Weighted Scoring

In the appendix, the "Tally Sheet" job aid lists all of the steps and their respective topics. Transfer each of the raw scores from the table in each topic section to this table and determine the weighted score for each topic. The weighted score is generated by multiplying the importance rating by each offering’s original (raw) rating score. The weighted scores provide a comprehensive view of the comparisons between offerings, which will assist in deciding whether to choose an on-premises solution or to migrate to either the Exchange Online Standard or Dedicated solution.

Summing each column will reveal which offering has been rated to best meet the organization’s needs.
