According to ENN
BT has launched what it calls a ‘Tech Mass Index’ calculator, to enable SMEs to work out the health of their IT spending. The Tech Mass Index works on similar principles to a Body mass Index, according to BT, which says the tool helps SMEs check if their IT performance is ‘obese’ or ‘underweight’. At www.itcalculator.bt.com, users enter the amount of time and money they are spending on IT, their size, the sector they are in and their location, and they will then be e-mailed a ‘fitness assessment’ specific to their business.
I had a go and encountered this:
Note the compulsory field. And the requirement to agree to be contacted by BT. Is this a service or is this a cynical advertising ploy to get you called by BT’s Managed IT services? Oh, I think the latter.
If you do submit, the next screen offers to email the report or you can read it. If I can read it online, why do you need my telephone number?
Seems like a service. Is actually a turd.
