Budget restrictions mean that great features and savings projections alone are not enough; purchasing groups must also prove that they are stretching every infrastructure dollar as far as possible.
iLab's fully web-based delivery model means that institutions do not need to invest in new hardware, purchase expensive up-front software licenses, or develop a support team. iLab offers the entire service for a low annual subscription fee, and waives upfront costs for training and implementation. Customers realize immediate return on investment, not life-of-contract savings.
