Case Study: Parmalat achieves significant ROI and better network visibility with Plixer Scrutinizer

Parmalat Australia receives sizeable ROI by implementing network analysis processes

Parmalat Australia, a major food processing company producing branded milk and dairy products, was struggling with saturated 512k remote-site links, limited network visibility, and inconsistent user experience across Citrix virtual desktops and VoIP. The company needed a way to understand why bandwidth was being consumed and why business-critical applications were slowing down, without simply adding more bandwidth.

Plixer’s Scrutinizer network traffic analytics tool gave Parmalat the visibility it needed to identify bandwidth-heavy Citrix sessions, flash-heavy web usage, and large print jobs, then reconfigure traffic and adjust carrier bandwidth more effectively. With Plixer, Parmalat reduced troubleshooting time, avoided costly bandwidth upgrades, improved service levels, and achieved a significant ROI through faster problem resolution, better bandwidth availability, and fewer user complaints.
