Case Study: M&C Saatchi achieves streamlined collaboration across 20 global offices with Egnyte

M&C Saatchi simplifies collaboration across 20 offices globally

M&C Saatchi, a global advertising agency with more than 20 offices and 2,500+ employees, needed a simpler way to share large project files and protect intellectual property. Without a consistent file infrastructure, designers and account managers resorted to unauthorized consumer services, creating security risks, bandwidth bottlenecks, versioning confusion, and project delays.

The agency deployed Egnyte in a hybrid model alongside its VMware estate to sync on-premise storage with the cloud, enabling LAN-speed access to large files, real-time cross-office collaboration, automated versioning, and centralized IT visibility. The rollout eliminated shadow IT, improved productivity and security, provided cloud-based business continuity (90-day version retrieval), and cut storage maintenance costs by over £25,000 annually.
