Concordia University, St. Paul cuts network outages 67% with Nile

Concordia University, St. Paul, a private university in the Midwest, faced significant network challenges as enrollment doubled to 6,000 students. Their small IT team was overburdened by managing a legacy network that suffered from frequent outages, connectivity issues, and poor cybersecurity posture. They sought a partner to provide reliable service without requiring deep in-house networking expertise, leading them to Nile and its Campus NaaS offering.

By implementing Nile's Access Service and DHCP Service, the university moved to a network-as-a-service model. The solution provided by Nile resulted in a dramatic reduction in help desk tickets, a 67% decrease in network outages, and improved visibility that accurately identified 5,000 connected devices.
