Case Study: Eaton achieves centralized corporate data management and faster secure access with Diligent Entities (Diligent)

Eaton Leverages a Central Space to Store All Corporate Data & Allow Each Department Secure Access

Eaton, a global power-management company with more than $22 billion in annual sales and about 102,000 employees, needed a central, secure way to store corporate data. As a large, cross‑functional organization that expanded through acquisitions, teams were dependent on Legal to retrieve information; Eaton required multi‑user, administrator‑controlled access to specific company records without that bottleneck.

Diligent Entities implemented a central depository offering 24/7, per‑user secure access with advanced administrator rights. The solution gave teams direct access to critical data (eg, signatory lists and company addresses), significantly reducing time spent requesting information, cutting manual data entry and improving data accuracy.
