Case Study: Lufthansa Technik AG achieves seamless migration of 12,500 users and eliminates print servers with Vasion Print (Vasion)

Lufthansa Technik AG - Customer Case Study

Lufthansa Technik AG, the lead member of the Lufthansa Technik Group with more than 26,000 employees and 30 subsidiaries, needed to migrate 12,500 European users off Novell iPrint without disrupting daily operations, reduce print-related help desk calls, remove single points of failure, and centralize print management across 10 locations. After evaluating multiple options, the company selected Vasion and its Vasion Print solution to meet those requirements.

Vasion Print imported Novell printers into a single management portal, enabled a two-person team to migrate all 12,500 users transparently, and eliminated print servers while centralizing control of roughly 2,500 printers across 10 European sites. Vasion’s approach produced no user-facing disruption, faster print performance (no long queues), reduced hardware and help-desk costs, and a unified platform that delivered rapid ROI and simpler ongoing management.
