run by Distributed Information Services (DIS) team • Pain/Critical Needs • A manual approach to test the applications was deemed too time consuming • Needed to guarantee apps would work • Estimated that 2,500 staff hours would be required, which equated to a £150,000 cost of staff time Dell Confidential

  22. What about beyond migration?

  23. Change happens constantly Applications Desktop Web apps Microsoft updates Mergers and acquisitions Security updates Constant change New and Updates apps Desktop virtualization New apps on Terminal Server Server upgrades Servers
