Case Study: Evergreen State College reduces lab operating costs with Sassafras K2 from Sassafras Software

Evergreen State College - Customer Case Study

Evergreen State College worked with Sassafras Software to address major IT budget cuts after losing 43% of its state funding. Facing pressure to reduce operating costs while keeping student computing labs available, the college needed a reliable way to verify actual lab usage and determine which hours were truly necessary.

Using Sassafras K2-KeyServer, Sassafras Software provided detailed usage reporting and customized Time Sets for Histogram Login reports to analyze evening and weekend demand. The data helped Evergreen adjust lab hours, reduce operational costs, improve student satisfaction, and regularly optimize software licensing and purchasing based on ongoing usage trends.
