Challenge: using the cloud to enable regional access
Emerge IT provides technology services to a remote Indigenous health organisation in the NT. This organisation is spread across eight remote locations, making it challenging to give all employees a consistent, updated, secure and readily available desktop experience. The organisation also lacked control over the software and tools its employees were using, and suffered from inconsistency between its geographically dispersed offices.
To solve this problem, SureDeploy was engaged to help the organisation shift to a secure, cloud-managed SOE.
The solution
A modern workplace
With SureDeploy, Emerge IT was able to deliver a seamless, unified and cloud-based device management solution. This has transformed the way employees in the health organisation access files, documents and communication tools every day.
Improved security posture
Automated endpoint management and deployment ensures all applications are updated regularly, tested, and rolled out without disruption to users or the IT teams. The organisation also has the benefit of a global auto save every three minutes, so employees never lose their documents or data.
Cost savings and operational efficiencies
When devices need to be replaced or upgraded, the process is now quick and seamless, with all login credentials, tools and software automatically deployed to the device from the cloud. The user simply logs in to their new device and can start using all their familiar tools and software right away.
The results: SureDeploy reduces complexity
Thanks to SureDeploy, the health organisation has been able to give its workers consistency, security and reliability, wherever they are working. The organisation has reduced its risk profile and improved its security posture. This has resulted in a better level of service and responsiveness when employees respond to Aboriginal communities.
From an IT perspective, SureDeploy has taken the complexity out of device management.
