Case Study: Sunworks achieves remote work productivity without IT performance loss with TruGrid

Embracing Virtual Without Sacrificing IT Performance and Security

A national solar provider, Sunworks, faced the challenge of maintaining its operations after deciding to embrace a 100% remote work model. While the move saved significant money on office space, its engineering team experienced severe performance issues with its resource-heavy solar design software when using traditional VPNs. This latency problem threatened to cause Sunworks to lose key engineers, which would have crippled its operations.

The company, through its managed service provider, implemented TruGrid SecureRDP. The solution involved shifting its entire IT infrastructure to a colocation data center, allowing employees to connect to high-performance virtual desktops. With TruGrid, employees experienced zero IT performance limitations from their home offices. The outcome was the best of both worlds: Sunworks saved tens of thousands of dollars per month on real estate while its staff remained happy, productive, and free from technical constraints.
