From 2,400 hours to 0 hours annual device prep

Industry:Public education institution
Region:Switzerland (canton-level)
Scale:600+ Apple devices (iPads and Macs)

Client name withheld: Client requested confidentiality due to ongoing competitor evaluations in the education sector

Challenge

IT team spent entire summer preparing devices for new school year. Each iPad and Mac required manual configuration: apps, settings, restrictions, classroom configurations. 600 devices meant 2,400+ hours of manual work annually.

Results

Device setup time

Before: 4+ hours per deviceAfter: 0 hours (fully automated)

Impact: 2,400 hours saved annually

Configuration consistency

Before: Manual, error-proneAfter: 100% identical across all devices

Impact: Security compliance achieved

Scale:200 Apple devices (primarily Macs for administrative staff)

Client name withheld: Government client confidentiality requirements for IT infrastructure details

Challenge

City IT team managed Windows infrastructure to ISO 27001 standards, but Apple devices were a compliance blind spot. Auditor identified critical gaps: no full-disk encryption enforcement, inconsistent security baselines, no audit logging, unclear device ownership policies.
