Cost-Per-Use: Annual Subscription Cost ÷ Annual Use

Cost-Per-Use: Should always be considered in the context of qualitative measures of ROI.

Cost-Per-Use: A powerful tool for assessing return on investment.

Cost-Per-Use: A powerful tool for assessing return on investment. But are we using CPU data to its fullest potential?

Chuck Hamaker’s idea: A cross- institutional analysis of CPU data &
