Case Study: Steve Madden achieves 100% global IT uptime and scalable international growth with Align

Steve Madden - Customer Case Study

Steve Madden engaged Align, their IT support partner of more than five years, to execute a major IT investment to support international growth. Align was asked to replace end-of-life network and systems equipment, resolve data center space constraints, improve disaster recovery and business continuity, integrate new applications, and modernize antiquated WAN technologies.

Align designed, engineered and deployed scalable, highly available production and backup networks, working side-by-side with Steve Madden’s engineers to deliver documentation, training and knowledge transfer; three full-time on-site Align engineers now provide network, systems and end-user support. As a result, Align delivers 100 percent uptime for Steve Madden’s global infrastructure and continues to modernize their environment, including migrating to the latest Windows and Exchange platforms and implementing VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) globally.
