Case Study: Zuyd Hogeschool’s Maastricht Academy of Media Design and Technology achieves faster collaboration, reliable remote access, and secure archiving with Dropbox Education

Zuyd Hogeschool’s Maastricht Academy of Media Design and Technology - Customer Case Study

Maastricht Academy of Media Design and Technology (MAMDT), part of Zuyd Hogeschool, needed a better way to manage large multimedia files and enable reliable remote access for faculty and students. Email file-size limits and a slow, unstable VPN forced staff to rely on personal accounts, hampering collaboration and complicating evaluation and audit processes.

MAMDT adopted Dropbox Education to centralize HR, finance, faculty work, and student projects—supporting large design files, cross-academy collaboration, and file-request workflows. The move delivered fast, reliable access, secure archiving for six-year audits, and a “no upload, no evaluation” policy that streamlined submissions and evaluations, improving operations and faculty satisfaction.
