ROI Calculator FAQs
Common questions about calculating document management ROI
How accurate are the ROI calculations?
Our ROI calculator uses industry-standard financial models and real-world data from thousands of implementations. The calculations factor in labor costs, paper expenses, storage fees, compliance risks, and productivity gains based on your specific inputs. While individual results vary, our methodology is based on documented savings from actual Ademero customers. The average customer sees 347% ROI over three years, with payback periods typically ranging from 6-18 months depending on organization size and current inefficiencies.
Does the calculator work for my industry?
Yes! The calculator includes industry-specific multipliers for healthcare, legal, government, education, financial services, manufacturing, and general business sectors. Each industry has unique document management challenges - healthcare deals with patient records and HIPAA compliance, legal manages contracts and discovery documents, financial services handles regulatory reporting. The calculator adjusts cost assumptions and savings potential based on your selected industry to provide more accurate projections.
What costs does the calculator include?
The calculator analyzes both direct and indirect costs. Direct costs include paper and printing supplies, physical storage space rental, document filing and retrieval labor, and software licensing fees. Indirect costs cover time wasted searching for documents, compliance violations and fines, duplicate document processing, and lost productivity from inefficient workflows. The analysis also considers hidden costs like overtime during peak periods, expedited shipping for physical documents, and opportunity costs from delayed decision-making due to information bottlenecks.
How long does payback typically take?
Most organizations see payback within 6-18 months, depending on their current inefficiencies and scale. Larger organizations with high document volumes typically achieve faster payback due to economies of scale. Organizations still using predominantly paper-based processes see the fastest returns, often breaking even in just 4-6 months. The payback period calculation includes all implementation costs, training, data migration, and ongoing subscription fees, so you get a realistic timeline for when your investment starts generating positive returns.
What productivity gains can I expect?
Typical productivity improvements include 75% reduction in document search time (from 18 minutes to 4 minutes average), 60% faster approval workflows through automated routing, 80% reduction in duplicate document processing, and 40% decrease in compliance-related workload through automated audit trails. Employees save an average of 30-45 minutes per day on document-related tasks, which compounds across your organization. These time savings translate directly to cost reductions as staff can focus on higher-value activities instead of manual document handling.
Can I customize the calculations?
Yes! The advanced settings allow you to customize labor rates, document volumes, processing times, paper costs, storage expenses, and compliance risk levels specific to your organization. You can also select your current solution (paper-based, basic digital, or competitor DMS) to see comparative savings. The calculator remembers your inputs, so you can experiment with different scenarios - try modeling growth projections, department-specific rollouts, or best-case/worst-case scenarios to build a comprehensive business case for your stakeholders.
