Customer Success Story:

New South Construction chooses NetMotion, simplifies deployment and improves end-user experience for remote workers

The Challenges

The construction industry is driven by deadlines. With so many people working from home, that’s what drove New South Construction to look for a secure, reliable way for employees to share files, grab blueprints, and access corporate resources from anywhere. The IT team also wanted a bulletproof way to install apps remotely, as well as manage remote jobsites without installing costly network appliances at every location.

The Solution

Using NetMotion’s software-based security platform to access both on-prem and cloud apps, IT can centrally manage remote access for all jobsites and install applications on users’ laptops. Users enjoy a seamless login process that keeps them connected to the network without re-authenticating, making it easier for employees to quickly retrieve the files they need from anywhere.

“NetMotion makes it easy for our remote users to connect to our network automatically, reducing helpdesk call volumes by 50%. No more frustrated end users calling about forgotten passwords.”

— Jerry Stamey, IT Director, New South Construction

“I was really happy with the tech support team when we migrated to the new platform. We only had a few hiccups, but the NetMotion team was so helpful and knowledgeable that the deployment was easy.”
— Jerry Stamey, IT Director, New South Construction
