The Challenge
Food distribution company Lekker Foods decided to bring its IT management in-house to better protect itself from cyberattacks, which have recently plagued its competitors and customers. Lekker also wanted more control over its tech stack and to always be the #1 priority. Lekker has a complex technology environment, with employees in warehouses, delivery drivers, and employees both in offices and working remotely. The nature of the food distribution industry means the company has to be cost-effective in its solutions, which led Lekker to Atera's remote monitoring and management system.
The Solution
Lekker Foods chose Atera's remote monitoring and management system to address its IT management needs. Atera is a cost-effective solution that allows Lekker's IT Manager, Robert Dick, to respond quickly to employee issues, troubleshoot devices and servers remotely, and automatically patch software to keep the tech stack up-to-date and secure. Atera's platform is customizable, enabling Lekker to implement various security software and tools tailored to the company's specific business needs. With integrations and APIs, Robert can purchase and sync Atera with the tools that are best for the company, rather than being limited to products recommended by a provider. This flexibility and control over the tech stack have significantly improved Lekker's IT management capabilities.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
