Case Study: GSF Proprete achieves guaranteed critical application performance and optimized bandwidth with Infovista

GSF guarantees critical applications performance with Network Boost from Orange Business Services

GSF Proprete, an independent French commercial cleaning group with 28,000 employees and 110 sites in France (plus 7 international sites), was struggling with application performance issues that impacted billing and its critical HR Access system, threatening business continuity and generating many support tickets. To guarantee availability of critical applications and to optimize use of the two SDSL links at each site, GSF Proprete engaged Orange Business Services’ Network Boost managed service, which is based on Infovista (formerly Ipanema) technology.

Orange Business Services implemented Network Boost using Infovista’s application visibility and dynamic load‑balancing capabilities across the dual SDSL links, delivering application performance guarantees and real‑time control. As a result, GSF Proprete achieved 99.9% availability for critical applications, significantly reduced data transfer times, strongly decreased incident calls and resolution times, and optimized bandwidth use — outcomes enabled by Infovista’s solution and the managed service from Orange Business Services.
