Housing Association - (Move to Windows 10 Laptops)

Embracing mobility by adopting a laptop first strategy

INTEGY recently helped a housing association make a significant upgrade to their IT infrastructure by moving to Windows 10 laptops. This move was made necessary by the COVID-19 pandemic, which required the association's employees to work remotely.


INTEGY was able to help the association improve their mobility and flexibility by deploying Windows 10 laptops, which have proven to be a critical tool in allowing the association to continue to operate effectively during this challenging time. The deployment of Windows 10 laptops has also allowed the association to take advantage of the many features and benefits of Microsoft 365 (M365).


The housing association is now able to use more features from M365, including improved security and increased positive experiences with IT. With the enhanced security features of Windows 10 and M365, the association has been able to better protect its data and devices, giving its employees peace of mind when working remotely.


Another significant advantage of the move to Windows 10 laptops is that it has allowed the association to improve its mobility. With the ability to access their work desktop from anywhere, on any device, the association's employees can now work more efficiently, regardless of their location. This has been especially important during the COVID-19 pandemic, as it has allowed the association to continue to operate effectively while working remotely.


Working with INTEGY on this project was a major factor in its success. INTEGY's expertise and experience in deploying Windows 10 laptops were invaluable, and they were able to guide the association through the entire process, ensuring a smooth and seamless transition. The INTEGY team was able to work closely with the association's IT team to understand their specific needs and requirements, and tailor their approach to ensure a successful outcome.


In conclusion, INTEGY's expertise and experience in deploying Windows 10 laptops, combined with the benefits of Windows 10 and M365, has enabled the housing association to improve its mobility, security and positive experiences with IT. The association now has a highly secure IT infrastructure that can grow and evolve with its changing needs, as well as improved security and usability features that help ensure the protection of its data.


Working with INTEGY has been a key factor in the success of this project and has provided the association with the peace of mind that comes with a robust and reliable IT infrastructure.

At INTEGY, we’re passionate about enabling organisations to embrace the future of work, especially when innovation and agility are at the heart of their mission. Recently, we had the privilege of supporting a client whose business serves as a launchpad for startups, providing the technology and equipment needed to kickstart their journey.  The Challenge: Outdated IT for a Growing Organisation Our client’s IT infrastructure was a traditional setup, with user accounts and devices tightly bound to Active Directory. This configuration required devices to maintain network connectivity to on-premises servers, creating operational limitations. With the facility expanding to three separate locations, this approach no longer supported their need for flexibility, scalability, and efficiency. Startups thrive on speed and adaptability, and their IT systems needed to reflect those principles. The reliance on traditional IT was slowing them down, creating unnecessary overhead, and limiting their ability to provide the seamless experience their customers expected. The Solution: A Cloud-Native Transformation We transformed their IT environment into a modern, cloud-native setup: Entra ID for Identity Management Every device is now joined to Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), shifting identity management to the cloud. This eliminates the need for on-premises servers, offering secure access from anywhere. Intune for Device Management Devices are now managed through Microsoft Intune, enabling streamlined policy enforcement, application deployment, and security updates, all delivered from the cloud. Enhanced Security with Zero Trust Principles We implemented a Zero Trust security model, ensuring that devices and users are authenticated and compliant before accessing resources. Defender for Endpoint provides enhanced threat protection and visibility across their environment. Simplified User Experience By decoupling devices from on-premises dependencies, we empowered their users to work from any location with a secure, seamless experience. Scalability and Agility With their new cloud-native IT framework, our client is no longer constrained by physical infrastructure. They can now scale operations effortlessly as they open new locations and onboard new startups. The Results: Flexibility, Efficiency, and Growth The move to a cloud-native configuration has been a game-changer for our client. They’ve gained: Operational Efficiency : IT management is simpler and faster, reducing administrative overhead. Improved User Experience : Users now enjoy consistent and reliable access to systems, regardless of location. Scalability : Expansion to new sites no longer requires complex IT overhauls. Security : Advanced cloud security tools ensure their data and devices remain protected. By embracing modern IT, our client is better positioned to serve their customers and focus on what matters most: empowering innovation for startups. Helping You Move Forward If your organisation is grappling with the limitations of traditional IT and looking to make the leap to a cloud-native future, we’re here to help. Let’s transform your IT and unlock your potential.
