Case Study: City of Oulu achieves greater employee mobility and expanded citizen services with Microsoft Corporation

City of Oulu - Customer Case Study

City of Oulu, a large government organization in Finland, needed to modernize its aging on-premises infrastructure to improve employee mobility, collaboration, and security while also addressing licensing issues caused by hardware-based software tied to older devices. The city turned to Microsoft Corporation and Microsoft 365, including tools like Teams, Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and Windows 10, to create a more flexible, cloud-based working environment.

Microsoft Corporation implemented Microsoft 365 and related security services to enable secure remote access, user-based licensing, and better collaboration across departments. The result was more freedom for employees to work anywhere, reduced office-space and hardware replacement needs, faster teamwork through Microsoft Teams, and stronger protection that cut phishing attacks by 30 percent.
