For the first time in Lotus Notes 23 years history (we know, we've been at it that long!), there is a way to provide a scientific way to assess the true value of a Notes infrastructure.
value = complexity x usage
where:
complexity = Angkor™ index of all design elements and code
Lotus Notes embeds processes in its design. The more complex the process, the greater the complexity of the design. Because Notes does not have an initial steep wall learning curve or present a ``wall" past a certain amount of complexity, the relationship between the complexity of the business processes and the design complexity is linear. Angkor™ reviews all design elements and every line of code, processing hundreds of elements through its proprietary weight system.
usage = number of reads x number of documents
Even the most sophisticated processes bring no value to the organization unless they contain data and people using it. In other words, unused infrastructures have great potential but are not working assets. Angor™ uses proprietary technology to aggregate information across all instances and components of a Notes application corporate-wide.
