Case Study: University of Nebraska-Lincoln streamlines SharePoint deployments with Inedo BuildMaster

University of Nebraska-Lincoln - Customer Case Study

The University of Nebraska–Lincoln (UNL) Housing IT team needed a better way to manage builds and deployments after a vendor change exposed inefficient, manual release practices. They evaluated tools like Jenkins and TeamCity, but found they didn’t meet their need for a full DevOps suite with release planning and controls to prevent manual copying between environments. UNL chose Inedo’s BuildMaster to improve its deployment process.

With Inedo’s BuildMaster, UNL automated release planning, artifact movement, and PowerShell-driven SharePoint deployments, replacing a labor-intensive manual process. The team now uses BuildMaster to copy packages to SharePoint servers, run installation scripts, and manage deployments in the background, saving many work hours and reducing deployment risk. The result has been greater confidence in more frequent changes, with up to 90% of the department’s internal development now delivered through SharePoint.
