Case Study: Countryside Church achieves a high-capacity, secure network with InterWorks

Countryside Church keeps 1,000-person Sundays running with InterWorks

Countryside Church, a large church in Stillwater, Oklahoma, faced significant IT infrastructure challenges. Their network, previously managed by a volunteer, was inadequate for their high-capacity environment, featuring insufficient Ubiquiti access points and a Raspberry Pi firewall. This setup struggled to support their weekly attendance of 850 and their community outreach mission, leading them to seek help from InterWorks.

InterWorks implemented a comprehensive new solution centered on Ruckus Wireless access points, a Sophos Firewall, and ESET Antivirus. The results were immediately positive, with the network effortlessly handling over 1,000 people on a busy Sunday and more than 300 concurrent users during student finals week without a single reset. This allowed the church staff to refocus on their mission, confident in a reliable and secure network provided by InterWorks.
