Case Study: Grant Thornton LLP achieves $20,000/month in cost savings and rapid Azure Virtual Desktop onboarding with Nerdio Manager for Enterprise

How Grant Thornton Llp, The Sixth-largest Accounting Organization in the U.s., Tackled a Complex Migration to Azure Virtual Desktop With the Help of Nerdio Manager for Enterprise Their Very Own “easy Button” for a Challenging Software

Grant Thornton LLP, the sixth-largest accounting and advisory firm in the U.S., faced a complex migration to Microsoft Azure to give overseas developers secure, compliant access to company files. The environment and onboarding were too complicated to do internally, so Grant Thornton LLP engaged Nerdio and its Nerdio Manager for Enterprise to help pilot and manage an Azure Virtual Desktop deployment.

Nerdio implemented Nerdio Manager for Enterprise, standing up the AVD environment in days and enabling a controlled test of the solution. As a result, Grant Thornton LLP locked down desktops for improved security, supports 330 concurrent users for under $3,000, and is saving $20,000 per month on compute and storage — outcomes that have led the firm to expand Nerdio instances across three countries.
