Psomas Achieves Global Work-Sharing and Accelerates the Mobile Worker
Overview
This case study describes how Psomas, a leading global consulting engineering firm, implemented Riverbed solutions to accelerate application performance for remote office employees as well as mobile workers.
After considering bandwidth upgrades and point products, they decided to go with the Riverbed Steelhead appliance and the Steelhead Mobile solution. Says Erik Durand, Director of Information Technology at Psomas, "Results (with Steelhead appliances) were pretty dramatic in our branch offices. So when our organization started becoming more mobile, we knew we should consider using Steelhead Mobile for our out-of-office applications as well. Now we get the same kinds of results whether it's the field crews out at job sites, home-based workers that need to collaborate with office staff or small offices where we couldn't put an appliance in place."
