Case Study: Mid-Size Local Law Firm achieves a seamless network refresh and reduced outage risk with Onepath

Reducing risk to a firm’s business operations by replacing an aging network

Mid-Size Local Law Firm was facing rising risk from an aging IT environment, including servers and a Windows 2003 system nearing end of life, higher maintenance costs, and concerns that any failure could disrupt tightly scheduled loan closings. The firm also needed better support for increasingly mobile attorneys working across multiple offices. Onepath stepped in with professional services to assess the environment and plan a network refresh.

Onepath designed and implemented a new infrastructure sized to current needs with room for future growth, replacing the old environment with new on-premise servers running virtual machines. The solution also retained the existing Revive disaster recovery setup and added a SharePoint public and communications environment to improve call handling and routing between offices. As a result, the firm transitioned seamlessly without disrupting closing operations and significantly reduced business risk from outages caused by aging equipment.
