Case Study: Blockhead maximizes productivity and data integrity with Resilio Connect

Blockhead maximizes productivity and resources across multiple locations

Blockhead, a visual effects studio headquartered in Auckland with a second office in Sydney, needed a way to keep terabyte-scale CGI and video projects synchronized across offices more than 1,300 miles apart. The team also had to protect file integrity while artists frequently moved between locations and worked on the same projects in a fast-changing, high-volume environment. To solve this, they turned to Resilio Connect from Resilio.

Resilio Connect was deployed on Windows Server systems in Auckland and Sydney, connected by a 200 Mbps point-to-point link, enabling fast, reliable synchronization with selective, difference-based transfers. The result was smoother collaboration across both offices, better workload balancing, less downtime, and faster archiving after jobs were completed. Blockhead was able to scale to a second location while maintaining productivity and file integrity, with Resilio Connect becoming central to their workflow.
