Case Study: Bellflower Unified School District saves 200-250 IT hours per month and stabilizes VDI with Nutanix

Bellflower Unified School - Customer Case Study

Bellflower Unified School District, a Los Angeles–area K–12 district serving about 13,000 students and 700 staff across 14 schools, faced an increasingly complex infrastructure and a small IT team that lacked the specialized skills to manage it. After moving to a hosted desktop VDI on a traditional 3‑tier architecture they experienced random downtime, device incompatibilities, misconfigured user profiles and lengthy reprovisioning, which consumed IT staff time and undermined end-user productivity.

BUSD engaged Nutanix Resident Consultant Services and deployed the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform with Prism, bringing a full‑time consultant experienced in VMware Horizon and AppSense to correct misconfigurations, align the environment to best practices and automate operational tasks. The result was a stable, easy‑to‑manage VDI with consistent user experience, roughly 200–250 IT hours reclaimed per month, fewer support headaches and freed capacity for the IT team to focus on new projects.
