A Avanade Case Study
SpareBank1, a Norwegian savings bank with 6,300 employees, needed expert advice to decide whether and how to upgrade its desktop and server operating systems. The bank sought help to understand the risks and potential benefits of different upgrade scenarios and their implications for the business.
Avanade recommended replacing Windows Vista with Windows 7, upgrading Windows Server 2003 R2 to Windows Server 2008 R2, and moving systems management to Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. The guidance gave SpareBank1 confidence in the decision, improved IT productivity and efficiency, and delivered more reliable, secure PCs while laying the groundwork for a successful upgrade.
