Case Study: University of Waikato streamlines Microsoft 365 governance with Orchestry

University of Waikato saves 75 hours/month with Orchestry

The University of Waikato faced a significant challenge in managing Microsoft 365 for its thousands of users, struggling with limited visibility, workspace sprawl, and security risks. This created a heavy manual governance overhead for their IT team, which was already constrained by limited resources. To address this, they sought a comprehensive M365 management platform and selected Orchestry as their solution.

By implementing Orchestry, the university gained critical visibility and automated administration. The platform's intelligent reporting and workspace review features enabled proactive governance, tightening sharing policies and enforcing lifecycle management. This solution delivered substantial results, including the identification of 36% of teams for archiving, monthly time savings of 75 hours for IT, and an avoidance of 0.5 FTE in headcount, all while improving security.
