A business's IT network serves multiple critical functions, each often requiring its own server to ensure downtime-free operations. However, these dedicated servers are typically underutilized, only working at 15–20% capacity. This is not an economically viable proportion — having multiple physical servers operating at such low levels of utilization needlessly increases operating costs and requires more complicated administrative tasks.

Project management can be tough mainly because of mismanagement. That’s the reason a lot of IT projects take a long time to finish and eat up a big portion of the budget.

Even in the hands of good project managers, mistakes can happen. When they do, it can be disastrous to small business owners.
