Case Study: Helion Technologies achieves 50 hours/week time savings and 97% fewer ransomware infections with Webroot

MSP Helion Automotive Technologies Delivers Best-ofBreed Protection with Webroot

Helion Technologies, an MSP serving more than 650 dealerships and managing 25,000 endpoints, was struggling with rampant CryptoLocker ransomware and other malware that routinely bypassed its AVG protection. The problem consumed a senior technician’s time—about one full-time equivalent—and produced near-daily infections, undermining service and client confidence until Helion evaluated Webroot SecureAnywhere® Business Endpoint Protection.

Webroot deployed SecureAnywhere across Helion’s estate and centralized management with its Global Site Manager (GSM), integrated into Helion’s Kaseya rollout. The result: infections dropped from roughly one CryptoLocker a day to less than one a month (a ~97% reduction reported), virus-related tickets fell about 95%, Helion saved roughly 50 hours a week (about $80,000/year), and management overhead was dramatically reduced—all attributed to Webroot’s protection and MSP-friendly tooling.
