Imagine it’s 2am. A core switch fries because of a sudden power surge. Most of your users wake up to a blank screen. Your team scrambles: Where’s the backup configuration? Who knows the last working state? Hours pass, productivity tanks, support calls flood in, and costs stack up by the minute. This isn’t a theoretical horror story. According to Gartner, the average cost of network downtime still hovers around $5,600 per minute, or over $300,000 per hour.
