Case Study: City of Ludwigsburg achieves simplified, secure cloud‑managed Wi‑Fi and cost savings with Extreme Networks' ExtremeCloud IQ

City of Ludwigsburg Modernizes Operations with Cloud-Managed Networking

The City of Ludwigsburg faced complex WLAN needs across a dense mix of buildings — many protected historic sites — and required simplified management, proactive troubleshooting, and easy expansion. To address this, the city partnered with Extreme Networks, deploying Extreme Wireless Access and moving its wireless estate to ExtremeCloud IQ with ExtremeCloud IQ CoPilot for cloud‑managed networking.

Extreme Networks migrated Ludwigsburg’s WLAN to the public cloud, added ExtremeCloud IQ CoPilot for faster issue detection and troubleshooting, and deployed up to 500 access points to scale coverage. The solution delivered full network visibility, quicker guest provisioning, reduced trouble tickets and IT troubleshooting time, better mobile and secure working for staff, and support for modern technologies like Wi‑Fi 6E.
