Case Study: Platte River Networks achieves proactive client protection and major IT time savings with Webroot

Platte River Networks Proactively Protects Clients & Reduces IT Costs with Webroot

Platte River Networks (PRN), a Denver-based managed service provider overseeing 4,500+ endpoints, was hit by repeated CryptoLocker ransomware infections that revealed limitations in its existing antivirus approach. Seeking an MSP-centric solution, PRN chose Webroot and deployed Webroot SecureAnywhere® Business Endpoint Protection to better protect clients and reduce remediation overhead.

Webroot provided a lightweight agent, a centralized MSP management portal with cross-client whitelisting and fast provisioning, and collaborative support to address stubborn infections. The deployment delivered rapid per-device installs and measurable impact: recurrent infection incidents that once cost 25–30 technician hours each have dropped to zero, producing substantial time and cost savings for Platte River Networks.
