Case Study: Alternative Solutions achieves unified cloud security, Cyber Essentials compliance and higher margins with CensorNet

: Alternative Solutions wanted to provide one security platform to its customer base to provide comprehensive security across all channels, help customers get Cyber Essentials accreditation, and also improve its own sales

Alternative Solutions, a VAR and MSP serving over 200 mainly finance and professional services clients, needed a single cloud-native security platform to replace disparate point products, help customers achieve Cyber Essentials accreditation, and offer consumption-based (monthly) billing. They selected CensorNet’s integrated Email Security, Web Security and CASB solution to meet strict regulatory and data privacy requirements while simplifying their product portfolio and sales model.

CensorNet delivered a unified cloud platform that consolidated email, web and cloud security, improving usability, deployment speed and analytics visibility for customers. Alternative Solutions has moved more than 1,000 users onto the CensorNet platform, phased out legacy products, adopted monthly billing, increased margins, and seen a notable rise in CASB license sales—while benefiting from strong technical support from CensorNet.
