Background
EssilorLuxottica is a global leader in vision care products, eyewear and med-tech solutions. With over 18,000 stores worldwide, the company is constantly innovating at the intersection of style, vision, and technology.
For over a decade, EssilorLuxottica has relied on TeamViewer to remotely support and manage thousands of IT devices and digital screens across its stores and offices, ensuring operational efficiency and consistent customer experiences.
In 2025, it launched Nuance Audio, a groundbreaking smart eyewear solution with invisible hearing support, helping people with mild-to-moderate hearing loss reconnect with the world - discreetly and stylishly.
Challenges
As of September 2025, rolling out a high-tech product to 11,000+ stores across multiple continents came with significant operational challenges. Every in-store demo box - critical to creating the “wow moment” that sells Nuance glasses - needed to work flawlessly.
“The demo box is a key part of the selling process… If it’s not working, we can’t deliver that seamless customer experience.” – Marzio Trevisan, SVP IT, EssilorLuxottica
Solution
Using TeamViewer Tensor, EssilorLuxottica centralized the management of every demo box globally. The IT team in Milan can now monitor, troubleshoot, and update thousands of devices in real time, ensuring no store loses valuable selling time.
Marzio Trevisan SVP IT at EssilorLuxottica
“TeamViewer isn’t just reactive support. It’s proactive, stable, and reliable. Proactive means that stores don’t need to wait for IT to connect - they can signal an issue while our team is already monitoring and even pushing updates remotely. That kind of efficiency and speed makes the difference for us.”
