Case Study: Bird & Bird boosts application performance with Riverbed WAN Optimisation by Teneo

Bird & Bird - Customer Case Study

Bird & Bird, a global law firm, faced significant application performance challenges after deploying a centralized document management system, which caused major delays for its lawyers accessing critical files. To address this, the firm engaged vendor Teneo to implement Riverbed's SteelHead WAN Optimisation solution to improve performance over their wide area network.

Teneo's deployment of Riverbed SteelHead appliances resulted in a 20x improvement in application download speeds, allowing lawyers to access data in seconds. The solution also reduced bandwidth utilisation by 7x, which delayed a costly bandwidth upgrade for over three years. Additionally, the use of Riverbed's Virtual Services Platform (VSP) enabled serverless branch offices, significantly reducing infrastructure and management costs for the firm.
