Case Study: Swiss Automotive Group achieves 70% lower operating costs with StackWorks and chromeOS

Swiss Automotive Group cuts operating costs by 70% with Stack

The Swiss Automotive Group (SAG) AG, a major European automotive parts provider, faced high costs and complexity with its existing Citrix virtual desktop infrastructure used to access applications like Microsoft 365. Seeking to modernize its 40 contact centers, SAG's challenge was to reduce licensing expenses and IT management overhead while ensuring data security. Partnering with vendor Stack, SAG explored a browser-based approach using chromeOS.

Stack implemented a solution by first conducting a Proof of Concept and then equipping 450 employees with ASUS Chromeboxes. The vendor handled the hardware preparation and rollout, enabling a seamless transition to a fully browser-based workflow. As a result, SAG achieved a 70% reduction in operating costs compared to the previous Citrix solution, significantly lowered license fees, and drastically simplified IT administration and device management through the intuitive chromeOS platform.
