Case Study: Betenbough Companies modernizes collaboration and eliminates VPN reliance with DryvIQ

Betenbough Companies’ G Suite and SharePoint Sync Migration to Modernize Collaboration

Betenbough Companies, an employee-owned construction firm, faced the challenge of modernizing its workplace collaboration. They needed to eliminate reliance on a VPN and provide flexible, mobile file access, but their project was complicated by departmental needs for different storage platforms: 11 TB to SharePoint Online and 25 TB of marketing files to Google Workspace. An initial third-party tool proved unreliable, and Microsoft's own migration tool could not deliver the necessary synchronization across their hybrid environment.

With the help of DryvIQ, Betenbough implemented a solution that seamlessly synchronized content across their on-premises NFS server, SharePoint, and Google. This provided users on any platform with access to the same updated files, eliminating the need for a disruptive hard cutover. The results included successful migration off the VPN, enabled mobile access, and a smooth transition that was crucial during the COVID-19 pandemic. The DryvIQ team's support was also cited as vital to the project's success.
