Case Study: Detroit Wallpaper boosts productivity and cuts waste with Microsoft Teams

Detroit startup artfully applies all-in-one solution that promotes secure collaboration, helps it redefine home décor

Detroit Wallpaper, a Ferndale, Michigan print‑on‑demand custom wallpaper startup, was growing quickly but hampered by an on‑premises server, mixed devices and email apps, and slow, manual file transfers. To modernize and secure collaboration the company moved to Microsoft 365 Business (Exchange Online, OneDrive, Sway, PowerPoint, Skype for Business Online) and adopted Microsoft Teams with help from Red Level Networks.

By standardizing on Microsoft 365 Business and using Microsoft Teams for project‑centric conversations and file sharing, Detroit Wallpaper centralized communications, secured client files in the cloud, and shortened review cycles for visual presentations. Microsoft Teams and the broader Microsoft 365 tools freed the founders from IT tasks, improved productivity and collaboration, and helped the company reclaim roughly 10–15% of its budget by reducing waste and labor costs.
