Case Study: VfL Wolfsburg achieves rapid automated deployments and universal patching with Matrix42

Digital Workspace Management VfL Wolfsburg Fussball GmbH

VfL Wolfsburg, the Bundesliga football club, faced inefficient, risky and costly IT operations managing up to 1,000 devices across four sites with no centralized client management, automated software distribution or user self‑service. To modernize, they selected Matrix42 and its Digital Workspace Management solution (with Patch Management, Remote Control, License Management and Package Cloud) to replace disparate legacy tools and manual processes.

With implementation support from partner DSP IT Service, Matrix42 automated client deployment, software distribution, patching, service desk and self‑service. The result: new client rollouts dropped from about three hours to 20 minutes, software distribution from 30 minutes to five, universal security patching is now immediate, and the 13‑person IT team has time for higher‑value projects — all delivered in an ITIL‑compliant system that went live within weeks.
