About The Customer
Associated Engineering is a client of Betach Solutions, an IT and IS consulting firm based in Calgary. The company was operating on a legacy 2007 Exchange environment which was proving to be costly due to hosting expenses and infrastructure management. The company lacked the flexibility and the administrative and operational capabilities to manage their own system. They had about 1,000 mailboxes at the time of the migration.
The Challenge
Betach Solutions was tasked with migrating Associated Engineering from a legacy 2007 Exchange environment to Exchange Online with Office 365. The legacy system was costly to operate due to hosting expenses and infrastructure management. The client also lacked the flexibility and the administrative and operational capabilities to manage their own system. The Hybrid Migration model that allows moving batches of users was unavailable due to the client having about 1,000 mailboxes. This meant that Betach needed to use a different methodology to extract and migrate the data.
The Solution
Betach Solutions selected BitTitan products, specifically MigrationWiz and DeploymentPro, to facilitate the migration. MigrationWiz was chosen for its reputation and its ability to allow the migration to take place entirely through a web portal. This meant that there was no need to install software or make arrangements to come into the client’s workplace to complete the migration. DeploymentPro was used to automatically configure Outlook, eliminating the need to visit every desktop physically and allowing Betach to do remote sessions with its client’s employees.

SET Creative Ditches Google Vault for Datto Backupify
When Kienholz first started at SET, the staff was using Microsoft Outlook for email with no form of data backup. It became apparent that something needed to change as the staff was often burdened with trying to recover emails from departed employees. Kienholz transitioned the team to Google’s Gmail and implemented Google Vault for backup purposes. While SET employees quickly adjusted to Gmail, which many use for personal email, the same could not be said for Google Vault. “Unlike most Google products, Vault was not user friendly at all. It’s very hard to search for items. We never really figured out how to do a restore either,” explained Kienholz. Due to SET’s work with high-profile brands, projects often go through many rounds of revisions right down to the eleventh hour. This means that every bit of information - especially data living in project managers’ emails - is crucial to delivering clients a polished design at deadline.

Sawback IT and Datto Save Client From a Costly Mistake
Ballistic Echo, a software development house, faced a critical challenge when human error led to the deletion of thousands of lines of unique code. This incident occurred before the code was pushed to source control, resulting in significant loss of time, revenue, and work. The previous file-level backup solution they used was slow and inefficient, making it nearly impossible to manually recreate the lost work. The need for a more reliable and efficient business continuity solution became evident to avoid such disasters in the future.

Pipeline Insight Case Study: YARCDATA
YarcData faced challenges in determining the conversion rates of prospects into customers through various marketing efforts and identifying the source of its leads. They wanted to know the percentage of opportunities in the sales pipeline that came from different marketing events, web downloads, or self-sourced sales opportunities. Additionally, they needed the ability to drill down into the data to guide where to allocate more marketing dollars based on the success of previous efforts. Previously, YarcData relied heavily on spreadsheets and Salesforce.com reports, which made it difficult to extract the exact information they needed. This reliance on spreadsheets represented about 70% of their data presentation.
