Case Study: WD-40 Company reduces large email attachment bottlenecks with balesio FILEminimizer Office

Fast E-mails with optimized, small file attachments put a smile on the face of the customer

The WD-40 Company, a global consumer products firm, faced significant email communication bottlenecks. Their employees in the UK struggled to send large PowerPoint, Word, and Excel files, which frequently exceeded email size limits. This led to congested inboxes, increased demands on storage and bandwidth, and a loss of productivity as staff sought help from the IT desk. To address this, they turned to balesio's FILEminimizer Office.

balesio's solution was implemented across the UK office, integrating with email to automatically compress Microsoft Office attachments before sending. This ensured files remained in their original format for recipients while drastically reducing their size. The results were significant: IT support requests for emailing large files dropped markedly, and the company achieved substantial savings on Exchange server storage and bandwidth costs, boosting overall productivity.
