Case Study: Leo Burnett achieves 30–70% reduction in file transfer time with Exinda

Exinda delivers 30-70% reduction in !le transfer time resulting in greater productivity for Leo Burnett

Leo Burnett, a global creative advertising agency with 96 offices and over 8,500 employees, needed a reliable wide area network across its Middle East and Africa operations to support large transfers of graphics, videos and presentations (often via FTP). In regions where bandwidth is limited or expensive, the agency faced slow file transfers and inconsistent access to critical databases, threatening productivity and client delivery.

Parent-company IT team Re:Sources standardized Exinda’s WAN optimization and application assurance across the MEA region, piloting in Beirut and Cairo to prioritize business-critical applications and improve link visibility. The rollout of Exinda Edge delivered 30–70% reductions in file transfer time, significantly better remote SQL access, improved network control and application performance, and avoided costly bandwidth upgrades.
