Case Study: YMCA of Columbia-Willamette achieves improved user experience and lower IT support costs with Awingu

YMCA Columbia-Willamette Replaces Citrix with an Intuitive Awingu Solution

YMCA of Columbia-Willamette, part of the worldwide YMCA network, had relied on Citrix since 2004 to support remote sites but found the platform increasingly complex to manage and prohibitively expensive to expand. Prioritizing user‑friendliness and ease of management, the YMCA of Columbia-Willamette sought an alternative and selected Awingu as the replacement solution.

With help from Bond Consulting Services, Awingu replaced Citrix with a browser-based workspace that eliminated client configuration, simplified Multi‑Factor Authentication setup, and added built-in file sharing, screen sharing and OneDrive integration. Awingu lowered the IT team's management and support burden, optimized bandwidth use, increased end‑user satisfaction, and reduced IT support costs for the YMCA of Columbia-Willamette.
