Background
Schneider Electric is a French multinational corporation that specializes in digital automation and energy management. Software distribution and upgrades used to be a major pain point for Schneider Electric. Perhaps this is unsurprising since the company is a leading multinational organization with over 120,000 computer users in over 100 countries.
Challenges
To prepare for Windows 10, Schneider had to upgrade Configuration Manager. They did so with the support of TeamViewer DEX Content Distribution for Microsoft Configuration Manager which subsequently helped them keep up with CM Current Branches more easily.

“We needed a complementary, automated way to accelerate our Windows 10 migration. That’s where TeamViewer DEX came into the picture.”
Solution
Following the successful Configuration Manager upgrade, TeamViewer DEX also enabled Schneider to accurately report application compatibility for end users.
Results
“TeamViewer DEX allowed us to remove approximately 400 distribution points,” says Program Manager Michal Lackovic. “This meant our infrastructure required less support and complexity was reduced by 90%.” By decommissioning these servers, Schneider Electric estimates that Nomad has saved them up to €100,000 per year in maintenance costs, as well as any potential related license costs.
