How big of a monthly op-ex cost are we talking about here? is it like 1% of sales?

  If I remember correctly we were around 1,600 engineers in our org at the time and the yearly cost savings were around $100,000. We saved a lot more on some other vendors, for instance I think we saved about $8 million with AWS but it was significant.

    Not that $100k is a small amount of money, but with 1600 engineers, that's less than 1 engineer's salary per year, or < 0.06% of the total engineering salary per year.
