Case Study: Ausreo achieves 99.9% network availability and near-zero help desk calls with Sinefa

Leading Steel Manufacturer Gets a Major Network Performance Boost

Ausreo, a leading independent supplier of reinforcing steel in Australia with 13 branch sites and millions of tonnes produced annually, faced recurring network congestion and application performance issues that were hindering its highly automated, just‑in‑time manufacturing and straining a small IT team. To gain visibility and control across its Telstra‑hosted network, Ausreo turned to Sinefa’s layer 7 Network Traffic Visibility and Control solution.

Sinefa was overlaid across Ausreo’s entire network, giving application‑level visibility and traffic shaping that resolved head office issues within days and became standard equipment for new sites. The Sinefa deployment significantly increased network performance, guaranteed bandwidth for manufacturing machinery, cut help‑desk calls to almost zero, delivered 99.9% network performance and availability, and reduced support and outsourcing costs while improving Ausreo’s relationship with Telstra.
