FREE App - The Cost of Downtime Calculator

Cost of Downtime Calculator

It is often difficult to know the true economic impacts to a business from disruptions. Be it a large scale regional disaster. Or a small outage that can occur from applications errors, server downtime, or even a power outage.

Now, I have developed the ultimate Cost of Downtime Calculator. You can visit the Cost of Downtime Calculator page directly on Continuity Company to learn more about the capabilities. We also have an option if you want to add in customized and more accurate calculations directly attributed to your business.

The Cost of Downtime Calculator has options for recovery costs, fines and penalties, contractor costs, employee salaries, and several other options. The App includes an internal help page directing you on how to use it, if needed.

I am very proud of the results that the Cost of Downtime Calculator produces. I am sure you will find it quite accurate for your needs as well. You can also use the Cost of Downtime Calculator to calculate what your Recovery Time Objective (RTO) will cost. You could easily use the app to adjust your RTO and discover the Cost/Benefits of your RTO. Maybe it needs to be shorter, or maybe you can afford to slightly extend the RTO. You can now easily calculate your Maximum Allowable Downtime.

The Cost of Downtime Calculator is FREE to download and use. It is Ad supported and the ads can be turned off for $1.99. The initial app is capable of handling nearly all small businesses and most mid-sized organizations. If you need additional functionality you can purchase an upgrade for $9.99 that should cover all your needs.

My team is currently working on an enhanced functionality update that will be available in 2-3 months after we conduct some additional testing.

We are also working on an additional upgrade for enterprise systems that will allow for more detailed calculations. The future enterprise version will also include a minimum and maximum potential losses.

Below is a screen shot from the Cost of Downtime Calculator App. I hope that you like it and will try it out. Remember it is FREE to download.

Free Home Inventory App - Exactly What You Need to Document Your Items In Case of Disaster

I’ve recommended a variety of products on this site in the past. This is the first time I am going to recommend an App. After a disaster or any event where you incur a loss it is often hard to remember every item that you no longer have.

Trust me, even if you have a good memory like I do, it is hard to remember everything. Recently I came across a free app from the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) that helps you create a scrap book of the items in your home. The App is called myHome Scr.APP.book.

I have been preaching that people list items in their homes for a long time. Let’s be honest though, it is difficult to list and catalog everything. Having this app makes it easy and convenient to photograph, list and make notes on your most important items, if not everything.

Since installing the myHome Scr.APP.book I have documentied everything in my master bedroom and office. Next is the garage and that will be a big task, believe me.

While the App does not have every feature one would want, it does make the cataloging easy and convenient. Considering most Americans do not have a home inventory list this is one of the easiest ways I have seen to create one. Plus it is free, so there is no reason not to give it a try.
