Case Study: Dant Clayton achieves lower CAD costs and stronger disaster recovery with IronOrbit cloud CAD workstations

Dant Clayton - Customer Case Study

Dant Clayton, a Louisville-based designer and manufacturer of aluminum bleachers, grandstands, and stadium structures, needed a better way to support its CAD-heavy engineering work. The company was struggling with the high cost of local CAD workstations, decentralized IT, and the need for stronger reliability, security, and disaster recovery, while also wanting anywhere, any device access for remote work and collaboration.

IronOrbit implemented an INFINITY cloud-based CAD workstation solution for Dant Clayton, supporting 114 users and key applications like AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and Bluebeam. The solution reduced hardware spending, improved disaster recovery with multi-site replication and backups, and strengthened security and uptime with a 99.999% uptime guarantee, 24/7/365 NOC monitoring, and layered protections such as encryption, firewall, and anti-DDoS controls.
