Case Study: St Louis Community College achieves smarter IT decisions with LabStats

St Louis Community College reduces lab complaints by 80% with LabStats

St Louis Community College faced the challenge of managing a complex IT environment across multiple campuses without a clear, unified view of their hardware and software usage. Their previous process required manually reconciling data from several different systems, which led to inefficient, age-based refresh cycles and emotional, opinion-driven budget conversations. They needed a neutral, empirical way to make confident IT decisions.

By implementing LabStats, the college gained a single source of truth for device and software usage data. This allowed them to right-size computer labs based on actual concurrent usage, reallocate underutilized equipment, and make operational decisions informed by real student behavior. The solution provided by LabStats enabled data-driven budget discussions, eliminated guesswork, and positioned IT to demonstrate responsible spending, ensuring technology resources are allocated equitably and efficiently for their students.
