Case Study: Northwest Community Hospital achieves proactive, automated network management and faster troubleshooting with Infoblox NetMRI

Northwest Community Hospital - Customer Case Study

Northwest Community Hospital, a large medical provider in the northwest Chicago suburbs with over 900 physicians and 3,700 staff across multiple facilities, faced a growing-network challenge: an extensive, distributed infrastructure and planned expansion strained a small IT team that spent countless hours on manual network administration. The hospital needed an automated, easy-to-use solution that could be used by IT staff of varying experience levels to reduce hands-on management without adding headcount.

The hospital implemented Infoblox NetMRI, which automates data collection, audits configurations against policies and best practices, proactively detects and prioritizes issues, and delivers real-time alerts with one-click drill-down for remediation. As a result, NetMRI has reduced manual labor and troubleshooting time, enabled a more proactive IT posture, and effectively acts as an extension of the IT department to prevent network problems before they affect patient care.
