Case Study: KOMPAS achieves 28% IT cost savings with Microsoft Office 365

Indonesia’s biggest media company saves 28% IT investment cost through cloud transformation

KOMPAS, Indonesia's largest media company, faced a significant challenge in managing its editorial workflow. Its journalists and production teams were hampered by a slow, on-premises IT infrastructure that created bottlenecks in sending material from the field and made collaboration via thousands of emails difficult to manage. Seeking a more agile solution, KOMPAS turned to Microsoft and its Office 365 cloud service to improve mobility and collaboration.

Microsoft implemented a solution using Office 365, which included enterprise social networking with Yammer and cloud storage with OneDrive. This allowed journalists to collaborate on stories and share files seamlessly from any location using mobile devices. The shift to Microsoft's cloud resulted in a 28% annual savings in infrastructure and maintenance costs and empowered approximately 200 journalists to work and collaborate from anywhere for the first time in the company's history, drastically improving productivity.
