Case Study: Open University saves costs and improves efficiency with Planon Cloud

Open University saves IT and Estates resources with Planon Cloud after 10 years on Planon

The Open University, the United Kingdom's largest educational institution, faced the challenge of protecting the asset value of its buildings and ensuring low life cycle costs while providing an enjoyable environment for its 4,000 staff. To meet this challenge, they initially implemented Planon's Integrated Workplace Management System (IWMS) software in 2006.

A decade later, the university chose to migrate its existing Planon solution to the Planon Cloud. This move was aimed at saving additional IT and Estates resources, lowering hardware investment costs, and benefiting from automatic software updates. Planon provided a cost-efficient, well-performing, secure, and future-proof cloud alternative to their previous in-house installation.
