I just attended a Microsoft event and the speaker presented about SharePoint Enterprise Search. On a quick Vista marketing, he quickly mentioned that users would be able to save 15 minutes a day on searches when Vista is used. And he encouraged the audience not to wait 5 months to move to Vista, because by then, the organization should have already saved 1650 hours in searches nowithstanding all other time savings from other features of Vista.
I have definitely found the search of Windows Vista beneficial and so much faster than in XP. A lot of enteprises doesn’t allow installation of third party applications that replace the standard Windows XP search and given that Vista is a far better option, the speaker did have a point.
To think about it, so many features of Vista can save time for both the end user and tech support.
There are a lot of factors in a cost and savings analysis in the adoption of Vista, and 15 minutes of search savings is a pretty cool add-on.
