Case Study: Bensalem Township School District achieves anywhere file access and stronger data protection with Synology file servers

Bensalem Township School District enables anywhere access for 7,500 students with Synology

Bensalem Township School District faced challenges with file protection and management across its scattered data. Struggling with unreliable Windows servers, failed backups, disruptive updates, and a malware attack, the district needed a new, long-term file sharing solution to centralize access and minimize IT hassle. They turned to Synology Inc. for a file server solution.

Synology implemented multiple RackStation devices as centralized file servers, managed via their Central Management System. This provided reliable, anywhere access for staff and students without a VPN, streamlined surveillance video storage for the security department, and reduced IT maintenance through the user-friendly DiskStation Manager. The Synology solution delivered reliable hardware with no issues in six years, eliminated lengthy downtime from updates, and provided cost-effective, expandable storage with enhanced functionality beyond a traditional file server.
