Transforming the User Experience with Microsoft Endpoint Manager

Opening a new school is daunting and presents major IT considerations, as technology is essential to facilitating communication, managing resources, and providing a seamless learning environment for students and teachers alike. In their earliest days, Cristo Rey had to grapple with IT fragmentation, disparate systems, and inefficiencies associated with siloed resources. They had no solution in place to centralize endpoint control.

In 2021, Cristo Rey Research Triangle High School was established to provide eager Triangle-based students with a rigorous college preparatory education. They faced a demanding task to integrate technology into their educational framework and infrastructure.

Transforming the User Experience with Microsoft Endpoint Manager

Opening a new school is daunting and presents major IT considerations, as technology is essential to facilitating communication, managing resources, and providing a seamless learning environment for students and teachers alike. In their earliest days, Cristo Rey had to grapple with IT fragmentation, disparate systems, and inefficiencies associated with siloed resources. They had no solution in place to centralize endpoint control.

Challenges

  • Security Risks Due to Lack of Processes/Policies
  • Limitations to Support for Remote Workers

Benefits

  • Cost reductions, Increased Efficiency, & Security
  • Improved Remote Worker Support
  • Decreased Complexity of IT Ecosystem

By implementing Microsoft Endpoint Manager (MEM), a transformative shift occurred. Remote staff, educators, and students alike found themselves empowered by standardized systems, a unified IT environment, and enhanced security controls. MEM not only addressed the immediate challenges, but also paved the way for a future-ready IT infrastructure, fostering a more productive and resilient educational experience.

  • Cost reductions, increased efficiency, and better security
  • Improved remote worker support

In 2021, Cristo Rey Research Triangle High School was established to provide eager Triangle-based students with a rigorous college preparatory education. They faced a demanding task to integrate technology into their educational framework and infrastructure.

Couldn't Be Happier!

In the run-up to opening the school [in 2021], a lot of different systems were purchased by different people. Now we have standard systems. It is easier to maintain and use. We couldn't be happier.
