Case Study: Lafayette College achieves stronger cloud security and cost savings with Google for Education

Lafayette College saves support time and shifts resources to research with Google for Education

Lafayette College, a higher education institution, needed to update its long-term cloud technology strategy. The challenge was to find a solution that was more effective and a better value than its existing on-premises infrastructure for migrating, securing, and administering its data. The vendor, Google for Education, provided its Google Workspace for Education Plus service to address this need.

The solution from Google for Education offered plus-grade admin tools, advanced security controls, and enhanced support services. This allowed the college to quickly integrate the platform and reduce training needs due to user familiarity. The results included significant savings in time, support, and overall costs. These freed-up resources are being redirected to support computationally intensive research across the campus.
