Case Study: Avnet reduces software request wait times from days to minutes with Flexera's AppBroker
A Flexera Case Study
Empowering a leading electronic component distributor with robust application delivery
Avnet, a Fortune 500 distributor of electronic components with more than 12,000 employees worldwide, was hampered by a slow, manual software-request process. Thousands of one-off requests forced IT and support staff to spend hours preparing and sending CDs or making in‑person installs, leaving employees waiting up to two days for required applications.
Flexera’s AppBroker introduced a self‑service app store and automated workflow that routes approvals and hands off installations to Microsoft System Center for delivery to user desktops. The solution cut software delivery from days to minutes, eliminated repetitive installations and desktop visits, and freed IT to focus on strategic initiatives while empowering employees with on‑demand access to applications.
