Case Study: a leading UK retail organization saves $350,000 and 21 days a month with CloudM

UK Retail Giant saves $350,000 and 21 days a month with CloudM

A leading UK retail organization faced significant challenges with high IT costs and inefficient processes. With a high staff turnover rate, they were manually offboarding around 1,000 users per month, which consumed valuable resources. Furthermore, they were facing a costly renewal of nearly 3,000 Google VFE licenses to expensive Archive User (AU) licenses while needing to retain ex-employee data for compliance. They turned to CloudM for a solution.

CloudM implemented its Archive and Automate products. CloudM Archive provided a secure, compliant data retention solution using Google Cloud Storage at a fraction of the cost of AU licenses. CloudM Automate automated the offboarding process with customizable workflows. This solution saved the retailer $350,000 over two years on license costs and reclaimed an estimated 21 days of IT time per month, automating what was once a manual and error-prone task.
