The organisation is now able to deliver a far better service to Aboriginal communities and individuals in need.

Detailed case study

The full story

Challenge: using the cloud to enable regional access

Emerge IT provides technology services to a remote Indigenous health organisation in the NT. This organisation is spread across eight remote locations, making it challenging to give all employees a consistent, updated, secure and readily available desktop experience. The organisation also lacked control over the software and tools its employees were using, and suffered from inconsistency between its geographically dispersed offices.

To solve this problem, SureDeploy was engaged to help the organisation shift to a secure, cloud-managed SOE.

The solution

A modern workplace

With SureDeploy, Emerge IT was able to deliver a seamless, unified and cloud-based device management solution. This has transformed the way employees in the health organisation access files, documents and communication tools every day.

Improved security posture

Automated endpoint management and deployment ensures all applications are updated regularly, tested, and rolled out without disruption to users or the IT teams. The organisation also has the benefit of a global auto save every three minutes, so employees never lose their documents or data.

Cost savings and operational efficiencies

When devices need to be replaced or upgraded, the process is now quick and seamless, with all login credentials, tools and software automatically deployed to the device from the cloud. The user simply logs in to their new device and can start using all their familiar tools and software right away.

The results: SureDeploy reduces complexity

Thanks to SureDeploy, the health organisation has been able to give its workers consistency, security and reliability, wherever they are working. The organisation has reduced its risk profile and improved its security posture. This has resulted in a better level of service and responsiveness when employees respond to Aboriginal communities.

From an IT perspective, SureDeploy has taken the complexity out of device management.

“Now, when employees log on to their device, there’s one less thing for them to think about as they have everything they need at their fingertips. It’s really helped streamline day-to-day working for their people.”Kevin Grey, Owner and Director, Emerge IT

As the MSP of record for the health organisation, Emerge IT benefits from:

  • Real-time dashboards: real-time visibility of the live status of all devices and their compliance, required updates, users and apps.
  • Better asset management: an at-a-glance view of the organisation’s environment and the location of its assets at all times.
  • Streamlined software management: easy management of the organisation’s software assets, with instant updates on licences and renewals.
“SureDeploy have been very responsive and easy to deal with, and really helped us deliver on the organisation’s needs.”Kevin Grey, Owner and Director, Emerge IT
