With Flexgem, computing power is independent of the hardware on the employee's desk. Workstations run in the cloud on infrastructure that is continuously maintained and upgraded, so performance does not degrade over time.
- 71% of business users experience delays when working with software, either occasionally or frequently.
- Nearly half report losing more than 10% of their workday, about 48 minutes, waiting for software to load.

Computing power is allocated dynamically to each workstation, based on the workload and the project the employee is working on at any given moment. At the same time, the platform gives management full visibility into workstation and team performance, so performance gaps are identified even when no one reports them.
- One disruption per hour of computer work, on average.
- 11%–20% of time spent at the computer is lost to disruptions.
- Half a day to a full workday per week, according to the researchers' estimate.
- The most common disruptions: slowness, temporary freezes and crashes.
- Participants were experienced computer users, including IT professionals, and 84% of the disruptions had occurred before.

Flexgem replaces the traditional IT model, built on physical workstations and multiple vendors, with a single managed cloud platform. Maintenance, security and support are handled at the infrastructure level, so resolving issues does not depend on the employee or on their physical workstation.
- $600 billion a year: the cost of unplanned downtime for Global 2000 companies, up 50% in two years.
- $15,000 per minute: the average cost of downtime.
- $95 million in lost revenue per company each year, nearly double the 2024 figure.
- Among the companies with the lowest downtime costs, 98% rate end-to-end visibility as very or extremely important.

Flexgem brings business considerations into the management of technology infrastructure. The platform weighs the cost of employee time against the cost of computing power and allocates resources accordingly. It also gives management a complete organizational view: allocated hours versus actual execution, team performance and the flow of work between teams.
