Case Study: Gerflor Group achieves total IT visibility across 47 sites with Centreon

Monitoring with Centreon, GERFLOR enjoys total IT visibility over 47 international sites

Gerflor Group, a France-based multinational flooring and wallcovering company, needed to centralize IT monitoring across 47 international sites while still accommodating local requirements. Facing a highly heterogeneous, hybrid IT environment and an ongoing cloud migration, Gerflor also wanted better visibility, broader monitoring coverage, and more autonomy for local IT teams. To meet these needs, it selected Centreon Business Edition.

With Centreon, Gerflor deployed a central server and seven pollers to monitor infrastructure, applications, databases, cloud services, and even sustainability metrics such as power consumption and server room temperature. Centreon’s auto-discovery, automation, dashboards, alerting, and Plugin Packs helped reduce blind spots, speed up incident response from days to minutes in some subsidiaries, and support proactive issue prevention. Gerflor also gained more relevant dashboards for stakeholders, smoother onboarding of new subsidiaries, and a monitoring platform ready to support its cloud transition.
