Hello Tom. Thanks for your comment. I'll admit that costs have changed dramatically since I posted this video 2 years ago. My math was accurate then, but Cisco has reduced their on-prem licensing costs. You have to ask why they would do that? Well, my guess is because of the economics of UCaaS at that point. Currently, hosted is still less expensive when looking at MS Teams and SIP trunking and UCaaS is still growing rapidly at the expense of on prem. Best Regards, Steve
TCO? Your math is way off...on prem with a SIP service is way lower in cost.
