Case Study: a US nonprofit healthcare provider saves hundreds of work hours with NetBrain

NetBrain Saves Hundreds of Work Hours for Major US Nonprofit Healthcare System

A US nonprofit healthcare provider was struggling with an outdated and inefficient network management process. Their network team spent hundreds of hours manually creating and updating network maps, a single one taking 4-10 hours to build, and performing device updates by individually logging into over 1,300 pieces of hardware. This manual effort was a significant drain on resources and hindered their ability to support their complex hybrid IT environment effectively. The challenge drove them to seek out a solution from NetBrain and its dynamic mapping and automation platform.

By implementing NetBrain, the healthcare provider automated its network documentation and change management processes. The results were substantial, with NetBrain enabling the team to generate maps in minutes instead of hours and perform mass device updates in a single day instead of a week. These and other automations saved the organization at least 100 work hours on multiple major projects, dramatically increasing operational efficiency and freeing up engineers for more strategic work.
