Life before the cloud

Prior to choosing LoadSpring, Gannett Fleming’s experience with Sage Estimating software as an enterprise solution was challenging. They needed mobility and flexibility from any location using this powerful software with seamless connectivity. Instead, they had limited functionality through VPN connections making it difficult for them to collaborate. This caused additional burdens on internal IT resources and lead to lost valuable response time.

Overall, the experience was dismal. Internal IT departments were tasked with configuring VPN accounts, managing software updates, locking down security protocols, and meeting compliance standards while continuously scaling to keep up with growing business demands. Gannett Fleming needed more ease-of-use with the software so IT could focus on pressing internal responsibilities. They needed Sage Estimating to be always accessible to the right people, for more project control, and on-time project delivery. These challenges made it difficult for all parties involved. Recognizing the need for expertise, they looked for a partner with a proven record of success setting up uninterrupted connectivity at lightning speed for improved margins on capital projects—that partner would be LoadSpring.
