Case Study: Grange Insurance achieves 100% increase in user capacity and 50% lower server utilization with AppSense Performance Manager

Grange Insurance - Customer Case Study

Grange Insurance, a $1B+ multi-line insurer headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, needed to share two resource‑intensive policy and claims applications with affiliate Integrity Insurance. The apps ran in a Citrix environment and would have required adding three more Citrix servers to support the extra users—an expensive and time‑consuming option given Grange was already operating 15 servers.

By deploying AppSense Performance Manager, Grange doubled the number of users per Citrix server (a 100% improvement) while cutting server utilization by about 50%, avoiding the purchase of three new servers and saving roughly $20,000 in infrastructure costs. The solution was quick to implement—rolled out in half a day—delivered full application performance without compromise, and positioned the company to pursue future VDI plans.
