How Kano Consulting secures and simplifies its IT infrastructure with Rzilient
Kano Consulting is a consulting company specialized in insurance, which distinguishes itself by its expertise across the entire insurance ecosystem - insurers, management delegates or even software publishers - and is involved in digital transformation projects.
Nagy Mercier, HR Manager and Partner at Kano, looks back on four years of collaboration with Rzilient, discussing the evolution of their needs as well as the adaptation of our solution in a context marked by strong growth and increased cybersecurity challenges.
The challenges encountered
Before collaborating with Rzilient, IT management at Kano Consulting was based on direct purchases, without real follow-up or structured support. Processes lacked efficiency and IT support did not always meet needs. The result: a loss of time and increased risk when onboarding new employees.
Adopting Rzilient for IT asset management
The choice of an agile and eco-responsible solution
For 4 years now, Kano Consulting has been relying on Rzilient to secure and simplify the management of its IT equipment.
Safety was not the first thing we thought about. Above all, we needed an agile, flexible, economical and eco-responsible solution.
In this sense, the choice of Rzilient was primarily made for its Green IT dimension, focused on its Green IT dimension and the possibility of sourcing refurbished equipment, for purchase or lease. All in an organized process allowing each employee to receive equipment delivered on time, configured and secured.
“What is important for us is that every new employee has a PC ready to use as soon as they arrive. My experience has shown me that this is not systematic in all businesses and that it can hinder successful onboarding. Today, Rzilient allows us to manage the technical aspect of the employee relationship from end to end.”
Security, a key point in the evolution of the partnership
Security is inherent to the platform, from the control of the hardware (preconfigured and secure) to the remote control, making it possible to erase data in the event of loss or forgetting a computer.
Tomorrow, if an employee forgets their PC on the train, we can delete the data remotely, and that was an important point for us.
The concrete case of deploying an antivirus via the IT asset management platform
With the evolution of the range of managed services offered by rzilient, Kano Consulting was able to easily strengthen the security of its IT infrastructure.
Deploying an antivirus on all machines was done in a few clicks via MDM.
It's like a click of a button: we made the request to rzilient and everything was installed directly from the platform via MDM, in record time.
The concrete benefits
The collaboration with Rzilient allowed Kano to win by:
- Agility and flexibility : solutions adapted to specific needs, but also financial flexibility thanks to leasing.
- security : centralized management, homogeneous IT infrastructure and risk management thanks to MDM.
- Customer service : a responsive and committed team, always available to support.
- Eco-responsibility : use of reconditioned machines, in line with the company's CSR policy.
“We like to work with actors who are similar to us and who are agile, which is clearly the case with Rzilient.”
And tomorrow?
Thanks to this collaboration, Kano can now fully focus on its development and recruitment goals, while relying on an IT environment that is reliable, secure and aligned with its values of agility and responsibility.
