Case Study: Vistra Energy achieves seamless remote collaboration and accelerated cloud adoption with Box

How Vistra Energy embraces a culture of change

Vistra Energy, a rapidly growing power company serving roughly 5 million customers and operating about 5,000 MW across generation types, faced the classic post‑M&A “hodgepodge” of tools and disconnected content. When COVID‑19 forced widespread remote work, that fragmentation revealed gaps between teams already using cloud tools and those who relied on in‑office access.

By standardizing on Box as the central content platform and promoting simple sharing practices, Vistra enabled immediate collaboration—early adopters stayed productive on day one and previously offline employees were quickly brought up to speed. The rollout resulted in a smooth shift to remote work, a wave of new internal advocates for cloud tools, and momentum toward a more flexible, hybrid future.
