Case Study: GSF achieves centralized, proactive IT performance monitoring with eG Innovations

Performance Assurance & Monitoring for Distributed IT Environment

GSF, a French leader in cleaning and hygiene services with about 27,000 employees and revenues over EUR 600M, faced a major IT transformation: consolidate a highly distributed environment (105 branch offices each running local AS/400 servers) into a centralized data center to cut costs, improve efficiency and reliably manage business-critical applications—a shift made more urgent because a single incident at headquarters could now impact all branches.

GSF chose eG Innovations for its fast, low-effort integration and automated root-cause detection; the solution covered Oracle, MySQL, Unix, VMware, SAN and networking, was implemented within 10 days and made GSF autonomous after training. The result is a single, easy-to-use monitoring platform that proactively alerts administrators, speeds diagnosis, is customizable on the fly, and ensures better application availability and performance across the organization.
