Intro

Calix Improves Efficiency With Scalable IT Infrastructure

Calix’s IT Infrastructure and cyber security is crucial to its operation. After introducing new technology to the market, Calix saw significant growth. They knew they needed to scale, and fast, and they knew their older IT infrastructure wouldn’t cut it. With this in mind, Calix contacted Stanfield IT about streamlining their IT infrastructure.

Helping Calix Grow

Client Goals

Calix needed to:

  • Simplify and upgrade their IT systems to keep up with business growth.
  • Improve security to protect their operations across different regions.
  • Make it easier for teams to collaborate and scale their systems without headaches.

Challenge

As Calix grew, they ran into a few problems:

  • They were relying on older systems that were too complicated and slow to scale.
  • They weren’t using any cloud technology, making it hard to expand quickly.
  • They needed to remove outdated hardware without causing disruptions since they operate globally.
  • Their growing size meant they needed better cyber security to keep everything secure.

Solution

We helped Calix with a few key improvements:

  • Simplified their IT by cutting down on hardware and moving everything to the cloud.
  • Set them up with Office 365 to make collaboration easier and security more reliable.
  • Provided round the clock support so their global operations could keep running smoothly.
  • Conducted a cyber security audit and put measures in place to better protect their systems.

RESULTS

After working with us, Calix saw:

  • A complete move to cloud systems, reducing costs and making everything run more efficiently.
  • Easier collaboration between teams across Australia, the U.S., and Europe.
  • IT systems that scale easily to support business growth.
  • Stronger security that meets Essential Eight guidelines, keeping their data safe.
  • Significant growth in their business, with their headcount more than doubling as they expanded globally.

IT infrastructure that scales easily

“That was our focus – reducing risks and costs. We have addressed that, plus we now have an IT infrastructure that scales easily. The result is an IT setup more suited to the needs of the business. In addition, it has enabled us to more easily expand into Europe.”
