2 million euro savings even without migration tools
This article talks about 2 million Euro savings based on the usage of open source software including OpenOffice.org:
"At least 80,000 PCs will be concerned by the migration before the end of the year. In a first step, 35,000 PCs will be equipped by OpenOffice.org before the summer. OpenOffice will be used, as Microsoft Office, for the rapports and statements, but will offer more services than Word and Excel. The National Gendarmerie has announced that the migration, the technical support and the personnel training will be managed without any external help. It is expected to save 2 million euro by year through this migration."
With the upcoming migration tools for StarOffice, migration risks and costs should go down even further!
