Case Study: The Morse Group achieves greater efficiency and competitiveness with Acronis Files Advanced

Increase Your Competitiveness with a Mobilized Workforce

The Morse Group, a top‑50 electrical contracting firm with a nationwide project footprint, needed to boost productivity and cut costs by creating an “office in the field” so foremen could access drawings and documents without returning to the office. To solve this, The Morse Group evaluated several options and selected Acronis, deploying Acronis Files Advanced to give mobile access to corporate servers while meeting security and Active Directory integration requirements.

Acronis implemented an on‑premise Acronis Files Advanced solution accessible on iPad devices (250 users), providing easy file navigation, Active Directory provisioning, audit logs, and automated change notifications. The deployment eliminated the need for VPNs and reduced lost billable time (foremen bill at $1.50/min — trips back to the office could exceed $200), cut email/server loads, closed security gaps that had enabled prior IP exposure, and made bids more competitive through higher field productivity.
