Deciding when to execute a LAN refresh involves finding the sweet spot where full value has been garnered from the existing infrastructure before it begins failing. Making the decision to perform a LAN refresh too early costs the company money because the infrastructure is retired before it has been fully utilized, while waiting too long can result in additional costs related to maintenance and downtime.
This tool will help small enterprises assess if the LAN will need to be replaced in the next year due to:
- Age and lack of support.
- The addition of services and applications.
- Significant changes to the network architecture.
Reap the appropriate trade-off between network performance and cost by knowing the right time to pursue a LAN refresh.
