A Riverbed Case Study
Ingérop, an independent French engineering consultancy with more than 90 offices and 2,600 employees, faced inconsistent application performance and high latency as teams relied on bandwidth‑heavy CAD tools and shared large files—issues that were aggravated during the pandemic by 2,000+ remote users on slow VPNs and rising service‑desk demand, threatening productivity and customer service.
To address this, Ingérop deployed Riverbed Acceleration (SteelHead and Client Accelerator) and added Riverbed NetProfiler to increase visibility and optimize WAN traffic from 30 agencies and two data centers. The combined solution improved troubleshooting and application delivery, lifting employee productivity by 10–15%, cutting network traffic by 50%, saving about €200,000 per year in bandwidth, and achieving a 100% service‑desk availability rate.
