Dear Client

New KACE Study: KBOX  Connects Wilbur-Ellis' Remote Offices Worldwide


When a major malware attack of  Wilbur-Ellis'es  Symantec open-portal patch management solution hit, and cost the company over R 500 000.00  in consultant fees to upgrade each of its 2000 computers by hand, the Wilbur Ellis team sought a better solution. 
After an evaluation of LANDesk, Microsoft SMS, and even a test implementation of Altiris, the team decided KBOX was the best tool for their money. Wilbur-Ellis purchased the KBOX Systems Deployment appliance and the KBOX Systems Management appliance and realized the following benefits:

  • Almost R 5000 000.00 total savings in the first year.
  • Over 9,000 hours of labor saved in first year.
  • Achieved ROI in under two months.

Says Rick Cahoon, IT support manager at Wilbur-Ellis,  "I saw a demo of KBOX at a computer industry conference and it convinced me that this is the exact type of tool we need: a Swiss army knife of functions, in a simple appliance that didn't require outside networking experts to run it."
