Case Study: Sargent achieves improved security and increased jobsite productivity with Egnyte

Sargent Switches to Egnyte to Improve Security and Increase Jobsite Productivity

Sargent is a 350‑employee, employee‑owned infrastructure construction firm based in Stillwater, Maine, working on projects across seven states and running roughly 40 jobsites at once. After a data breach and with supervisors in the field struggling to get up‑to‑date plans, the company found that moving workloads to AWS and using consumer tools like Dropbox still left files slow to access, backups hard to manage, and workflows fragmented by email and risky personal hard‑drive use.

Deploying Egnyte gave Sargent a single, secure source of truth accessible from office and remote sites, eliminating VPN delays and convoluted email exchanges. Project approvals, large plan distribution, and self‑service backup/restore became faster and more reliable, reducing rework and procurement errors, paying for the solution through time savings, and increasing overall productivity—with plans to extend Egnyte to equipment file delivery.
