Case Study: Baptist Foundation of Alabama achieves secure remote access and predictable IT costs with Citrix Desktops-as-a-Service

Financial services nonprofit tightens security with Citrix-enabled Desktops-as-a-Service

The Baptist Foundation of Alabama, a nonprofit financial services organization founded in 1940 that manages more than $250 million in gifts and provides estate planning, faced growing IT and security challenges. With a small team, IT administration fell to non‑IT staff, sensitive client data was sometimes stored on local laptops, and aging servers threatened large, unexpected replacement costs.

Working with TekLinks, the foundation moved to TekVDI, a Citrix‑based Desktops‑as‑a‑Service solution that delivers secure, monitored desktops and applications from the cloud. All 15 employees can now access critical software and files from any device, enabling business continuity during disruptions, reducing IT administration time, and turning variable capital expenses into predictable operating costs.
