The client provides 86% of the Fortune 500 with software and services to help them collect, protect, analyze and optimize their data, so they can make smarter decisions, manage risk and minimize expenses. With 2,600+ legacy assets located in multiple data centers around the globe. The client needed a global third-party maintenance partner capable of supporting multiple OEMs and significantly reducing maintenance costs.

The Benefits

Benefit 2: Procurri positioned month-to-month third-party support contracts for the expired assets saving the client close to seven figures in support costs.
Benefit 3: Procurri wiped and then removed all of the assets once the migration to Azure was complete. This includes un-cabling and removing assets from their data centers.
