Case Study: Schletter Solar GmbH achieves stable, secure global IT with Proact

Focus on value-adding processes thanks to modern IT infrastructure in the cloud

Schletter Solar GmbH, a global manufacturer of solar mounting systems, faced significant challenges with its aging and complex IT infrastructure. The company experienced frequent system downtimes, inadequate security, and maintenance issues that consumed resources and distracted from core business processes. Following a hacker attack, Schletter realized it could no longer manage IT security effectively in-house and sought to outsource its entire infrastructure. They turned to vendor Proact for a modern solution.

Proact implemented a comprehensive "Lift & Shift" approach, migrating Schletter's IT to its Proact Hybrid Cloud (PHC) and providing Infrastructure, Network, and WiFi as a Service. This solution provided a stable, secure, and uniformly managed IT environment across all 14 of Schletter's global locations. The results included the elimination of unexpected IT failures, robust protection against external attacks, and significantly faster provisioning times. The partnership allowed Schletter's internal IT team to shift its focus from maintenance to value-adding tasks, with Proact ensuring reliable 24/7 operation and monitoring.
