You know the purchase price.
Not the real cost.
There’s managing a fleet — and there’s piloting it. sobrii calculates the full TCO of every device (purchase, energy, repairs, licenses) and recommends the optimal decision: keep, upgrade, reallocate, or replace.
The financial blind spot
The data your spreadsheets will never give you
Procurement knows the purchase price. Accounting knows the depreciation schedule. IT knows the ticket count. Nobody knows the real cost per device.
The board asks. You improvise.
"How much does our IT fleet cost per device?" The CFO asks at the quarterly review. You pull numbers from 3 spreadsheets, estimate the rest, and present a figure you don't fully trust. Neither does the board.
Repairing costs €90. Replacing costs €1,200.
A workstation with 4 GB RAM struggling with Excel? Your reflex: replacement budget. But a €115 RAM upgrade gives it 2 more years. Without a decision engine, you replace by default — and burn 10x the necessary budget.
No TCO visibility. Just purchase price.
You know the laptop cost €1,200 three years ago. But what about the 2 RAM upgrades, the energy consumed, the 4 support tickets, the 3 software licenses attributed? The real cost is 2-3x the purchase price — and it's invisible.
sobrii calculates the TCO of every device. Automatically. Continuously.
Amortized purchase + measured energy + estimated repairs + estimated license cost = one number. Per device. In real time.

Who benefits
One dashboard, three strategic views
CIO / CTO
Stop defending budgets with gut feelings. Present the board with per-device TCO, lifecycle projections and data-backed Keep/Repair/Replace recommendations. Your refresh strategy becomes a business case, not a guess.
CFO
See exactly where IT budget goes: hardware depreciation, energy, licenses, support. Identify savings before the next budget cycle. The financial visibility you've been asking IT for — automated.
IT Manager
No more cobbling data from procurement, accounting and ITSM tools. sobrii gives you the cost of every device, the ROI of every upgrade, and the projection your director needs for the next board meeting.
FAQ
How does sobrii calculate per-device cost?
The sobrii agent automatically collects data from each device: age, hardware condition, energy consumption, installed software. The total cost integrates the amortized purchase price, attributed licenses, measured energy and estimated repair costs.
Where do the Keep / Upgrade / Replace recommendations come from?
The decision engine evaluates 8 dimensions per device: age, stability, battery, storage type, RAM, disk health, boot configuration and warranty. Each dimension is weighted to produce a composite score and an actionable recommendation.
How quickly can I see concrete results?
The first financial data is available as soon as the agent is deployed. Full cost analysis and lifecycle recommendations stabilize within 2 to 4 weeks, as enough telemetry data accumulates.
Can I customize the thresholds and reference prices?
Yes. In settings, you define base prices per category, depreciation periods, electricity rate and decision thresholds (max age, min score, minimum RAM). sobrii recalculates all scenarios in real-time.
How fast is deployment and when do I see ROI?
The agent deploys in under 5 minutes via Intune, GPO or a simple script. Financial data starts populating immediately. Most organizations identify their first actionable savings within the first two weeks, and the solution typically pays for itself within 6 months.
