Case Study: Valerus achieves centralized, secure file sync and seamless VDI migration with AppSense DataNow

Valerus tackles data management with DataNow

Valerus is a global leader in oil and gas handling equipment and services whose rapid growth created a complex IT footprint: corporate data was scattered across many servers and local laptops, offline users frequently lost files, and user data complexity was slowing a planned VDI rollout. The IT team needed a way to centralize data, ensure reliable sync across devices, and avoid sending sensitive corporate files to untrusted cloud services.

They implemented AppSense DataNow to provide on‑premises, centrally managed file access and automatic sync across physical, virtual and mobile devices. The solution increased utilization of existing storage, simplified user migration to VDI, eliminated cloud exposure, and made data recovery after hardware failures straightforward—delivering a consistent, reliable experience that IT and users now rely on daily.
